Bring back Jeff van Dyck (old TW music composer)

[Wolfshead]

My apologies, I accidently posted the same poll twice in different subforums. Please remove this one (if possible).

[John F. Kennedy]

Van Dyck should have NEVER been let go, or left depending on the circumstances. His music for Rome and Medieval II were simply EPIC!

[Bella]

Van Dyck's as good as it gets in PC gaming soundtracks, as far as I'm concerned. Though Freelancer had some pretty slick tracks in the bars and parts shops.

The music for Empire and Napoleon sucks majorly hairy sweaty ball sacks. Van Dyck is the bomb. There's no one like him. He's like heavy classical on a synthesizer. Can't get enough of those insane drums of all shapes and sizes. He has a gift for setting mood, and for interpreting ancient music in a modern light. And his wife Angela has the voice of an angel. I want to shAG HER!

[Riik]

If I'm reading these dates right and it's not a glitch... may 26 2010 >>> may 29 2010 > June 09 2011

Unless there's something wrong with my computer, that was a mega necropost there Slarty (Not meaning to be offending about it in any way).

[SlartyBartfast]

No offence taken. van Dyck was brought back for Shogun2 wasn't he? If that's the case, it must have an awesome soundtrack. Could you update me on this perchance?

[Riik]

well S2 music mp3 files are tagged as their artist being Jeff van Dyck, so I suppose he's back.

[SlartyBartfast]

Then the soundtrack must be sublime. I suppose I'd better start saving for STW2!

I don't think engaging in sexual intercourse with his wife will help the situation.

notice the date of the threads posting. then notice the date of S2's release.

Sure it would. Can you imagine how angry Jeff would be if he found me in bed with his wife? It'd magnify the intensity of his Total War music tenfold. His battle tunes, for example, would be his artistic interpretation of ripping my spine out with his bare hands. I'd love to hear it!

Had you ever think of the opposite?
He go into a sad despair of betrayed and madness. He will quit his job due to said reason. Next thing you know, he having various drunk bar fights with random teenager.

But then, after years of drinking in the wilderness, he realises that he is wasting his life and returns to the fray for Star Wars: Total War and creates the most incredible soundtrack ever.

Or he can not do that boring crap and be BATMAN, since he should have good fight skill live in a cave(Dumpster).

Maybe I shouldn't shag his wife then. It all depends on whether she's good-looking or not, I suppose. Ah, what the hell -- beggars can't be choosers. Any port in a storm, right?

Indeed.

[SlartyBartfast]

How about you, EvilNelson666? Do you need some anger in your life? I could shag your wife if you'd like, if you think that might inspire you to greater things. I don't mind if she's not very attractive; I'm not so fussy these days.

Ahh, yes the mind of a horny teenager....Also, I don't think you having an "accident" after said unsuccessfully trying to "shag" my hag of a "wife"-Since my imaginary wife would be most
unpleased about you trying to get her pant, since she can be cruel at time- would be an "inspire to do greater thing."

[SlartyBartfast]

EvilNelson666: If your wife is such a hag, surely you wouldn't mind if I "borrowed" her for a minute or so? There's no need for any "accidents" -- unless of course it's one of these:

Would you like Jeff van Dyck (known for his RTW and M2TW music) to compose the music for the Total War games again?

He is known for the BAFTA he received for his work on Shogun TW. I haven't payed much attention to Shogun2 lately due to unfortunate circumstances, but my ears tell me much of what you are listening to in game is either the same music or an updated version. So he's definitely back if not in full.
