One of the things that I felt could really boost immersion is better sound effects (and not just better, but more, including ambient sounds)

For example, if I have a ship/aircraft/sub/missile/torpedo selected, it should have some slight ambient noise associated with it, that plays for as long as I have it selected - (most other naval games do this, fleet command, sub command, dangerous waters, cold waters, etc).

A sound should pop when a decoy in fired, or when other events pop.

Any notes on the sound design in CMO? I know this has been brought up many times, but nothing was ever really improved.

With Tacview support, the addition of traditional game sound design would really tie everything together.

Thanks!

Not a bad idea for a game. But CMANO currently has the option of being played as either a game or with the appearance of a simulation - it certainly has the realism built in.
If you're conducting the battle sitting in CIC or in a command centre ashore you won't hear much - if anything at all.
So for CMO, perhaps the sounds could be available as an option for the player(s) to choose how they want to use the sim, along with NTDS-type icons or unit silhouettes to represent the units

I guess I can only speak for myself, but I play CMANO because it's a game, and I would suspect that's the case for the majority of players, given how much popularity putting it on steam brought. A little more effort put into the "game" part of CMO would go a very long way in boosting it's popularity, as well as it's enjoyment.

Maybe putting new sound effects up on the Steam Workshop could be a possibility?

There are more and better sound effects.

Good to know, Dimitris, thanks!

Excellent, sounds are important for the immersion effect of every game.

Saw Kushan's stream, the sound effects got a HUGE overhaul! Hooyah!
