Do you think that thunder should be removed?

I find that the sound of the thunder, that goes off when someone dies, is extremely loud in comparison to all other minecraft sounds and when I'm playing with my sound on 100% to prevent anyone sneaking up on me, I find that the thunder is way too loud. This is also the case when I watch mcsg youtube video, the recorder has to turn down their sound otherwise the thunder is annoying and louder than the commentary.

The lightening that comes with the thunder is of coarse no problem and helpful for finding the remaining players but what does everyone you think about removing the thunder?

Vote on the poll and tell me your thoughts! If you don't agree tell me why. ;D

The thunder is quite helpful in my opinion. I usually have my sound on at around 20% and I can still catch people sneaking up on me. But thats just me. If I am correct, the lightning is only visible when you are close to the person who just died while thunder can be heard and you can go in the direction or away from it if you please.

It depends on the render you play on, I tend to be able to use the lightening, good point though :3

I think they should make it so you can still here the thunder, yet it isn't as loud, so it's easier on the ears, and on keeping track on the amount of dead tributes

The actual hunger games had a cannon go off for each tribute. The thunder acts as the cannon. Removing that would end up making the servers less realistic. So I would have to go with no on this one for me. I do agree that thunder is way too loud though. I believe with the new resource packs for 1.6, you might be able to change how loud it is. If that is the case, then that seems like a great fix. :)

tbh mcsg isn't that related to the real hunger games, if it was hiding in a tree the whole game would guarantee your survival :p
