Gun Sound issues

Are they fixing the gun sound issues?

Seems to me but everybody has silencers on most weapons. Sometimes you can't hear people shooting at you, you find out after your dead.

Re: Gun Sound issues

Could be a problem with your sound card. I can hear the guns just fine, assuming they aren't shooting at me from 150m away. :p

Happens to me, too.
Where a gun is not fireing and you can hear it fire. Bug sence 1.30 came out.
EA not fixing it in 1.4

That particualr bug is slightly annoying. Like when i'm trying to sneak up on a command post, and suddenly i hear automatic weapon fire, and I'm trying to figure out where it's coming from, then I see my teammate behind me :|: it's just kind of annoying when there's a false alarm and you've just wasted time trying to figure out where nonexistant weapons fire is coming from.

Wait...which one? Do you mean the repeating weapon sound bug? That's been around since day 1 as far as I can remember (and yes, it's really annoying, especially when it's happening to you and you don't know it and you think you're being stealthy :cry: ). I thought he was talking about a bug where weapons didn't make any sounds.

Now I'm confused.

I hate that, too! I think it's one of my guys shooting at someone, so I duck and cover and I see that he is not shooting. Makes me feel like an idiot

Re: Gun Sound issues

All I ever hear are guns firing at me.

I get the feeling people don't like to see me in game. lol

Re: Gun Sound issues

Well, third player sounds use the EAX sound effect inside bf2. If you have yours turned off or on, it will effect the volume, decay, distance perception, etc.

Some cards emulate it, some have it, some dont. Try the setting in the audio field and see what happens.

Re: Gun Sound issues

Not just a gun sound, I experienced this on Karkand Earlier today, One of my teamates prone next to me, had a PKM and killed a guy on the opposing team. He ran off to cap some flag, I went the opposite diection and i still heared the PKM shots. Another time is with the medic bag sound when you are being healed. I was on the streets by myself and still heared the noise wherever i go.

That medic healing bug is damned annoying, but it's avoidable/fixable. It happens when you are using a bag to heal yourself and you grab another kit without switching off of the bag. The healing sound will continue until you find another medic kit and switch back to the bag and THEN to another weapon or defibs. Same thing happens with support and ammo bags. One of those 'leaky faucet' bugs that doesn't really annoy you at first but will grate on your nerves after a while. That, too, has been around since the demo.

Re: Gun Sound issues

That happens to me also and it's crazy annoying. It's not just the sound that bugs me, whenever i hear it it's usually very close and some guy with a PKM comes running up from behind me. I have a good speaker set-up so i know where its coming from if its behind me, that combined with me getting twitchy with the mouse button when i hear it that close, most of the time I turn around and go full-auto on the guy. Dosen't work to well while squading up in an allyway:), but they usually understand whats going on.
