>sound effects<

[Corewin]

I really havent heard much as to what the game "sounds" like. I understand some things cannot be told about what goes on in the beta, but if anyone could clue me in on the sounds of vehicals and so on, i would really appreciate it.

[Hamma]

The sound in this game flat out owns ;)

[Marsman]

100% Agreed. This game has some of the best sound I've ever heard. From the throaty rumble of vehicle engines, to the bone chilling sounds of the wind in a winter storm - the game sounds rock!

[Tolvy]

Just listen to the war on TV. I'm sure it sounds similar to what you'll here in PS. Other than the media of course.

[Squeeky]

The sounds are AWESOME

[shiro]

MAN i wish i had the chance to hhear the sounds for my self *wink*wink* j/k lol

[Tolvy]

This is the only real topic of today so far. Amazing. Way to go Corewin!

[Trebor95]

As long as the guns don't sound like toy guns then I will be super happy :)

but sound can push a game that one step further into the realm of groundbreaking,

:tear: :tear: :tear:

Why does everything have to be so perfect? Good question Corewin, I don't believe I've seen this discussed.

[Ruthless]

well the vanu weaps look like toy guns ;)

[kid klash]

i HOPE PS doesn't osund like the war... we'd have reporters followin us when we're headin into battle....

What im wondering is, what kind of sound support will there be? Dolby 5.1?, 6.1?, 7.1? Cause I just bought a 6 channel Logitech speaker system and a 6 channel maddog sound card�..yes I know, I should of went with sound blaster, but come on! 150.00 speakers, and a 80.00 sound card bundle for 80 bucks! I couldn�t resist.

[Shryn]

It would be kinda nice if someone could post a sound byte. There's so much great media at the PSU site, maybe we could have an audio section of the media portion of the site?

Geraldo is immortal, hamma. I thought you knew that ;)

[Hamma]

As horrible as that sounds. I fear it may be true.

[BladeRunner]

Sound clip preview idea sounds cool to me... "Hear gun in action" "hear the engine"

Might be tough to accomplish though.. I guess it depends on how their files are stored on the hard drive..

We don't know yet, though from this (http://www.gamingnexus.com/Preview.asp?ID=68&page=1) preview:
"There are also at least 8 sound settings, and there may be more later. 3 EAX versions, DirectSound, and Dolby Surround are included in there among others."

...it sounds like there are alot of options. I'd guess there will be support for 7.1 and under.

[d3ath4u]

ah crap! 7.1?!? that means....ah, i'd have to buy a new sound card and more speakers...:( . Well, forget that..for a while atleast. Oh well, 5.1 beats mono.:D

[Corewin]

Thought the info is inticing.... i too would like to see a sound section added as well. But not quite a "sound section" more as an ..option.. under the pics and info of the guns and or vehicals. Just to get a feal for the game.... because I dont want to be flying on assumptions, thinking that something is going to be quiet... when in fact its so loud there would be no doubt an enemy would hear you. a few more cents...

[TheGreatCarbini]

Sound is really important hehe. Anyone play the demo for that new game Devestation? Yaaaaa...... I'll pass on picking up that one.

[JonnyK]

can you hear bullets Whizzing by your head when they do, like in MOHAA? mohaa has the best sound effects in a video game that i've ever heard, and also, does your screen like shake when a grenade blows next to you? and if it's close does your hearing go out for a little bit like in saving private ryan? Soldat is the only game i've ever played where you're hearing goes out from a grenade, soldat=good game even though it looks like arse
