Kaffarov37 125 Posted January 21, 2016 When they finally get to adding in the new sounds for guns, vehicles and the environmental ambient noises it will definitely help make this game more immersive. I'm kinda getting tired of the usual gate opening noise when your in the middle of a field, along with those birds that never go away. This along with most of the guns and vehicles sounding really off to what they should be. Hearing the echo of gunshots in the distance or just the breeze of the wind as you cross a open field is gonna be pretty cool. Of course being able to hear when someone is shooting beside you would be great. And when they change the damn gear shifting sound, which sounds like someone chucked a few marbles into a garburator What's your thoughts? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bororm 1156 Posted January 21, 2016 I'm looking forward to a day when sounds are actually reliable. I can't hear gunshots my team mates hear half the time and vis versa. I swear if you're behind/at a certain angle from certain guns especially (like the SVD) you just don't hear it at all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend will be sniping and I'll be right beside him when he takes the shot, yet I wont hear a thing. Very irritating when your getting shot at and you can't tell where it's coming from 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Espa 711 Posted January 21, 2016 Oh God, yes. I cannot wait. . I hope this is implemented soon - Or at least brought up really soon. I want to be freaked the hell out at the zombies, as well as be frightened by the natural sound effects. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roguetrooper 201 Posted January 21, 2016 When you play in 3rd person, silenced guns have a different sound, when the camera is behind the gun (i.e. 1st person or shoulder view) then when you turn the camera frontmost. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted January 21, 2016 (edited) 3 and a half years of the same bird sound on a loop. 3 and a half years of the same sound of a chain link fence being kicked. 3 and a half years of the same sound of a bucket being kicked.

Girth Brooks 558 Posted January 21, 2016 I'm ready for them to fix material sounds as well, I know I've scared Biohaze and Coldatrophy several times by punching objects to see if it still makes a bullet on metal ricochet sound. Most of that will be fixed in beta I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ColdAtrophy 1850 Posted January 21, 2016 Damn why all the dislikes on the video I'd guess it's because people are awful. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Espa 711 Posted January 21, 2016 I really enjoy these sounds as well. Makes the Infected terrifying! - I also hope there's better support to keep the night dark and unexploited with higher brightness/gamma. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Killawife 599 Posted January 21, 2016 As long as sounds play when they are supposed to I'm fine with them as they are. When a gun fires 100 m away I want it to sound like the gun is fired 100 metres away, not right next to you or more often than not, not making any sound. When a sound is played like birds flying up scared I want them to do so for a reason. When a chain link fence makes a noise it better be because someone just went over one nearby. Also, the ambient sounds of the forest and the waves are so damn loud. They are nice and ambient and all but take it down a notch or make it adjustable. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YES The waves and the car audio are deafening. Also, you can hear gear shifting further than a longhorn shot. Edited January 21, 2016 by BioHaze 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St. Jimmy 1631 Posted January 21, 2016 Audio will be 65% of the DayZ experience. So yes I'm waiting and I expect it to be a long wait because I'm expecting that they do it right and well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might have a long wait for some specific audio files to get changed out, but the framework for the new audio module has to be in within the next ~9 weeks. Otherwise they are missing another deadline for beta and I really don't think they are going to let that happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E.J. 16 Posted January 22, 2016 1. I'm all for new ambient noises that make sense, but I hope they won't be as overpowering as they are right now. ie- Literally in the middle of an axe fight with all the swearing, and all I can hear are birds chirping with a direct line into my head like they took up residence there.... instead of them being in the distance in the tree line, or on top of the nearby light post, etc. 2. I also hope the new sound system fixes the stereo (is the dolby support planned?) directional sounds as well. ie- Zombie engages, starts chase, and growls... That growl in progress follows my turn (in my left ear) even though I've change directions, and he's on my right. 3. Finally addressed here: https://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/231472-barefoot-quite/ Clunk, clunk, ... CLUNK! Footstep sounds are ridiculous, and should be dependent on footwear type, stance, terrain, speed of movement, etc. IRL, I could easily conceal plenty of extremely loud in game situations... if I was careful and moved appropriately.

☣BioHaze☣ 7337 Posted January 22, 2016 -snip- 2. I also hope the new sound system fixes the stereo (is the dolby support planned?) directional sounds as well. -snip- I believe we might be getting "3D sound" in the future. This means hearing things in relation to their direction, height, and distance as well. Just about everything else you mention is a placeholder. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 1631 Posted January 22, 2016 Arma 3 is getting nice improvements in the sound engine and there seems to be guys that know their stuff very well so I also have high hopes for DayZ also. A lot of good stuff for balanced audio (loudness war) and 3D positional stuff has happened (some cool mono-stereo transition and audio is more and more 3D every day). 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roguetrooper 201 Posted January 22, 2016 Concerning bad sounds, is it just me or does anyone else notice that zombie sounds do not come from the correct speaker (5.1 and more systems)? When there is one grunting zombie nearby, I always hear him from the same speaker, no matter what direction I am facing (no problems in other games). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Killawife 599 Posted January 22, 2016 Yes, the directional audio of infected is not working. It used to, then they broke it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therandomredstone 431 Posted February 18, 2016 The sounds for the past three years have had been the exact same. The sounds that spooked me when I started playing are now part of my DayZ life. My DayZ life is now boring. Bring the new sounds. I am ready. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
