Sound Bug - Darkmoon Dirigible

Mount is silent when flying and moving forward. Forward movement while on ground, idle and turning sounds seem fine.

I have also noted that the Grinning Reaver has broken footsteps sounds since 10.1.5

Darkmoon Dirigible is still silent while flying forward.

I had originally chalked this up to being an intentional change due to people complaining about how noisy it was. Mim’s Head and Mecha-Mogul both had their in-flight sounds’ volume nerfed considerably due to similar complaints (and Mecha-Mogul’s change was unfortunately haphazardly applied to all of its sounds, so it’s way too quiet now including while idling as well as the initial mount-up sound).

However, I agree that Dirigible’s in-flight sound is entirely muted and probably a bug since it still plays at full volume while you are on the ground. They really need to pick a standard approach for this type of thing if they’re going to make changes based on “noisy” complaints, as these 3 mounts currently all have separate implementations of a “fix” for noise.

Can Blizz fix anything they break? Praying to Metzen

I guess it needs the sound from a car exhaust with a balloon at the end of the tailpipe going sputter, sputter, sputter…

It doesn’t have to be loud or obnoxious but it should not be muting all its sound the moment we start flying on it
