I was suggesting recently a way to allow players to be able via the creation of a mechanism in game involving or engineers or other characters in the game (NPCs) by obtaining reputation or simply visiting some special places like the various companies Headquarters (Saud Kruger, Falcon Delacy ... etc etc) in order to obtain the opportunity as a pilot to modify the ship engines and power station sound. A ship should be able to muffle the sound, change it a bit, by trying a mix, a roll (controlled roll by learning how this thing work, developing a skill in managing the various variables of a sort of rolling random wheel... which out come will be a different sound...
By learning (and players need to discover how) how this works what to touch, what to set, and then press enact the change, an outcome will be heard.
The player without leaving the station will be able to try boosting the engines and also accelerate so to try the sounds (maybe even of the FSD charging loading .. all 3 things should be modifiable).
---
Additionally sounds that should be available and NOT ONLY CLIENT SIDE but for all, is possiblity for players to introduce additional comms coming from ATC, and also stuff like modifying the audio message with "PRE WRITTEN" sentences (to avoid issues on NSFW and other trolling or TOS breaking sentences) so the players will enjoy a MUCH MUCH larger number of voice overs when reaching and leaving a carrier but also the same for stations and settlements...
Voice overs should be variable too.. always offering a different (a mix of things that never make you feel listening to the same thing... like the voice overs were spoken not automatically but by really alive NPCs.. of course, just an illusion.
----
EXTRA: allow items (of the KITS) to be single pieces that can be obtained via ARX in game (raise the week give away to 500-600 at least if not even 800)
If one buys one items will have left item, right item, central antenna, right antenna, back right spoiler, back left spoiler.. and if one has it cannot use it on all ships.. it's gonna be MATERIAL in game, it is going to be used on one ship, dismountable and mountable on another but not that once u have it u have it for all the ships. This allows an immersive garage experience and they can also raise the prices of ARX with IRL currency because people will be buying single pieces instead of hugely useless kits of which they use only one item ... and the experience is immersive because u feel like in a garage... earning stuff to make your ship cooler... with effort and purpose and all is DIEGETIC.
---> how to make money for Frontier Developments?
Make this a 10-15 Euro max expansion for players who want to enjoy this quality. Allow different voices, Celeste, Verity for carrier and also random NPC voices.
And for the first thing said above, allow players to get rid of those Sport car sound under the Kraid MKII, allow players to get rid of the washing machine sound in the vulture.. and so on...
Who has this expansion will be able to enjoy such more immersive elements... and also enjoy the mechanisms behind it, like reputation raising to obtain access to specific sounds...
every ship will be really even more unique and players will feel more affectionate to these ships and the whole personalize your SPACECRAFT will also be more fleshed out into something u can almost touch... and also your carrier will feel much more complete, and docking and undocking more immersive...
Fdev would get money..
Otherwise just make it for free if u think it's not ok ... but I think people giving 10-15 Euro for such thing would be quite popular.
