Hello everyone! Sancho here!

I wanted to give you all a much needed preview of things to come for Sins of the Prophets Sound! As the programming team is busy reconstructing the game to purge bugs, we've been working hard on a sound update that will rock your socks off!

First off, The Covenant User Interface is getting a much needed face-lift and the old placeholder is out! (Sancho is not the best Elite admittedly) I'm pleased to announce the addition of I'mNotJamesEarlJones to the Sotp Vocal Talent! He will be playing an Elite Arbiter tasked with updating the fleet-master of vital naval information. Enjoy!

We are also happy to introduce our newest staff member: MattP. MattP is a SFX artist that has been assisting replacement efforts of all of the Vanilla SOASE SFX with our own, to truly make this a total conversion Mod. Here are a few things he's been cooking up for you to devour with your eardrums. (super stoked for the plasma boiling metal sound)

Lastly, Waseem Faraz Butt has remastered several prominent tracks from the Sins of the Prophets score, and has made them available for you to download! Now you can enjoy the score of SotP to your hearts content! (#TotallyHaveItOnRepeatRightNow)

Download the tracks here: Soundcloud.com

...blip... Thanks from the Sound Team for voting for Mod of the Year! BTW If we get enough votes, We may have a kick ass present for you on the 25th. ...blip...

I absolutely love the Sangheili Here track, however, I feel as if the mod needs something a bit more UNSC-themed, something filled with testosterone when playing as Humanity... you know, like if SGTMAJ A. J. Johnson was watching over them.

But then again, the current Soundtrack is quite awesome. Keep up the awesome work!

I agree. The music all sounds really amazing, but a few more tracks that have the militaristic sound of something like Brothers in Arms or Cairo Suite would really improve the ambience on the UNSC side.

Thanks for the feedback guys.
The Sangheili Here track is actually played when playing specifically as the Covenant.
As for the UNSC and more militaristic tracks, yeah sure I was looking into that myself actually! By the time we start to look at Forerunners more I should definitely have made some more worthy additions to the UNSC Score, cheers for letting me know. And I hope you enjoy what's to come... as I'm certainly not done here!

That Opening track has been one of a very meticulous hate/love affair in hermitage that has transpired... I can't really express the lengths of time and energy crafting it lol.
But I get a good kick now and then when a guy brings it up. Thanks for being that guy! You're EPIC!

p.s. about those Cove voices... ONCE WE WERE FOES... AND NOW WE ARE BROTHERS :D
