hi guys how you all doing.
just wanted to talk about game sounds, what sounds you like and what sounds you don't like.

So, sounds in a fps game are a very important part of gameplay for feeling immersed, when you shoot a gun it should sound like it means business. when a grenade explodes it should sound like a explosion. basicly everything needs to sound like your on a battlefield, you need to hear people shooting in the distance explosions in the distance. i hate bringing up battlefield but just listen look how much detail they go into with just sound in there game as they know how important it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRZZ0OC2PcQ

so i would like to see what sounds you guys like / dont like, ideas and improvenets to this.

My likes

*Dropships, i like this sound, it's uniqe and i can identify what it is purely from the sound, the sound works for a dropship sound to me.

*inertial dampner, i like this too as it gives a believable sound, i like the sound when you hit the ground.

* smg it sounds like a smg.

My dislikes

*grenade explosions, sounds weak , is there any echo from the explosion , i cant remember

*current ar, sounds a little dull and weak to me, needs to sound a little more violent as the chip chip noise doesnt really make me feel like wow im shooting a bad ass plasma rifle.

* battlefield just feels way to quiet needs more sound, need to hear explosions in the distance wich sound muffled and different from an explosion up close , if they add jungle maps, weird animal life , more sounds for immersion the better.

would really like to hear feedback from you guys please likes/ dislikes ..ideas and improvements. thanks for your time

I guess this will all be coming when polishing the game, but it doesn't hurt to just whip out some ideas right now...

for explosion improvents , if an explosion goes off near you and you dont die a ringing sound and all sound very muffled for a few seconds might help.

The swarm launcher missile hits are sooooo weak it sounds like a 3 year old slapping a piece of tin foil. Oh and after the initial launch sound the missiles are silent....

I honestly think this game sounds pretty damn good. I have tritton ax pro's and don't remember hearing a game sound so good in a long time. Maybe playing things like MW3 before playing dust has made it sound so much better lol.
EDIT: Footsteps I don't really remember noticing except when I just heard my own when running around in spawn. If I get chance to play it again I will test it out properly.
