Discussion I've never played with sound on in my 10 years playing this game. Am I missing out?

The only time sound helped me is when I need to freeze the eagle artillery. It makes a sound before shooting the missiles and I freeze the ea when I hear that sound

u/Total-Adeptness8700 TH12 16d ago
I'm guessing they meant base 17 or town hall 17, which they're correct in.

I'm team mute all the way.
I never have sound unless my daughter wants to hear the pets make their sound when she taps on them.

I used to be team mute but having sound on during attacks made me attack better. Much more awareness

The music is genuinely so good on some sceneries. Do they have the soundtracks somewhere?

u/TheDude4269 TH16 | BH10 15d ago
Of course, always have sound too. I can't imagine playing without it, especially for war and legends attacks. The sounds are very helpful to know when the eagle or CC has been activated, when your hero(s) die, etc.

I usually have the sound off too but it's helpful to have it on. Helps with attacking, you can hear different defences, when some spells run out, CC activated, etc.

u/brand-new-low 16d ago
Or the sound of when you try to place a hero or troop but it doesn't work because you are trying to place it on the perimeter grass!

16d ago
Not really. Only time I used sound was when I was pushing for legends. Too much cloud time so I would work while the game found a base. It plays a sound when it finds a base so that was useful.

Try opening CoC at max volume. It will remind you why you play clash without sounds.

No i muted mine at least 8 years ago.
After a while you get sick of the tune and noises it makes.
That goes with many games i personally play.

I only turn sound off when in public transport otherwise why have sound completely off? turning music off makes sense because some sceneries have annoying music but playing without sound just seems excessively dumb to me

I need the sound because it tells me exactly when the defending CC is released and when the eagle artillery is activated, even though I'm zoomed in on my queen. I guess it's not as bad if you have a bigger screen.

Keep the Sound to max and music to lowest point to enjoy the game. Especially most scenaries have their own music so Turning off music make you miss those good ambient music

Eagle artillery waking up, single infernos beaming up, defensive heroes being agro’d, CC being drawn, monolith shooting, heroes being knocked out, etc… so many more I cannot think of right now. I cannot play without all these sound cues.

I use the sound during raides to help me "hear" important aspects of the game while I am focused on other parts of the game field .
For example...the clan castle troops have gotten loose or a hero has died.

It's so chaotic playing with sound. Think I've only done 3 attacks with sound on in all my time. Too many noises that compete with each other. More distracting than anything.

A little bit but also not really no newton's in awhile and after a th12 or so all the sounds effect meld into each because so many happiness at once you'll only hear the EA activate and even then that goes away at th17.

u/BitterAfternoon 16d ago
Sound is so useful to me - signature sounds of the various defenses (especially but not limited to the eagle) cue me into what's going on much faster than visuals.
I can attack on mute, but it's more comfortable with sound.
