What about music in Matchmaking?

Hey all.

As the title says, how about a little bit of music in matchmaking? I’m not saying I want shrieking monks throughout the whole match, but maybe a little tidbit here and there during some epic moments? Maybe near the end of the match? A good example would be Invasion, except a bit more noticeable and a bit longer too. Of course, this is all toggle-able.

I find there’s nothing more epic than a small accompaniment of awesome music threading its way through the match, especially when it’s nearing the end.

Post your opinions!

Hehe. Shrieking Monks.

If I wanted to listen to music during Matchmaking, I’d listen to music. It’s distracting.

Music in MM would be dumb because you wouldn’t be able to hear it because of all the gun fire and explosions.

I wouldn’t mind hearing 4:35 during matchmaking (when winning a match.)

Yes, but would you really want to purchase the OST for the game and buy some kind of audio setup to put in the same room as your xbox? NO. The music would obviously be optional.

I have a laptop and excellent speakers. I could also stream the music from my laptop to my Xbox 360.

That’s a lot more hassle than it already being in the game.

It could be an interesting novelty to have in the last minute of objective-based game types, especially when the scores are very close, but I don’t think I’d include it if it were my choice; listening to the same piece of music dozens of times each day would become very monotonous (perhaps literally).

Wait a sec… I’m pretty sure there was music in Invasion every time you had to fall back or push forward… ?

Perhaps, but that way I could choose what I wanted to listen to.

I remember a voice going “Fall back soldier” and music playing.

Damn! :confused: You win. But for those who don’t have laptops with good speakers are computing know-how it definitely wouldn’t hurt to have it included since it would likely be togglable.

Yeah, there was. I wouldn’t mind a bit of music at really important parts, but otherwise, no thank you!

Very good point. As long as it’s optional :stuck_out_tongue:

Wait, but that’s what OP said he wanted.

This is a great idea, some music that can be suspenseful toggled with music that will intensify the action. I mean if there is an option to mute it people shouldn’t complain. Awesome for Customs too and Infection! Forget the haters.

Are you kidding me 70% of the posts so no thank you or would rather listen to their own music.

CoD handled it quite well. I would like to see something similar.
