Can of soda in the wild?

[Akire 1]

A while ago a new sound was added to the ambient sounds. Birds and wind is perfectly fine. The one that sounds like movement in a fence is also perfectly natural. But this new sound sounds just like someone is opening a can of soda. Don't know if this is to create excitement but I still feel like it is not natural and distracting from the real action. Maybe it suppose to sound like something else but the resemblance is undeniable and really uncanny.

This is a alpha so thought I should voice my opinion even about the little things. This is already a really fun game. I'm hoping it will just get better with a strong community at the developers backs.

It's a bug and this is not really a suggestion or is it?

Oh my god.

 

Are you.... really?

 

I can see that you are new here so I'm not gonna call you an idiot.

 

This has been DISCUSSED over 12 times a DAY

 

This has two explanations :

 

Explanation #1 : You can hear gates opening/people eating/cans opening/people drinking/people reloading because it is all a part of the ambient in game sounds

 

Explanation #2 : You can hear the sounds described above because it's a bug and you will hear them when someone performs that action anywhere in the map.

The gate/fence rattling sound is an actual ambience sounce ported over from the mod. The random cans opening/drinking/eating/zombie sounds are a bug where sounds are briefly broadcasted over the entire server.

 

If you'd use the search function you'd know that already, it's discussed all the time and is also in the bug reports.

Yea I didn't check the forum at all on this. I didn't think it was the exact same sound as the can opening players do, even if it did catch my attention. I assumed it was meant to sound like something ells and therefore wasn't a bug but a part of ambient. But thanks for the oh so passionate responses.  

And about: Explanation #1 : You can hear gates opening/people eating/cans opening/people drinking/people reloading because it is all a part of the ambient in game sounds 

​That was what I was suggesting against if this was the case.

This is alpha

 

 

 #1 Yeah, you are completely right and this is why you should of just kept it in your head.

 

#2 This isnt even a suggestion

I don't understand how this isn't a suggestion. Now If it is not a bug (if it were then I wouldn't care and wouldn't post about it because like you quoted this is alpha) but if it is in the ambient sounds then I suggest against it. If it is meant to sound like something ells or if it is placed there to  create excitement it is taking away from the realism that create so much action in this game.

But sure I guess it a different suggestion then how you should be able to make armor out of phone books and duct tape, but this has been released so the creators would be able to get as much feedback as possible.
