Well, so much for the System Shock forum.

So I've looked at the trailers and a gameplay video of the demo..
The one way they could absolutely screw this thing up in the most heinous but predictable way possible is by keeping with the orchestral score idea. DON'T DO IT. System Shock, and especially SS2, was about that cyberpunk industrial drum-n-bass. One of the best things about System Shock 2 was the soundtrack. I'm trying to give this project a fair chance, but if they go the same damn route as every other modern spacey FPS and opt for an orchestral soundtrack ~ the HORROR ~ the HOLLYWOOD SUSPENSE!! ~ they have officially tainted the name of System Shock unforgiveably. PLEEASE, developers! Find someone to make dark, heavy DnB for the game. Might I suggest one of the artists at (
http://www.ohmresistance.com/) <|||> ohmresistance, maybe the founder, Submerged. I think that would add a TON to the project. If one of them signed on, you'd have my enthusiasm for this remake.
Does anyone have any contacts with the developers? I might try shooting this advice to them. I don't mean to be self-righteous, but if these folks really feel as passionate as they do about the series, and really do want to do it justice with the <i>reboot</i>, they can't set the game to an orchestral score. It would ruin it completely. Orchestrated music IS NOT SCARY.
I'd share their e-mail contact (if I had it) with you if it meant all your whiny cringe-inducing tirades went direct to the devs and saved us from reading them, but as it stands, you'd probably soapbox both the devs
and us to death instead of sequestering it to one place.
No. Less entropy this way.

Why not just send them a comment on their KS page?

True.

pretty sure they have been notified of the unfitting music on several occasions, both on ks and systemshock.org.

Wonderful!

Thanks for letting me know about systemshock.org, voodoo. I had no idea a mod community existed. I might try to make one of my own at some point.

Yeah compared to how the mod side of things for SS2 is shown here compared to on systemshock.org. No comparison.
HUGE difference.
Quite a good libray for all of the FMs and demo maps released for the game + mods etc.
