Title: How to immerse yourself with music in HL2RP
Post by: Statua on July 27, 2011, 02:04:02 PM

Listen to immediate music. Its epic and really gets you into the moment. You can find slow music for sad times, calm music for, well calm times. Or fast, aggressive music for running or fighting.

I often listen to this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blCBoXKCGl0&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blCBoXKCGl0&feature=related) when doing a sweep or during a firefight. Epic music is epic.

Yank please clean up those links with spoilers. It's flooding my thread. -done

The dramatic music playlist is nice when you achieve something or something good is happening. I made quicklinks on my taskbar for any moment required. Makes rp that much more interesting.

I just listen to hardcore or dubstep or the radio, don't care about sad moments.
But it will really get you deeper in the game yes. Try uhhhm, blue shift by lemaitre when you're in some passiverp.

Inception and Top Gear songs/soundtracks. Oh god it's so fun to work in the Grid center playing "Fly in to the danger zone". Good memories.

God, I hate Black Ops music. You just can't beat the cinematic-ness of Hans Zimmer's music. When I played Modern Warfare 2, I felt like I was playing through a movie. Zimmer's sweeping instrumental soundtrack certainly contributed to that sense of "epic-ness." I suppose Black Ops music fits the type of game that Black Ops was designed to be, but it doesn't seem to stand out or excel in any way.

I do agree, Hans Zimmer's music was AWESOME! Yeah thats like the one of the only good songs from the BO campain. The other being the one in the Vokuta mission where you push those carts.

Yeah, I liked the Vorkuta level, it was sick.

My favourite music to play in the background has to be the stuff from the Metro 2033 OST. Mainly because some of it is fast-paced; for those fast-paced moments in HL2RP and some is slow and peaceful/sad, for when you're having some passive. Anyways, here's my list of music.
Disclaimer - I don't take any responsibility if you ruin your RP by jumping to the music.
