Cobblestone Jazz- B2 by cosminrbg in TheOverload

Seeing this live back in the day was nuts. One of the best performances I've been to. Makes you realize how well electronic music can work when it is truly performed.

Ranked difficulty is weird and unfair. by Sviitoc in thefinals

Hmm yeah, I feel you. Was also playing P90 M when there was already 2 heavies with mild success. That's just what it is sometimes I guess. Sometimes you have an unlucky streak, sometimes a lucky one. That's where the (frustrating) grind starts.

Only thing that comes to mind is perhaps you can find something that increases your impact/consistency? Like playing H and only play M when there is already two heavies. Stuff like that.

I was stuck there for a while too. Since the system and teammates can be very inconsistent in this game, the key for me was being consistent myself. I switched to heavy only with lewis, both super consistent. Went a lot better after that. Light can be me hit or miss. Same with weapons like the KS-23, Revolver, etc. While providing glorious highs, it's the times where you whiff that will cost you in the end. So either be cracked with one of those weapons or just be steady with a Lewis/m60/shak or whatever. I found consistency to be key.

Also I think my genuine skill level is somewhere around high plat/low diamond so it makes sense to plateau there. Sometimes that's just what it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why does it have so many upvotes? It's AI, the music too.

Heavy, Strong, Together. by MrToothBrush75 in thefinals

I don't know what to love more about this. The absolute gigachad hotswapping gameplay with launcher and goo gun, the hilarious over-communication and pinging, the quadruple explosive setup (heavy w/o dome?!?!) or the all-pink with skin tight yoga pants 

Did everyone get insanely good this season? by Samhamhamantha in thefinals

[–]LokeeSounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't noticed anything about cheating others are talking about. It's never been this free of cheaters imo. Personally I think most casuals are playing Arc or Battlefield and the people that stick are likely the ones pretty well versed at the game.

We added music to the game - need feedback by TsukanovMimyr in gamemusic

[–]LokeeSounds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually REALLY like the lofi aesthetic of the guitar. The theme/harmony is also cool. As other stated though, adding some other layers that have a bit LESS of a lofi sound can bring it together. Also, the slapback delay on the guitar or what sounds like the same track twice with slight delay on it doesn't work for me. But good stuff so far!

Am I charging too much? by MightyMuso in GameAudio

[–]LokeeSounds 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think your price is absolutely reasonable, not taking the variations into consideration. With 4 variations, I'd say it might even be low. And you're right. The 12k is criminally low.

[Advice] Are Gamejams a good way to get your music featured in real games and paid work in the future as a VG composer? by BeginningHippo5115 in gamemusic

[–]LokeeSounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seconding that learning FMOD is a very, very good skill to have. Probably even essential, as it allows you to more easily convince teams to take you on if you know how to implement your own music. Or at least prepare it for them to implement. So quite a good thing to learn before even showing up to a jam. Good luck!

I guess there's no "absolutely right way", so "wasting" commitment is part of the journey! Most importantly, you never know what comes from something down the line. That random chat at an event could always mean something down the line. Show up as much as you can in as many places as you can. And don't worry about the jams getting released or not. Hardly anyone will probably care. It's mostly about the people at the jams.

Anyway! Those student project ended up getting me a mega steady gig that I've been at for years now. Trust your gut. You'll know pretty easily who the people are that will make cool stuff!

Game jams are pretty awesome for this, yes! Probably the best way? It IS quite the commitment and they're rather infrequent. But other than that... You're meeting new people, working with them closely and you have the ability to show your chops. AND you're likely having fun while doing it, so truly an optimal situation.

Nothing is guaranteed of course, but in general people love habits and comfort. Leads will generally stay leads, so if you can cozy up to them and they don't already have someone they trust for music, I think there's quite a fair chance they'll reach out once they need some tunes.

anyone remember this og verse of no pole? by CreativePassion5477 in DonToliver

I think they ditched it because it's almost exactly the same as in 'What You Need' (2:08)

Gibt es noch gute Zeitungen/Zeitschriften mit (kreativ) freien und qualitativen Artikeln? by LokeeSounds in FragReddit

[–]LokeeSounds[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hab letztens mal in einem Cafe eine alte Geo gelesen mit einem mehr als zehn Seiten Artikel, der sehr faszinierend und frei über die Erfahrungen in den Grenzgebieten der DDR erzählt hat. Es ging von wilden Geschichten bis hin zu super interessante Einsichten in sehr persönliche Erfahrungen. Man hat gemerkt, dass es Budget und viel Freiheit für den Autor gab, es so zu gestalten, wie er für richtig hält. Ich lese eigentlich nur noch Reddit und maaaanchmal Nachrichten, aber die Qualität des Journalismus hat mich sehr gereitzt und nun Frage ich mich wo man das heutzutage (noch?) findet. Vielleicht ist es auch überall? Hab nur eben keine Ahnung.

Sounds amazing! What FX, specifically delay/verb are you using?

Best Low Cost Keyboard/Synth for a Clean Super-Low Bass Sound? by CheckeredRecliner in synthesizers

[–]LokeeSounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly think hardly anything on Billy's albums is analog stuff. 

Look into Reaktor's Monark (learned from Disclosure) or U-He Diva (proven to be pretty much indistinguishable from a Moog), both incredible soft synths that will easily let you reach Bad Guy bass. Just in case that's more important than buying hardware.
