We gotta talk about that sound when you get your daily log in reward.

It's awful. It's unnecessary and it makes me want to throw something at my tv and cut off my ears.

    I will never understand peoples distinct aversion to what is by all accounts simply an odd sound that occurs once a day.

    I mean at most its a strange sound to use at all.

    I will admit though, they could at least give people the option to turn it off if they were so bothered by it.
    Ah, e-communities - the "pinnacle" of the internet............yeah, right.

    Noticed I randomly started getting a "group invite" sound when I take the login reward item, a bit bizarre.

    Cutting your ears off might be a bit extreme, though.

    It’s the “mail received” sound and it makes me want to check my mail every single time.

    I’m guessing players weren’t noticing that they got rewards or something? I’ll just have to imagine the Zelda chest opening sound in its place.

    That's a really neat idea. Can addons override sound effects? I really hope so.

    I never noticed it until I turned my sound up a little, but it is an unpleasant clunking sound. What I'd like to understand is why after all these years they decided that it was a priority to create a sound for the daily reward.

    When we get the pet bantam guar, would the poor creature also get that clunky bottle sound?

    Ok some of us may be hearing different sounds. What I hear when I get my daily log in, and this just started with the PS4 patch last Tuesday, is this awful metallic springy bounce sound. It sounds nothing like when you get mail.

    If you are pc you can probably turn it down. There's a lot of sound customization in sound menu

    If we are all hearing something different... could it be possible that they didn't add a new sound, and something is just broken?

    I think I need to stop visiting the forums. The complaints one reads here are out of this world. I come here to read news about the game or read serious reviews and feedback, not read troll/bait threads.

    This isn't a troll/bait thread. The new sound is really annoying, and it seems we aren't all hearing the same thing, so something could be broken.

    I like the new sound. It make me feel rewarded for some reason lol

    I can live without it tho. Also they can change it to gold sound if some chill people try to burn down ZoS's HQ

    I never really noticed. Couldn't even say what it sounds like right now.

    Usually I am a bit annoyed that most audio feedback is so damn unobtrusive. Whispers are way too easy to miss and I did miss quite a few dungeon finder checks.

    Hey all, just confirming the new sound is not actually intended and will be fixed in a future patch :D

    I never turn on any sound, as most of it is awful. That drum roll when I kill something is terrible.

    FANTASTIC! Thank you.

    Could you please also get rid of the ‘Detected’ sound when standing up from a crouch? It’s unnecessary, I already know I’m standing up and therefore detected, and there’s no accompanying ‘Detected’ notification on screen.

    Can we have a comedy spring noise? Or a cheer sound?
    So they raised the floor and lowered the ceiling. Except the ceiling has spikes in it now and the floor is also lava.

    PS4 here and I hear two distinct sounds, which started with the update: a metallic spring "byo-yoing-CLONK" clonking sort of sound that ends with the ding sound of receiving a group invite.
