Easter Egg Found?

genesickazegenesickaze Member Posts: 0 Arc User
Earlier this evening, myself along with Eric Klauss (whom discovered this), Nuhir H'deen@kamakazai and Magneo Ignatius@limedragoon came across something, that we believe to be an Easter Egg of sorts. It is sound that plays in various locations across the galaxy, occurring more frequently in the corner locations and some border edges of each Sector Space, and Clusters as well. The sound itself, is not music/sound effect played in STO regularly, and is unique.

The Sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyRucNgEi5s&feature=youtu.be

Locations confirmed thus far, do not, some of these locations are actual devoid of any sound whatsoever, Music, Ambient, FX, total silence:

Sirius Sector:
North East Corner
South West Corner
Directly Underneath Sol System,


Regulus Sector:
North West Corner


Beta Urse:
South West Corner


Eta Erandi
North West Corner
Bottom, Eastern Sector Division Line
South Eastern Border
North East Corner

Gamma Orionis:

North East Corner (Devoid of Sound)
North (Middle, angle camera towards Border)
Sector Border (Cestus/Galdonterre)
North West Corner
Western Border (Devoid of Sound)

B'Tran Cluster:
South West Corner

Pelia:
Various Locations along the border
North West Corner


Zeta Andromedae:
North East Corner (Devoid of Music)
East Border (Devoid of Music)
West Border Middle
South West Border
South East Corner

Alpha Trianguli
South Middle
South West Corner
North Border, Center
South East Corner
North West Corner



I will update this as Locations are found (If anybody else finds some, do let us know)

    Millions of years after your civilization has been eradicated and forgotten, we will endure. ... Our numbers will darken the sky of every world.

    wrong game.... maybe cryptic is working on mind control with sounds... or maybe Iconions are real and they are already here.

    Warning , silly post inc.

    *Puts on newly washed tinfoil hat.*

    It's some sort of subliminal message, like: "Wrong direction, Turn around.", "Buy more Master Keys." or "Bet you wonder how a dev's TRIBBLE sounds?".

    Seriously though this is actually interesting. :)

    I frequent alot of map borders myself for some unknown reason, though I always have some out of game music playing in the background. *wonders what I've missed*

    After 3 years, I've finally turned music off all together in the game. But I agree, interesting!

    Arucanis arm also plays something (even when you have music disabled).

    I thought it might be radio bursts from nearby stars and planets, but they sound very different.

    New Thread tab on the top left of each forum sub-section.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    it's not a deflector... since those are continuous.... though the start does sound a lot like one of them. honestly it sounds like a phaser array mixed with a transporter beam to me.

    It's been there for a long time... Always thought it was some misguided attempt at making Sector space slightly interesting
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Anyone noticed another little egg? namely ds9 now has a rogue colony of eppohs - stand outside Quarks and you can see a grey eppoh run from an air vent into Quarks and then behind the counter before dissapearing...

    Guess we now know what meat is used in those Jumja sticks...

    Isn't that the sound of the Borg Assimilated engine?

    It's to be heard when you get your camera position next to it. And that often happens when you bump in a wall (sector or system map border).
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    I remember this sound far back in Beta. There was a black hole at the southern end of Regulus that this sound as well. One of the reasons why I turned off the music in STO.
