    Yeah!!! My ranged weapons have never sounded better. The throwing axes are the most improved. The new sound is like a throwing axe whereas before it was an annoying high pitched sound.

    I always wondered if I hated that pre-u7 arrow sound because it was annoying or if it was because I was shell shocked from all those dang skeleton archers. Turns out, it was because the annoying sound was annoying.

    U7 bows sound great. I also heard someone ratcheting away with what sounded like a repeater crossbow in VoD. Very good sound improvements!

    That said, I do miss the old Dwarf sound effects. Before when I took a critical my dwarves shouted "GAaaah!" Now Dwarves shout "Oh shi-!" Too juvenile IMHO.

    I really hope the new sound effect doesn't reduce ranged attack speed, only 16 more levels to go until I can do a full check.

    However that being said they do sound okay, but I at my current level it sounds more like a game of kerplunk PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK.. as before it was like WHOOSH ARROW OF DOOM! I wonder what it sounds like with max BAB and all enhancements.

    I am guessing a lv20 AA with all speed buffs and items will sounds like a thousand marbles hitting a large plastic floor over and over.
