Annoyance: Horns vs. Motorcycle

Which annoys you more:
- The current implementation of Horns (that is, it's available in the Supply Stashes and nowhere else).
- The presence of the Motorcycle (sound and the fact that it exists).

    Motorcycles. They are messing up the music I`m listening to and I want to hear PWI's sounds as well so turning the volume down is not an option.

    Horns are just chat messages so they don't bother me at all.

    Motorcycles. Not because of the fact that it might ruin the game's setting, but merely because of the dammn sounds. It is really annoying and doesn't even sound like any good motorcycle I'd know off.

    horns, but this may be because i always play with sounds turned off. if i had to hear the motorcycles as well as see those eyesores, that might be enough to turn the balance.

    I hate the g*y farting sound of them irl and hate them the same in game. Whoever gets a motorcycle in a game with swords, dragons and magic is ret**ded.

    If they took the annoying idle sound that the motorcycle does, I wouldn't care, it's annoying hearing it "****" every few seconds, horns wouldn't bother me if they took out that stupid pointless box and for all the other pointless moaners out there, made it available to block the horns.

    I have the box for horns moved to behind the system buttons, so it's not in my way. And the chats themselves aren't used often enough to be too large of an annoyance to me.


    The motorcycles, on the other hand, are a pain to see and hear. Considering I have in-game sounds up so I can hear when someone's channeling/casting something against me or can hear status ailments without having to actually see them go off, it's a bit of a royal pain to listen to the bikes whenever one's nearby.

    At this moment I would say motorcycles. Horns aren't used much since they only come from supply stash.

    I should try to do what truekossy does... move it behind the system buttons lol ._."

    Anyway.. voting for the motorcycles. The noise is WAY annoying...

    Horns.

    I play with sounds off outside dungeons so I can listen to music. For the looks of them, meh, the fact that there's a bike in my game really doesn't bother me.

    - Horns tick me off to no end. As soon as I see one, I move the window to the upper right corner and resume my activities of harvesting, semi-afk flying or fighting. It's a pain that the window position is reset each time though.

    - Motorcycles earned a fast tolerance from my part. I don't like them and I will never have one, but seeing them after a long period of seeing things this way:

    '!
    What is that thing!

    (one half-second passes)

    Oh, it's just a motorbike. *shrugs and leaves*'

    As I play in lowest settings, I generally don't see them too often. What tends to bug me more is when I am close to a gryphon. Their wings are too bright for my taste.
    Well, to tell the truth, I play in lowest settings because I have to and I muted all music and sound... A few reasons for that include the annoying Archosaur theme and tiger true form step noises.

    And so in terms of annoyance, horns win by default. And whoever opened stashes just for those... Well, *shrugs*

    something's weird with your UI. the horn channel window stays put in the upper left of my screen, on top of the mostly useless character info window, where i've long ago put it.

    For me it is the Motorcycles... I play with sounds but have yet to hear one, Of course my real pet-peeve is which 5yr old got their way with the motorcycles. A 'time glitch'? Really PW? For freaking real? That was your best way to get a futuristic piece of Machinery into PWI? SSSSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO this means we will be seeing gas-pumps in every city? NO? Why not? Motorcycles need gas to go vroom-vroom... Veno's pets need food to 'operate properly' (not really but for full benefits yes they need food'. BUT wait!!! You mean a tank of gas will be the price of a piece of gold? You can keep the bike. Why not a Bicycle?....... a motorcycle? for real? b:angry

    They basically go on a monotonous, unimpressive 'vrrrr~ putt putt' a few times before a pause and that is all. Of course they don't have any idle animation. Still... Booooooooooooooooorn to be wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilllllllllddddd~!

    Gas pumps? No need, just fill these toys... I mean trade-of-the-art machines with pure water... ergh, I mean super fuel ersatz to make it work. And who cares if venoes feed their pets with that... It's universal energy in a bottle!!

    Horns, easily.

    Motorcycles don't block part of my screen while fighting mobs/bosses etc, & IMO are much easier to ignore. Although I highly dislike the idea of the motorcycles being in game at all as well.

    You have never stood next to one of those ****ing bikes with the sound on for more than 5 minutes have you? We might complain too much, but some of the things we complain about are perfectly valid complaints.
