I know a lot of people that want to listen to things but being it drops music or does not have a random function they would rather just not bother with it.<br /><br />I doubt they will add to it or update it being it is a one time thing and it will be gone with our garrisons next expansion, but maybe this test will help them get it right next time they add something like it.TheGrumpyElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621615711198405365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-20689459125934126012015-03-12T10:09:16.013-04:002015-03-12T10:09:16.013-04:00I hate when that happens, something in game I want...I hate when that happens, something in game I want to hear and it is always loud on vent, something on vent I want to hear and the in game sounds ramp up.

Still it's fun playing Silvermoon in the Blood Elf garrisons to make them a bit more homey.<br />It not remembering my selection when Iog off frustrates me no end, though. I feel like it should just keep playing whatever I told it to until I tell it to play something else. Chaining some together to make playlists would be pretty neat too, though.PlaidElfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15322405383723446243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-24543210085349306152015-03-12T02:54:18.424-04:002015-03-12T02:54:18.424-04:00I couldn't stand the Vale music until 5.4, whe...I couldn't stand the Vale music until 5.4, when it was replaced by a sadder, softer version.<br /><br />There was a melodramatic crescendo worthy of a black-and-white B movie about lovers tragically parting on a Tibetan peak.

I quite like the Alliance Garrison music. I could think of chaining it with Totems from Grizzly Hills and Jaina's Homeland theme - yes, a variation on Jaina's theme is in the Garrison music, but I'd like the original the original.<br /><br />Then I checked up and found that a) Jaina's theme is not available and b) the rolls play only once, for quite a short period. So I dropped the quest.<br /><br />And now it's staring at me all the time. :P<br /><br />Gráinnenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-27107518345241118092015-03-11T19:13:17.440-04:002015-03-11T19:13:17.440-04:00I have grabbed the quest on all my toons, but just...I have grabbed the quest on all my toons, but just can't get the motivation to actually go out and gather the pieces to put a jukebox together. Like 2B, I have turned of game music. IMHO, it interferes with my co-op game play. Friend talks on vent at same moment music ramps up and I can't hear them at all.. Music went quieter and quieter until it's only the sound effects. Then depending on who I am playing with, I need to turn off those sounds as well.

It was only about a year or two ago that I played with any game sounds on actually. Now, I raid with sound on and play without it other times. I will probably get the music scrolls for the achievement because apparently I'm an idiot. I doubt I'll ever listen to them though.To Bee or Not to Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10929748357206418382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-24815123008592495542015-03-11T11:26:31.180-04:002015-03-11T11:26:31.180-04:00I use it although it is still very lackluster.

There are plenty of beautiful pieces that haven't found their way to the Jukebox. Another thing that bothers me is the fact that you can't chain a selection. Many nice pieces like "Magic" are only 1 minute so it is impossible to listen to them in a loop. I'd rather couple them with another, longer piece that fits (e.g. some teldrassil or any oft the other NE themed works).<br /><br />I really hope that they add functionality to it, because I can see big potential in it, but it is just not ready for the moment.Rilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9015737272343810105.post-39849968418960770912015-03-11T08:11:12.095-04:002015-03-11T08:11:12.095-04:00I thought it was just me and I was doing something...I thought it was just me and I was doing something wrong. lol Glad to know I am not going crazy and it is not just me.
