another idea - muting game sounds?

Fri Dec 31, 2004 6:57 am

Does anyone else think it would be nifty to have the option of turning off the game sounds? Or am I the only person here who listens to music while I play games?

I think you can just right click and go to Flash options, but I'm not sure. Why not just turn down the system volume?

..or just turn off the sound altogether? :P

I have the same probs and wrote to TNT before, but they make changes only for some games.

Hearing the games sound/music interfere with my music irritates me. I don't play the games where i can't turn off the sound anymore.

well - some people find it easier to listen to things like the yahoo radio so they get their genre of random songs, but some convert there cd's to there computer harddrive and mix up the sound:-p.(Do you have any idea how many songs can fit in one GB when converted in mp3 format? Useful)

and unfortunately right clicking does not work, already tried that. (and just double checked)

It would be a good idea despite the other options. I'm not good at Flash, but it seems to be fairly easy to implement. TNT needs more work. They probably just sit around and drink smoothies now.

Alot of games do not let you turn off the sound. Some do though...

And i think switching off the sound makes some games work faster.

I think you're missing the point. These little things that can be corrected by turning some hardware off are absolutely not the kind of things Neo needs to work on. They need to work on the bigger picture. Banner ads, layout, banner ads. :P

Id also love a pause button on the games :lol:

But if i turn off the hardware, i wouldn't be able to hear my cds or mp3.

The ones that can have pause buttons without the game becoming exploitable already have them.

maruka, for me that would mean all sound off ... I would love to be able to turn the sound off on all the games. As it is now, I keep my speakers turned off and keep a little boombox near the computer. But I'd just as soon play a cd or whatever on the computer while I'm online.

A pause button on all the games would be fabulous! for things like the doorbell ringing, our tribe of cats deciding to have an all out war while I'm in the middle of a game and don't want to lose the score ...

No, I mean the speaker. Just the speaker.
