Hey so I know you all probably think the same about the Whizbang Board Music I know there will be a few defenders with a few points and I get it, they tried something new and it does fit the theme and yadda yadda, but I think we can all agree that ultimately, it is an brain melting ear destroying atrocious anomaly for Hearthstone Board Music so I propose this, can we get a feature to toggle or choose (or not choose) certain Boards, like a Board Favorites tab? I mean it is really lame if I get the Whizbang Board to either turn off the music (this has never happened with any other Hearthstone Board Music to my knowledge/recollection), or just concede and hope my next match isnāt on the Whizbang Board because I enjoy the Music in Hearthstone, what do you all think? Does this change sound good? Will they ever implement such a change? Is this a āplayer/skill issueā? Do you for some reason enjoy the Whizbang Board Music?
Btw the Board Favorites tab doesnāt necessarily have to prevent getting the Board you donāt want, it just has to increase the likelihood of matching with someone who has the same sort of Board Favorites, because if it is a Hard Toggle that you can Never match with certain boards, that might be too much.
And I was rejoicing that Nathria was rotating outā¦
No, more of a āQoLā issue.
Apart from the Transfer Student issue, you and the opponent donāt have to play on the same board.
Reminded me of Gwent, where there were multiple boards available (something like BGs apparently have), and you could choose to always see your own board (deck-specific) or the one of the ādefendingā player.
Itās just a feature that the game could have.
I dunno why they bothered releasing some selected tracks on certain platforms, when there are excellent playlists available, such as this one:
itās legally licensed, also can allow them to release it in an uncompressed format for maximum audio quality you might not get from ripping from a game
While on the subject of Transfer Student which dev do you think likes them enough to go through the trouble of updating them for every new board that gets released? I always wondered who she was the golden child to
it being legally licensed will allow the original composers to be more properly recognized/compensated if desired, although admittedly I donāt know why companies will so often pick/choose which tracks get released instead of releasing the whole thing and leaving people wondering what the names of certain songs are and not having a way to listen to them, I donāt know if they did it for the hearthstone ost but some people when they listen to/experience a piece of art just want to have it in the maximum quality possible
I donāt think author names usually get included along with audio files in game files, thereās no real need for them to be there, sometimes people will just upload and not credit anything
takes up memory for somewhere the vast majority of people will never go to, iām sure it may be included as a text data type somewhere for a credits screen or something like that, but probably not to accompany/tag an audio file since it doesnāt do anything for the processing of the game/audio, it would be like building a building and putting the builder credits somewhere in the inner pipes/framework where nobody will be able to see it
I dunno all the details, nor have I looked into the game files myself, but that youtuber must have extracted at least some of those credits from somewhere (apart from songs or tracks that were just recognised by someone, of course).
Actually, pipes and so on might have logos printed, embossed etc on them ā no-one would bother removing them.
no Iām not joking, everything you put into a game/audio file costs space/memory, something that contributes to the download size of the game and the machine can only hold a limited amount of, I didnāt say it was a lot of memory (and processing to probably if you need to process the metadata), but adding something that takes up space and doesnāt do anything is a bad engineering practice, when I said text data type, I was talking about something thatās more than likely a string which would hold text for something like a credits page where the composer would be credited there (and people could actually see it), chances are that YouTuber just looked up somewhere else who composed the music and put it in the description of the video, those embossed things that youāre thinking about are probably the model number/dimensions of the pipe which are needed for actual construction/engineering purposes, even if there was something like a logo included on there chances are itās for the constructors to know what brand of pipe theyāre using/buying, not credits for users/owners of the building
No offence, but that was the funny part in this case.
Again, you just make assumptions. As far as I understand (could be wrong, of course), some of the names and authors of HS-exclusive tracks have been figured out via game files.
thereās nothing really funny about it since itās true and something you should understand if you want to get into game development/programming, I donāt see whatās really so funny about that, Iām not making an assumption, Iām telling you what I think is the most logical/likely explanation for how he got the name based upon the information presented (deduction), which is that he would just google the name which takes a few seconds and is far easier than extracting it from an audio file, if I were assuming it I would say this is definitely the case instead of āchances areā, my āassumptionsā/deductions only assume as much as yours for thinking that he got the name from the audio files, even though thereās nothing shown to indicate that and simply googling the composer name would be far simpler to do
