    Re: Supersonic Gunshots in Battlefield 2

    I couldn't agree more Kayback,

    having had some trigger-time both indoors and outdoors with handguns and a few full-auto's I can only say that I am grateful that sound isn't realistic in BF2 or any other game for that matter.

    There is nothing remotely "cool" about the sound of an M16 being shot in rapid-fire indoors. It's obnoxiously loud, sharp and annoying even with earmuffs. Without earmuffs...well..it wouldn't be a problem for long, because you'd be deaf.

    Fired a 9mm UZI with a long suppressor on an indoor shooting range once - still needed earmuffs for that too.

    Most players ahve never ever heard any of these weapons in BF2 fired - and wathcing it on discovery doesn't count! lol.

    No, thank gawd for Hollywood and their tendency to make even the worst quite pleasant..lol.

    Cheers :-)

      I D/L'd some new sounds for CS, and I was running them through my amped 7.1 with the sound cranked WAY up, and my hearing protectors on :) It sounded close enough to real gunfire. But again, gunfire outside, not in my small 3mx3m brick bedroom.

      Only did that for a while befire I turned the sound levels back down to avoid the neighbours complaining.

        People might have mixed feelings about this, but I think its a very smart discovery. It shows an attention to detail that I admire, and I would love to know how its done exactly. It might not work in the mod I am currently working on, but I am fascinated none the less.

        Some people would be happy to do receive the same old functions, but I appreciate people pushing the boundary of what we know as gameplay.

        Nice Job
