skully172 33 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) CHANGE THE M4 SOUNDS, THATS ALL. It sounds way too weak! and aparently there is a new m4 sound: Edited June 27, 2014 by Skully172 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stielhandgranate 480 Posted June 25, 2014 I agree. The Dev Team could go to a range that rents out automatic weapons like at Las Vegas or Czech Republic and fire live rounds (LIVE ROUNDS, not blanks) with recording equipment for a more authentic experience. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beeftenderloin 2 Posted June 25, 2014 The sound does not need changing. Having fired a similar rifle, the L98A2, in real life, the M4 sound is perfectly adequate.Remember, it's only a 5.56mm round - that's roughly the size of a .22 round, just with a larger charge behind it.When you are firing the weapon, the sound is directed mostly to your direct front and sides, you hear relatively little of the report. What you do hear, however, is the working parts moving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beeftenderloin 2 Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) Listen to this video of an AR-15 firing.From the position of someone behind the weapon - i.e, you, in game, the weapon makes a very small report. The sound we hear is some of the sound of the weapon firing, the sound of the working parts moving, and the weapon's report echoing back off the surroundings.

RDogg 42 Posted June 25, 2014 The sounds in DayZ are horrible in general. They weren't exactly top notch in ArmA II either, which is ironic. If you haven't already, I suggest checking out JSRS at some point on ArmA II. That is what it should be like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What you do hear, however, is the working parts moving. Have you ever fired your rifle without Earpro? It will deafen you. 5.56 not only has a longer casing than a .22 and thus more of a bang, but the birdcage style flash suppressor does little to mitigate noise.

The sound we hear is some of the sound of the weapon firing, the sound of the working parts moving, and the weapon's report echoing back off the surroundings. Videos are not accurate representations of being near a firearm being discharged. Even the humble M855 will deafen a shooter without earpro. http://www.freehearingtest.com/hia_gunfirenoise.shtml http://www.arl.army.mil/www/default.cfm?page=351 I'm not saying there should be a peanlty in game for using a firearm. What I am implying is a firearm should be very loud noticeable and not the current weak noise it is in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kakysas666 191 Posted June 26, 2014 the m4 sound is changed already in experimental. And I am not sure I like it. It sounds too similar to AKM now. Sharper than before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

saamohod 45 Posted June 27, 2014 The current M4 sound is ridiculous, it is true. No firearm sounds like that IRL. Check the videos in previous posts to get the idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
