x TheGreatOne Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Sure. I guess. I'm not trying to be a dick, but there really isn't a point to this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Domes Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 It would always happen to me while playing Guitar Hero. I would be going for the note streak achievements and hear the little *bloop*. Only to find out it was just a friend logging on and that I missed a note when I looked at it.

jackanape Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 The only time that noise is annoying is when people log on and off LIVE a lot in a short space of time. Stay on - or don't, just stop bloody well annoying me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zdarko43 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 lol it throws me off and excites me unnecessarily sometimes. haha i look for Achievement Unlocked, when instead XXX Send you blah or is online. I thought about disabling all of those notifications except achievements but then if someone wanted to play they wouldnt ever get to me unless i start checking every minute or so which then would also be annoying.

SkillfulMmd Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 whats worse is when you push the guide button when sum one logs on that makes me angry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xGodDogx Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 HaHa i find this pretty funny when this happens to me. I work on for hours trying to get one achievement and then here the nose to see someone log in and the few minutes later you get that noise again and its someone else loggin in.

Ryot Control Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I have to admit that when someone on my friends list is getting updates... I notice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henchmanc Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Yeah, it bugs me alot, especially with the logging on and off people, there seem to be alot of those. You should be able to customize your sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirksta Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Lol, I remember when I was an achievement whore, and it used to make me jump when someone signed in cos I thought it was an unlock. Not really fussed though, but it would be sick to have a custom noise like some sick solo for unlocks and a drum roll when someone onlines.

Kwyjibo3637 Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 i think of it as more of an overall notification sound associated with the happiness bubble that pops up. I think I would stop looking if I knew they had different sounds.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evarist0 X Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 The other day something funny happened to me. I was trying to get one of the weapon achievements for Mass Effect. Ok, so I was killing geth and I hear the noise so I was like really happy xD but it was just a friend =( after that, like a minute later I hear the noise again and I thought that this time it was the achievement but it was another friend loging on. After that I got pissed off and I just kept playing and I heard the sound again but this time I thought it was a friend so didn't pay attention to it. But since I saw that is was quite a large name for a friend I decided to check xD and it was the achievement xD it's not a really funny story i know...

Skillet Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Meh. MS said "Hey, we need a notification sound." and they got the little "blooip!". I guess they didn't think there really needed to be a different sound for each notification and I doubt they're going to change that any time soon.

Bullet2theface Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I remember I was going for the 100 games won in GoW, I was so frustrated because it was taking me a long time to get it and one day I finished a game and I hear a *Bloop* sound,so I start jumping around yelling FINALLY!!!!! Only to realize my friend logged in. Yes I removed him after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay on - or don't, just stop bloody well annoying me. Agreed. A bunch of ppl on my friends list log on/off off/on and so forth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only to realize my friend logged in. Yes I removed him after that. LOL Sometimes when a friend is playing guitar hero (or any other game) online and i know he's going for some achievements I just keep on sending messages so he gets pissed and logs out of xbox live. The sound annoys me when i'm playing an online race game or Guitar Hero so i lose my concentration and fu©k up my flawless run. It's time for an update that allows custom sounds, the victory fanfare of Final Fantasy would fit with getting an achievement.

DFILL450 Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I have the same problem. I remember i just finished a match in def jam, and was expecting a really hard achievement, and a friend signed on. I ended up getting nothing and i was really pissed off lol. They should have like master chiefs voice say "achievement unlocked" lol. Or have like that guy that does the movies say it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altimus Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Kind of. But it especially does when I'm getting a difficult achievement and I hear that noise only to realize someone logged online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bajan Elite Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 yes it does bug me but only when trying to get an ach i've been trying to get for the longest like get one million in hexic every time someone signed on i think i got but no. @ the guy who was the first to reply, if this thread is pointless you shouldn't waste your time posting.

Skillet Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Well, I had my first moment of hatred the other day. I was trying to get an achievement in Boom Boom Rocket, mid-game, a buddy signed on and it distracted me enough that I looked and it threw my hits off. I had to restart. Oh well, it wasn't that bad.

synister EFFECT Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It does get annoying like when youre playing games that take complete concentration to get the achievements and you think you got it but insted someone on your friends list is logging on. Otherwise it doesnt really matter to me. Overall, though, it would be nice to have a different ding for each thing. Besides, its not like it would be that hard for microsoft to do.

Thats a bloody good idea and cant believe i didnt think of it, you should be able to recrd your own achievement unlocked sound, i would have Achievement Mother Fucker. In mr T vioce. Excellent idea i hope they do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaDog Deluxe Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It can actually be kind of funny. I was watching The Matrix, and right when Neo threw up, someone signed on, so it seemed like I got an achievement for his upchucking. It made me laugh.
