Weird metallic/zombie noises sometimes

[libertine 351]

I keep hearing strange noises, which seems like only when another player is near, like bullets maybe and little snaps and gun movement sounds maybe. Also little bits of zombie groans/yells that are cut-off.  I don't think its intentional. I hope not anyway because as a solo player, i need all the stealth i can get and an alarm system for bandit groups isn't what i'd call fair, especially when if im following a player, its just to determine their behavior -good or bad, how else am i going to get gun play if im role-playing a decent dude.

The metallic sounds are ambient game noises, and the cut off zombies are rabbits (who are based off zombies atm). You just have to learn to recognize them and you can shut them out.

I just went by some armed players that were around me for awhile, not known by them btw and i didn't hear any metallic sounds, so thats good. Ambient sounds are an excellent idea and the way they are implemented is nice. Usually in games, those types of sounds are generic and easily recognizable and dismissed. Here they are actual noises used by gun related stuff, making me wonder whats up. Thats great. I also hear little branch breaking noises every now and again. Eventually I hope they add in more noises, with different volumes and location differences. Ideally i it would be nice if there was a steady stream of new slightly different ambient and even gun noises to keep the player guessing.

I miss the old "lumber mill" music that would play. That shit was fucking creepy but I loved it.

 

Might be what you're hearing?
