I guess maybe I'm in a bad mood because Trinity doesn't work anymore.. and I can't grab Macaroon because wowinterface is down.. But 30 seconds into the game... All I hear is.. boom boom boom... from the left speaker to the right speaker... boom boom... boom... boom boom boom... There are so many hunters on my server and every fricken one of them has a devilsour... But I do like my new balance druid spells!

Thanks for reminding me, I knew I forgot to do something on my hunter last night :)

I haven't met anyone else other than myself who almost always has all sound turned off while playing. I just play a million better and more focused when I don't have crazy noise in my ears constantly. My raid performance improves considerably when it's just me and my health bars alone and quiet.

I turn off the background music, but I always leave on the sound effects.
It can be life or death on a PvP server if you can hear a rogue stealth sound from behind you.
That being said....

It's an EARTHQUAKE wherever I go!Yea, I pretty much have to have sound as well, mainly for the 'rogue sound'. But that thundering crap's gotta go.

I turned on the in-game music yesterday for the first time in many months. After a few hours, music had to go. I do leave ambient sounds and other game sounds active though - it's easier to react to some things.
The corehounds are causing the earthquakes though, plus the heavy footfalls. I'm pretty sure the devilsaur just have noisy footsteps, but no shaking.

I can deal with the constant kettle drums but the screen shake is what pushes it over the edge for me.

I've had sound turned off for probably 2-3 years now. Anything that I might need to hear I have represented visually somewhere on my screen (shot rotations, screen flashes, cooldowns, etc) and so I never really felt like I needed WoW's sound. If anyone has an Engineer mount, they understand. I don't PvP much, so it doesn't really matter about rogues. I'd rather listen to my own music/background noise.
And I spent a lot of time in Molten Core trying to tame a REAL Core Hound, but annoying problems with pathing and my crappy UI (thanks to the patch) made it more difficult than it was worth.

Hyjal was one of the late bloomers, I waited all day and give up trying to get on at 11:30 eastern.
They next morning I got on for about 10 minutes and poof... server crash
try again 30 minutes later and was on for 15 min and then poof ... server crash.
Hyjal was up and down like a basket ball, some of my characters would be thrown back to where I logged on and others wouldn't.
I had 1495 arena points so no equipment upgrades available there :-(
SmartBuf isn't working yet
Healbot isn't working yet
So far I pretty much HATE this patch.
none of my addons are working, WowAce quit doing direct serving of thier files so I have to get them second hand from curse.com
almost every website for addons is crippled or working pretty slow.
all I wanted was a little wow, I don't want to have to fight to get it work, I'm not that particular about having to respec everything.

Damn I have not seem the Devilsaur but have seen the core hounds a lot of folks have them, not sure which one I want on my hunter, he is 70 so should be able to get any of those lower level ones easy. And yeah the whole screen shaking is crazy.
Always been a BM hunter now every hunter is gonna go BM for a time and get the pets until they get tired of them and go back to MM or Survival.

I turned the sound back on after patch 2.1 when they redid some of the music. Then turned it back off a day later.
As for rogues, meh

A dev has posted that the earthquake effect caused by corehounds is going to be removed.
Yeah, hunter pets = annoying.
Can't imagine if I was boxing im- that earthshake thing is gonna go I'm pretty sure.
I'm just so pumped because this patch upped my boomkin/shaman synergy in a crazy way. I'm melting serious face. >) Wheeeee!

It's an EARTHQUAKE wherever I go!You are my HERO.
Personally, I run with all my sound off or turned very low. A buddy of mine has a mod that leaves the stealthing sound untouched by the sound configurations, or something similar - really handy for me, if I can get off my lazy rear and go get it. Personally, I focus much better with my headphones rocking out something that puts me in the mood to flow. Just me, my flowy musics, and my shamans. :D
