Surround Sound

netburnr

First of all, how many of ya'll game in surround sound? I currently don't so I'm not sure if Jumpgate Classic has surround, but I'm about to get some 3d headphones and I wanted to ask if Jumpgate Evolution will have surround. Something about being able to really hear the ammo flying past me just gives me goosebumps.

I have the Razor Barracuda 7.1 Headset. New Games support 7.1 and that is VERY COOL. The Bassbooster shakes my Head hehe.

5.1 surround speakers here.

5.1 headsets and speakers. the headsets dont work that well tho imo. they dont feel like real surround. i have the turtle beach ones, forgot what model. im sure the game will support surround. most games nowadays do.

i've got 5.1 surround speakers but i've never set them up. =P

Well get to work Slacker!

I've got a 5.1 receiver in my living room, but I don't want the cords running around the floor, and I'm too lazy to wire up the ceiling (and too poor to get ceiling speakers), so I'm stuck in the land of 3.1 for now.

I used to use headphones for better immersion in the game. Lately, I just leave the headphones plugged in, but don't put them on. There's enough noise to let me know what's going on without distracting me from what else I'm doing.

I have been in the 5.1 bandwagon for some time though I dont remember ever hearing actual surround sound from my rear speakers... (of course the reason was unknown to me but no more.. I was receiving 2 channel data instead of 5 channel data).

I now Im having 'true' surround so I hope one day that Jumpgate Evolution does use it. Id think that most probably Jumpgate Classic doesnt, that the most you could get could be a clone from both fronts but what do I know.

It would be awesome if it had it.

We used the 3D headsets extensively when testing Auto Assault and they work great, maybe better than 5.1 speakers sometimes. Most games should work fine with them I would imagine.
