Blade sounds

[Andriss]

I thought I could deal with the sound of my blade swishing through the air, but I can't anymore.

Whenever I have this particular blade out, it randomly sounds like I am swinging it. It doesn't happen when it's holstered on my back or I have any other blade out.

Since I'm too lazy to copy the stats, I'll post a screenshot. I bought this particular blade off the MS.

I get the same thing with the same blade. It happens anytime I jump on/off/over things or stand from crouch. Definitely movement oriented, and mostly in the vertical attitude.

I get the same problem with both the chitech and accumax level 36 blue fire blades. They do not have a fire animation, do not have the fire look, and do not make the fire sound. All they do fire oriented is do fire damage.

They do also annoy the crap out of me with the amount of swishing that occurs (agreed with the vertical movement suggestion)

yeah, I've owned that Fire Blade too. It doesn't light up w/fire unless you swing it and it makes the 'swooshing' sound when you jump up and down.

It's ok, I wouldn't worry about it, we've all survived.

That particular blade has been a known issue for us for a little bit.

Except I'm the paranoid type and think someone is chasing me with a blade. I got so annoyed one night I switched to a laser blade just to not have the sound.

I have the same incendiary blade and it does the same thing. I just did a search in this forum to make sure it is a known bug but I can live with it since it is cosmetic compared to other things that the developers need to address. It has also had a calming effect on me by reducing my tendency to needlessly jump around while running and even to holster the blade when not actually in combat.

Haha! That's what I did!! Then I figured I could just get another blade out and hop around.
