The loud sounds by some pet(s), if in fact it is a pet, drives me away from that area. If I turn down sound then I can not hear the other games sounds which I want to hear.
I hope MA can fix that if I am not the only one that it bothers.
 
Rocktropia Kong makes the sound over and over again. Only one I know off the top of my head that can clear an area. I will assume it is a bug and that they didn't intentionally set out to annoy the crap out of everyone. Sounds in general are messed up. We'll see after the next vu.
 
the kitten is pretty annoying, if I have sound on and it cries, my cats jump up and run to the window....

less and less now tho, I think they're getting use to it
 
Come to Arkadia and stay planet side everything is so quiet and serene... Almost to quiet....
 
These are the only Pet Sounds I like to hear ;)

 
All of them are irritating, not to mention the stubborness of some devs to keep some tameable mixed with mobs that there's nothing to do with their kind, example, nusul puny among zadul and halix on Arkadia. A no pet zone or a kill pet zone is a top priority necessity.
 
Agree. I was very disappointed by the dog and cat pets as even they annoy me (i'm a dog/cat lover)
I enjoy my Nusul because it's totally quiet. Even the Atrox pet and the panda make noise too often IMO.

Bit Off Topic but ....
Was so long since I was on Ark - did they fixed those annoying sounds from guns? I used to hear some people shooting off my radar....
 
Which ones? Only one I knew that did that was not from ark. It was the Tommy gun or something like that. The other that was annoying was the si blade from cyrene.

I haven't heard any herman and pirons from a long distance. Although right now, you can't hear much of anything on arkadia due to a platform problem (as I'm told).
 
I actually find the bunny sounds annoying. I love bunnies, but except for maybe the occasional sneeze they're pretty quiet animals. The ones in game however make chittering noises like chipmunks almost constantly.
 
I got a reply from support and they said that the sounds are caused by the programming of planet partners no matter what planet they are on and they must be fixed by the partners. I hope they can get it done soon:).
 
It's the purple kong pet that makes the horrific noise. It really is much much louder than any other noise in the game. I think that if they cant fix it then it should have its vocal cords ripped out.

I don't mind any of the pet noises, it is the volume level that I object to.

Starting to call BS on MA always blaming the PP's.

Hit boxes were fine until MA made a massive change to them two years ago. MA fixed calys, but told the other planets it is their own responsibility to fix it...and never gave them the means with which to do it. SO now rhinos still sit on top of you and skeletons are impossible to hit when they are lunging etc etc etc.

I think the pet noises are just another way MA like to subtly screw with other PP's...just like hit boxes, and the ark sound problems, and server crashing us on huge shared oratan and kongs for the last 6 months when caly has had zero server crashes on large shared in the past year, and by keeping all the good UL stuff on caly instead of making a more diverse generic loot pool available on all the planets...the list goes on forever.

Nothing new there MA plays the blame game. Its not our fault its theirs.
 
Too bad we have no pigs yet..

"Insert a pig sound"
 
Well I experienced a similar situation in another MMO with music instruments used by players!
Devs gave the option of shut down that sound independently:wise:

Such an option should be implement sooner or later for pets in EU.
I have issue mostly with gorillas and I believe is by far the most annoying pet sound!
I care about this, because I spend lot of my time on RT and there are a couple guys who like to spawn their gorillas alot and that made me crazy (growl is loud and aweful) :mad:
When I saw 'em I'm changing place immedietely!!!

This is "must to fix" ASAP

This will be one of the reasons why planet partners will be allowed to choose which pets can be spawned on which planet and if abused, will be the demise of pets because you won't be able to get good use of your pets/investments.

Just seems to me that rocktropia needs to change the sound of the purple gorilla. End of story.. unless they did and ma won't publish it etc. Then that is another story.

What I don't like is the PP release cycle. Too long of sprints.. which aren't sprints. No reason why we should deal with no sound on ark or the Kong issue on RT if it was fixed for 3 months. Bad deployment/release cycle management.

This has been an issue that has frustrated me for the past 10 years, I don't know why they can't get their shit together.

i think this causes a lot of issues, PP basically release unfinished updates as they can't wait another week or two to bug test it fully, its now or in 6 months

Yeah I agree most pets are ok, its those damn kongs which are the problem it's a shame the PP's have to do that. There was a gun not long ago programmed on max volume anywhere on radar from a PP, actually I think it's an annoying PR stunt.

What would be nice is an agreed unofficial meeting place for pet owners, we seem to be all over the place. Maybe some pet trainers prefer solitude who knows. I spend much I my time at Itacha training mine as nice long walk ways to relax, although if there was a "known" general meeting point, I probably would spend time there to socialise more.

Last year during the LT hoard around Minopolos, there was the machine gun thing that was very loud and one (maybe that one) that shot clear across the field of view. You would be shooting an LT and this white line would come right across in front of you.
 
I'm kind of terrified if people are saying most pets are ok and its only kongs that are bad. Most pets are annoying as fuck, so kongs must be :eyecrazy:

I got an Atrox pup and my sister tamed a panther!
Both are very quiet most of the time and pleasent to have around.
But maybe there is an issue that we didn't faced yet as you complain and I believe you.
