too chatty NPCs in Winter Event

ok, listening to them once a while is fun and probably brings some life in the scene but if they start speaking like psychos predicting the end of the world near a giant shopping mall then it is just...annoying.

Could their chatty behavior use some tunning down? And what is that Ferengi's "Q is genius and...so handsome" attraction towards Q? That reminded me of:

    Yes, yes it could use some toning down, (HAVE YOU GOT A FESTIVE TREAT TO TRY?) preferably before my Tactical (Epohhs, cute and friendly epohhs!) officer remembers the combination (Q is a genius....and so handsome...) to the ship's weapons locker (Peace is good for business!...just saying ;-)

    Surprised they didn't do that with the first patch, because it is extremely annoying. I turned off voices because of it.

    If it happened when you approached them, or have each one having a seperate timer or like 5 minutes, then it wouldn't be so bad.

    I might be the resident 'freaky epohh guy', but I want to stab that Romulan epohh lady with a P'epohh Mint Epohh (with bow)!

    I dunno how I could stab her with an epohh, but I would FIND a way to do so just to shut her up.

    if crisps and crisp packets existed in game i would open one up in front of that chef eat them then beat him to death with the empty crisp packet :D.

    seriously, i dont wear my headphones with any frequency any more so it lost what little elasticity it had and gets painful to wear for a short time. this is good because i dont hear these voices. but still even on low volume i hear this "aaaahhhhh!" coming from the chef at the end of one of his sentences every minute or so.

    trouble with adding very few quotes and voices to these quotes is the if the frequency of repeat is too quick, it's classified as spam and a flood. its a wonder the voluntary mods haven't censured their own cryptic friends for flooding the game for 24 hours. still it does need to be addressed, adding a few more quotes and spacing out the quote time from 10-30 seconds ea. to 5-10 minutes ea.

    "Kurland here !"
    Sorry wrong topic.


    P.S. I disabled the voice for the event. About 30seconds after first coming to the gazebo.

    Yeah I wonder if the devs just don't play their own game, or don't play with sound, or don't test their stuff before releasing it, or ignore QA feedback, or simply try to troll the players..

    Most voices are annoying as hell.

    It amused me the first time i heard it. Annoyed me after 3 days and it pisses me off massively at this time.

    Shouldn't be too hard to add a few lines of code that restrict those soundfiles to being played only once after you enter the zone.

    when that Mr.PiggyFace asks "do you have any recipe" then I just want to say, "yes, marijuana".

    Alas, it is impossible to do it

    It's annoying. I leave it on (and, truth be told, turn it up) because it annoys me.

    If Q doesn't make you feel annoyed, something is wrong.

    The voices still amuse me actually. Although going AFK right next to the Epohh lady tend to come with a rather saturated audioscape at those magical intervals... :P


    P.S.

    These mint Epohhs must be a myth. Only getting them white as snow. With bow. :(

    Same story here. I have to switch off the sound in order to bear the annoyance.

    What? Turned off the sound?! I can't get enough of these guys, especially the chef! Q is the most wonderful being I've ever known and I would like a tasty treat!
