I am so sick and tired of my play sessions being inundated with that horrible looping sound. Step away from a ship? Sound triggers. It contributes nothing to the game and if it's going to keep looping on our clients for no reason, just get rid of the audio file for it until it ever gets fixed... if it ever gets fixed.

I must have missed it in the 400 page manifesto that DICE released for the S3 patch notes, but I think claymores can't one hit kill infantry anymore. Since the update I've only seen upwards of 90-99 damage but no full kills.

Looking for opinions, suggestions, and critiques of this back jacket blurb, as well as the book's tagline and title. I want to also make sure that it accurately sells to a potential reader what I know the book itself is like. Unfortunately I don't have any art yet to help with that.

Some things I am looking for in particular:

• Given no other context, what genre and tone are you expecting?
• What perspective structure are you expecting? I.e. single POV or multiple?
• Is the premise as-written intriguing, or is it too wordy, vague, cluttered, etc?
• Does the blurb give enough detail about characters to hook or interest you?
• Is the title memorable or eye-catching?
• Are there any other hooks that drew your attention?
• Any general thoughts on the tagline would be appreciated as well.

^(—The first book in the Soar series—)

The GHOSTS of Galdhø

^(“Humanity has gazed long into the abyss — And we’ve learned only to exploit it.”)

^(The year is 2170 — an unprovoked orbital strike on one of Earth’s most secure naval groups threatens the delicate peace between NATO and the new continent Rangea, leaving the world scrambling for the culprit before it’s too late. The fledgling Rangean Republic answers with the HSOD: A strike force that targets the architects of violence — not soldiers, but the leaders behind them. Caster keeps the audacious team alive. Ardenne refuses to kill yet commands death like a queen. And Centura, the unstable assassin at the center of it all, is becoming harder to predict with every mission.)

^(In the aftermath of the strike, a young Soarian operative desperately tries to survive his own Commander’s personal quest for answers, while a relentless killer finally closes in on the one man he’s spent years trying to find.)

^(As power plays unfold aboard orbiting dreadnoughts, as fighter jets battle in the sky, as the shifting perspectives of a looming war clash in collapsing cities, a vast silence is already expanding beneath and before them all — one so devoid that it can only consume.)

^(—What are you, if you are only what you take?—)
