VS Weapon Audio Concept Feedback

[Hamma]

[Rasui]

The biggest issue with Vanu weapons is they don't have enough BOOM! I know they're energy weapons, but we as modern day humans enjoy our weapons with more bass.

Assault Rifle #2

Neither Carbine

LMG #3 for sure, though I heard the Ursa after GU08 on live before it was patched back and it sounded AMAZING. Like a bass/dubstep cannon.

Pistol #3

Nice heavy pistol at the end

Edit:

Too mechanical all around. The humming aftertones on some of them are great, but the dominant sound on all of them is a metallic clack that's too similar to every generic firearm ever.

Saw this in the youtube comments and couldn't agree more. I like all of the sounds and think they're an improvement over current, but I find after repeated watches it's the aftertones that I'm enjoying most.

Assualt Rifle #2, I didn't care for the new Carbine sounds, LMG #3-5, Pistol #3.

All these #s sound really deep and badass. Those guns sound like I'm shooting freight trains at the enemy.

Also nice tease there Higby of the VS heavy pistol. It looks like it will be a Lasher pistol.

AR: 3
Carbine: 2 (if I had to choose, otherwise neither)
LMG: 3
Pistol: 3

Was that the new VS pistol at the end??? O

[Frozenland]

I like the audio tracks with more echo, and less metalic, because, they are energy weapons they should not have those metalic sound.

[Bucketnate]

AR:#3
LMG: #2
Pistol: #3!!!!

[moosepoop]

they sound ............AWESOME! with weight behidn the bullets.

now do the same for TR pls devs

they should implement all these sounds for different guns. the more silent sounds can be users for suppressor.

[SturmovikDrakon]

I like them all

put them all in

(now make TR carbines sound less wimpy)

[WSNeo]

Assault Rifle 4
Carbines 1 and 2 sound identical to me
I REALLY don't like LMG 1 and 2 they make the guns sound weak. I love LMG 3 though.
Pistol 2 suits the Beamer all too well.

Why not include all sounds for each type of Carbine/Assault Rifle/LMG/Pistol.
This would please everyone, and give the game that "combined arms" feel on an infantry scale.

[Rbstr]

AR #2
Also LMG #2 - it's pretty unique

I don't get why the Carbine/LMG would sound totally different than the AR.

[Sleepy]

Pistol Concept #3 is great, and should serve as a template for all of the candidate sounds.

The remainder do not sound Sci-Fi/Laser-y enough; yes, sadly the VS use projectiles, but they sound far too physical regardless in these sound clips. Sizzles, 'zzzzzz's' and such, or as what Higby first alluded to (IIRC) with these changes, something distinctly more Alien. None fulfill that role save Pistol 3 (and kudos to the plasma ball rather than bullet - is that a new effect?)

The vast majority of candidates sound like real rifles (more or less) with a minor sound effect trailing after the shots. Please don't mimic the TR and NC more than has already been done.

Assault Rifle #2 (ANY ONE BUT THE CURRENT)
The carbines sounded the same (but are not good enough I'd say)
LMG: 3
Pistol: 1

Preferably you'd go back and make them sound more energy-based with less of those sissy puff sounds and more of those sassy zZap sounds like the old Pulsar.

and for the love of vanu
re-do the Lancer's fire sound. it sounds too puffy, not enough zZap.

[Zulthus]

The only one I honestly like is the third pistol concept. The rest just sound like regular weapons for the most part... I wouldn't think "That must be an energy weapon" if I heard it.

Take a note from the PS1 Pulsar, that was a very distinct and good energy sound. Even the Lasher and Beamer were easily recognizable.

You can find the vanu weapon sounds on the list here http://www.soundboard.com/sb/Planetside1Sounds

Goes in order: 1, 2, 3, 3

Now can we get this for all factions?
