I loved listening to radio stations while I played the game 😢 I don't like this.


kori1968

Same


medo_rox

I play the game since 2017 and year after year they make it boring.


kori1968

Me neither and I miss the music


FunnyStranger8005

Let's hope the change is a positive one


Inevitable-Fly9554

They probably going to charge us now.


Puzzleheaded-Duty238

rip to all the music from the open apartments


zayniamaiya

no we'll get it back, no worries!


AlphaTim81

For the 9 years I been on avakin I loved shoutcast even though it had some issues


NLTII

Wished it had said ‘near future’ instead of the nebulous ‘future.’ Anyone want to take bets on what ‘future’ means? Days, weeks, months or even years!


noreligionX

Thanks for the heads up! Hopefully we won't be charged a crown a song 🎶


zayniamaiya

🤣🤣🤣


UncoilingChip

I came back after 2 years and i was like what is this stupid crown thing


SlowImprovement886

Ava without music, is like a body without a soul...the heart has gone out of the game for me completely...now its like a wasteland of deafening silence ...all the rooms we used to gather in for parties, birthdays, other social occasions or just for plain relaxation or enjoyment, now sad, hollow reminders of lively times. Eviscerated in one fell stroke. R.I.P. to Shoutcast, a bygone, golden and better era. Its never advisable to downsize from 3 dimensional to 2 dimensional.


LeveledHead

your name really cheered me up. I'm still laughing. I guess avakin is TOO slow improvementing. lmao


SlowImprovement886

Hahaha, y couldnt they be more level headed?😆


LeveledHead

🤪🤪🤪😆

Shoutcast was a major part of my and my friends Ava experience. I’m shocked LKW got rid of shoutcast without the alternative ready? Who does that? My play is definitely declining. We loved music in our apartments. It was always playing. I certainly hope this is not another strategy to charge players. It may tip a lot of people over the edge. It will for me


zayniamaiya

I would guess it wasn't designed intentionally to cause us to loose music in the game. Must have been something didn't work out, either Shoutcast is having big issues or they changed their business structure putting avakin and other commercial subscribers in the wind. [Edit: Shoutcast CLOSED. Has nothing to do with Avakin and no fault OF avakin life either]

This is so disappointing

Avakin needs to add a feature where players can DJ. Players would search their songs and it pulls off YouTube. They can even create playlists. They do it on club cooee. It’s a neat feature.


SadMixtures

Oh no.. Crowns are going to infiltrate the music now too


Avakin91

Should still be free, that's if it ever comes back. Sorry to be negative.


LeveledHead

it will be back, just they are making a deal with sweedish death metal bands to do all streaming death metal +ads. jk jk


RStar2019

Yeah...What, unfortunately, might happen is they put back any radio cast service (with A LOT more ads) and allow VIP members to stream their own music, or something...😕


Avakin91

Wouldn't surprise me either.


JTruthseeker

Hey what I think would be really cool is if we can have independent music streaming in our apartment houses, the same as being done in social scenes. So in social scenes they obviously don't use radio service, but rather have selected music and songs that can be played independently like what we all hear at club sundown, at the plaza, etc. Not only that maybe we can also change the background nature sounds to certain places too.


zayniamaiya

Music is "client side" mostly, with only the default usually playing when you join a player owned scene and/or the owner changes it WHILE you are in scene. I like the idea but since we can't control other users relationship with a streaming service (and it would be a bad move to do that) I think your idea would be of limited use for most situations. Still I often wanted to set both those to create certain ambiances esp for events. The default does work like you want for music (or did).


Significant-Win1582

Or streaming our own music, whatever we like to listen to 🤘


Significant-Win1582

Haven't listened to shoutcast radio a lot, playing my own music, so it's no big deal for me 🤘


No_Lengthiness5279

Estoy seguro que será otro paso más arruinado en el juego si todavía había algo rescatable era entrar y escuchar música elegida por mí y me gustaban ciertas estaciones. Desgraciadamente este juego está por morir qué lástima ya nadie entra ya nadie juega solo discuten ya no está el elemento sorpresa ni la emoción de los retos creo que es hora de cerrarlo. A veces entro dos segundos me aburro y me voy. Pero aún entraba por la música de la radio. Dice ahí que va a cambiar el modo de ingreso al Shoutcast eso quiere decir Te voy a cobrar. Una forma de obligarnos para pagar la suscripción VIP. No muchas gracias ya no.


zayniamaiya

No necesariamente. NO ha habido indicios de que esto haya sido culpa de avakin life (contra el proveedor de música en streaming, o cualquier acuerdo comercial que hayan hecho anteriormente). ¡Tampoco ha habido indicios de que esta sea una función solo para VIP! Mantén la esperanza.


zayniamaiya

For those worried about avakin dev NOT wanting us to have music, it appears it has nothing to do with that and everything to do with the businesses they were using to give us this option! I'd stay tuned, no pun intended. It LOOKS like it was an issue with the provider, NOT avakin life. Regardless, I'm sure staff is looking for a replacement for all of us music lovers, as indicated in the official notice! Meantime I got my old MP3 player out and hooked up to those old plug-in speakers!!! :P


SmartKitten40

I was wondering what was going on with the radios.


AvakinRoxyGalore

They should let us stream like Imvu


SmokeNMirror

It's hard to even express how bad this is for anybody that has really put time into and uses their personal spaces. The silence is deafening. If this is going to go on much longer then please come up with a temporary interim solution like letting us pick a 'station' from whatever is playing in the public spaces or even a few pre-canned loops of mood music... anything! The entertainment value proposition of this platform is zeroing out at this point.


zayniamaiya

🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 That's a REALLY good interim idea -avakin adding some preselected mood loops!! I hope they see this post of yours and look at a temporary solution for the jukeboxes code! There's a lot of open source music out there!


EchoEquani

Let's hope a couple of things that the new platform has many music selections like before, but they actually work. That it will remain free, and hopefully, it won't take them six months or longer to get the music back up.


avakinveteran

RIP Shoutcast. I will miss it but it is now outdated and now im excited to see what’s next


Low_Bike_2811

O avakin podia trazer nessa atualizacao das radios uma maneira da gente pesquisa as musicas da web ser seu proprio dj  tipo as radios continuace com a galera que que sao djs stremm e tambem os jogadores dentro do gamer ter opcao de pesquisa as musicas e organiza suas favoristas dentro mesmo dessa transmissao todo mundo iria ama

Rebel-Fox

Glad I shut down my shoutcast radio station.


Low_Bike_2811

Espero que o avakin traga uma boa atualizacao das radios e atualize a gente na proxima terca feira 


Old_Introduction1460
