is apocrypha supposed to have deadlands music?

    The new music box has a Deadland's sound, not an Apocrypha's one. It is in the crown store right now, and it has a typical Apocrypha appearance, but the sound (not a music, but a sound) is typical of a demonic environment like the Deadlands.
    In my humble opinion...

    it has a deadlands sound because it's the deadlands soundtrack lol. it's a bug

    The bug fix doesn't appear to have been included in today's patch.

    Apocrypha looks so amazing but the current deadlands music that plays within it is a real let down and just waters down the new zone experience. It just feels like the deadlands again. Please fix this.

    The patch was oddly empty given the relatively large number of bugs out there. I know that most of them won't get fixed, but it would be nice to get at least some of them fixed right away before they lose interest and move onto other things.

    Hmm, I was hoping for a fix. Doesn't feel right to do any questing in the zone with the wrong music.

    Not just the music... did they steal the footsteps in water sounds from Clockwork City, or is that unintentional, too?

    im guessing they did this because the "water" in apocrypha seems more "gloopy" than well, water lol

    its not quite as dark as the full on "oil" water in clockwork city, but i think the water sounds seemed appropriate to me
    I'm just disappointed that the "water" (or whatever it really is) doesn't damage the player like in ES 5.

    one or two WB in apocrypha have some damaging water around them, if you feel nostalgic lol

    A console player posted a video on Reddit a while ago, and in there was proper Apocrypha music.

    On PTS, Apocrypha has it's own music as well. I'd also expect it to arrive for LIVE with the Wednesday incremental patch.

    Edit: As Kevin said below, it will be at the end of July.

    Hi All, just checked in with the team. This will be fixed in the incremental after next. So not this Wednesday's incremental. Rather the incremental coming toward the end of July.

    Nice that Apocrypha will have it's own music.

    When I played through the story I just turned off the music and listened to the ambient sounds instead, which were quite good.

    The Apocrypha music reminds me of the music in Blackreach, I am glad we got the correct soundtrack.

    I DID notice the Deadlands music, I just thought they never bothered making any for Apocrypha. -_- I can't believe it hasn't been fixed yet (and, in fact, it sounds like they broke something else instead...)

    @ZOS_Kevin, is it possible that the music itself got accidentally removed from the game data with this patch? Because the main menu only plays the Chapter's Main Theme and doesn't queue the rest of the music after that.

    Hi all, after checking with the team, the fix for this issue will roll out with U39. The team wanted it to come is yesterday's incremental patch, but needed extra time. The fix in confirmed for U39.

    What does that mean? Until U39 there will be zero background music in Necrom city? It makes no fun to run through the city or the tunnels when there is nothing but silence...

    I would like to bring the thread up again: do we really have to wait another 3 weeks (until update 39) until background music is playing again in Necrom or will there be a patch?

    I can't understand why it's just ignored. It's one thing if the WRONG music (Deadlands music) is playing in Apocrypha, or if there is NO background music at all! It's no fun being in Necrom if there's no music.
    Please, do something about this and not in three weeks, but asap.
