We are proud to announce today an upgrade of Board Game Arena sound environment 🙂
For a gaming service, our sounds were a little outdated and amateur. In particular we were receiving a lot of remarks about the "it's your turn" sound ("too loud", "annoying", ...), and finally a lot of you were using the "mute" function for all sounds on BGA.
Thus, we decided to improve this, as sounds are really an important part of the gaming experience.
At first, some time ago we introduced a Volume Control slider. Now you can adjust the volume to the appropriate level, anytime.
Then, we changed most of the default sounds. In particular, we choose a shorter & softer "it's your turn" sound to make it less annoying. We also tried to make the default sounds ambiance more homogeneous to have something coherent on the whole website.
We also introduced new sounds for some important events like the end of a game or when you are running out of time.
Important: if you customized your sounds in the past, you may not hear the new sounds. To enjoy them, go to the bottom of the Preferences/Sound page and click on "Reset all sounds to defaults":

Finally, we multiplied by six the number of available sounds in the "Sound Preferences" page.
With the possibility to customize 100% of the sounds played on BGA + the volume control, you now have the possibility to create a fun and enjoyable sound environment matching your tastes for your games here.
Enjoy!
Note: for those who dislike the new sounds, you can set the preferences to the old ones by choosing the following: Door Bell / Plop 1 / Friction / Friction / Door Bell.
音量控制和新音效
我们很自豪地宣布在今天升级BGA上的音效系统
作为游戏服务, 我们的音效有点过时和业余。
特别是我们收到了很多关于 "轮到你了" 的声音 ("太大声", "烦人",......) 的评论, 最后你们很多人都在使用BGA上的所有声音的 "静音" 功能。
因此, 我们决定改进这点, 因为声音确实是游戏体验的重要组成部分。
起初, 前段时间我们设计了一个音量控制滑块。
现在, 您可以随时将音量调整到适当的水平。
然后, 我们更改了大多数默认音效。
特别的, 我们选择了一个更短更柔和的 "轮到你" 的声音, 使它不那么烦人。
我们还试图使默认的声音氛围更均匀,使整个网站更连贯。
我们还为一些重要的事件引入了新的音效, 比如游戏结束或者你的时间不多了。
重要提示: 如果您在过去自定义了音效, 则可能听不到新的音效。
要享受它们, 请转到"首选声音"页面的底部, 然后单击选择 "将所有声音重置为默认值":
https://boardgamearena.com/#!preferences?section=sound
最后, 我们在 "声音首选项" 页面拥有多达6 倍的可用音效。
有可能自定义100% 的声音播放 bga + 音量控制, 你现在可以创建一个有趣和愉快的声音环境, 以在这里为您的游戏配合您的口味。
享受吧!
注意: 对于那些不喜欢新的音效, 你可以设置首选项到旧的通过选择: 门钟/plop 1/摩擦/摩擦/门钟。
