Ear rape on startup for the game servers advert.

When launching Contagion the first 'advert' has a good volume level. *I dont know what they are called... sponsors maybe? But I shall call them adverts for now.* BUT the second advert is very VERY loud. Could the sound levels be adjusted on start up to save everyones' hearing.

<Insert comment about RIP for headphone users>

I'm a headphone user, what with crappy neighbors always feeling annoyed by
basically everything, and I noticed your problem somewhat painfully.

I like to add that it doesn't get better if you already have set the in game volume
to a preferred setting. On next launch, the game itself kept that setting, but
the intro still pretty much screams at you full volume.
(Also: Frag not Lag made me lol pretty hard the first time, as I had trouble with
performance)
Not to be stingy, really, we always could mute the sound and raise the volume after
starting the game (or putting on those headphones), so it's really not a pressing issue.

Agreed. It's way louder than the actual game and not controlled by the in-game volume(as far as I can tell).

If they are pinion adverts you can block them in your hosts file, i already block pinion urls/ ip's so that is maybe why i have yet to see any ads.

http://piniongg.blogspot.com.au/ this blog tells you how to do so if indeed they are pinion ads /server plugins.

We are talking about what happens when you launch the game, also I have yet to see any ads on the servers I play on though, so I wouldn't need anything like that.
