Who will be a new composer/sound designer for Below Zero?

[deadbus]

Sound and music in trailer were so I amazing so I purchased game even while I didn't know anything about this game. Music and sound in game were also extremely good, I can't image how it can be playable without it or with something else.
So what devs will do with it in next addon? Another person or our old friend will be back to work?

Or they'll just contract it out to the original guy. Who knows.

Now that right there is fake news.

Sheesh. The guy called most of his co-workers thiefs, rapists, and murderers so they fired him.

Do they really want to have someone with that attitude in their office with them?

Are you talking about the previous sound designer?

I saw this coming within regards to Simon Chylinski. something to do with his views that didn't fit with unknown world's and they got rid of him. It was the forum community that blew it up beyond all recognition, i remember it well.

There is no point digging up the past like that, so who else is your choice for a new composer for the subnautica DLC?

[miklkit]

Ayup. The one who committed professional suicide.

Dunno who they have now but they have been experimenting with new sounds in the experimental branch. New tracks will show up one day and be gone the next.

Trailer with Simon Chylinski's music sold me this game. Will Ben Prunty's music has same power? We will see.

Even Kotaku wrote about Simon Chylinski's music:

The sound in particular has been praised by players.

According to that, it is not yet a done deal. would be nice to have it confirmed and then this thread has no further purpose. :P

The sound tracks get old fast. In order to protect my hearing I have to turn the music down to the point that the quieter tracks can barely be heard. There are places in the map that I rush through as quickly as possible in order to avoid the overly loud tracks.
As it is I basically have to play with no music at all.

I made the right decision dropping this company.

As long as it's instrumental only. His music's good, his voice is a depressing monotonous drone.

Apotygma Bezerk might be a good fit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5-9vIZyvTw

That guy had made two the of best sci fi soundtracks ever.

But then again it might be entirely possible that the Music could be reused from the base game and save on costs.

Wrong a well established artist with two highly acclaimed sci fi sound tracks behind him.
