new soundtrack is fire

[Father McKenzie]

i love the new soundtrack, especially the one that plays when you are in game while exploring, it reminds me of Darkwood

what are your thoughts everyone?

[Surface Dweller]

It is really refreshing to have some music for those long lonely adventures on chenarus and it’s just as good as Namalsk music, but I do wish some of the tracks were a bit longer.

DayZ has music? Now i know why so many people
"just drop dead".. Boppin along listening to tunes...

[TemplarScott]

music on dayz is not a good idea you need to have quiet so you can hear any slight noise around you,,music in dayz lol lots of deaths for people who have this on i turned it off

[Boxpok]

Is this supposed to be a game soundtrack? Where is the theme song? That is the only thing that would make real sense on this soundtrack. Everything will remain, perhaps with the exception of Tisy, something that was enough to hear once and all that remains is to forget.

Not the right game for ambient music. You need to hear the environment. The music is only distracting which is why I have disabled it.

It´s also quite repetitive and constantly plays the same theme no matter if you are at the airfield, tisy or the beach so it becomes annoying fast.

Distracting and annoying is what I think about this music.

First thing i do in most games is, turn the music off.

[etwas]

its just ambient music - it shouldnt distract from other game sounds. at least it didnt for me running the namalsk theme.

i find the soundtrack itself very well done. that guy (Dikolson) clearly shows some production skills. a bit short maybe with just 25 minutes of runtime - i was hoping the actual ambient sounds from the game (which sum up to 2 hours of music) were also included.

lmfao I think you just found the sollution to ALL those "no reason" threads.

I’m skeptical about what I’ve heard on a video so far. Haven’t played since the update so maybe later tonight…..I do greatly enjoy the Namalsk soundtrack.

I can also agree that something like this is and can be distracting from very important game audio cues…..I had my music on Namalsk turned down far enough to hear it but still be able to hear footsteps.

Just seems like an odd addition to the game, especially how many years later…..I don’t want to “complain” about dev choices, but this is one of those where I feel they could’ve directed that time and effort into simple fixes and maybe AI touch ups.

music or no music, it doesnt change for me
