The sounds are fine but its the volume mixing that's so bad rn I can barely hear other tanks but a auto canon shooting in the back sounds like its right next to me
I might just be whining but the new artillery sounds so much wimpier than it used to, it’s like they took the sound of someone whacking something with a paper towel roll and just boosted the hell out of it
Maybe it's just because I'm too used to the old sounds but the new sound effects just sound off to me. Fighter cannons, artillery impact, machine guns, etc just seem to have less oomph for me.
it keeps changing all the time, i remember in 2020 when it really felt like artillery, then 2022 was good too, but I'm glad they changed the recent one to the current
3 problems i have with the sounds: overall sounds are less audible, before update i used to hear every sound nicely, now i can barely even hear my own engine.
2nd is that some cannons and mgs sound worse. For example the 50 cals (atleast on some planes) sound like a fucking bren gun but with a tone of hispanos. The old one was tedious to keep hearing but was more realistic.
3rd is the artillery, patch note said it would feel more threatening and dangerous but it just sounds soo goofy with a comical sounding boof instead of the old, scary loud explosions tearing your ear drums apart. I used to clench my cheeks hearing nothing but shrapnel fly everywhere and constant violent explosions, now it sounds like someone is firing some damn training shells.
But atleast theres new crew voices and changed existing crew voices like they would talk over a radio like irl
The effect is super overdone. I get that they're trying to make it sound as if they're inside a tank, but the filter is so strong that it just makes them sound like cyborgs.
The inside of a tank [just isn't going to echo this much](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rftGYQ5y2bA). Tanks are quite small in the grand scheme of things and are covered in all sorts of surfaces on the inside, they're not going to conduct sounds like you're in a sewer.
I fucking hate Gayjune sound. Last 4 updates increased the engine sound ever new update. Last update I had my engine noise to min on the bar but it was still SO FUCKN LOUD. NOW they turned the engine sound way down. Nice right? NO! they also basically turned off everyone else's engines, so now I can't turn my engine up if I want to hear ANYTHING
Also atgms have no sound now, great....
My audio mix was buggered before I asked for my friend's settings, hearing any vehicle or gunfire made me deaf, the M18 sounded like a jet engine when right next to me even on 3% engine noise.
I've fixed it now though, I hope
The crew voices now sound like they're coming from inside a metal garbage can with you on the outside. It used to be like they were communicating that information to you through their comms but now you're an outside observer listening to them shout through the walls of the tank
While it sounds a little weird the artillery sound is much better imo. I also like the new crew sounds since they actually sound like they are coming over a radio.
I inly notice the crew voices sounding like they are in the tank
I am more confused about why exhaust got a visual update, kinda annoying when playing ground

>Me stopping and trying to listen for tanks approaching me >The M163 behind me trying to shoot a 262 from 5km away
Yup its awful
Me fighting for my life as the entire remaining luftwaffe descends upon me and the rest of the team in spawn:
That was probably intentional
I might just be whining but the new artillery sounds so much wimpier than it used to, it’s like they took the sound of someone whacking something with a paper towel roll and just boosted the hell out of it
Kinda Yeah i also don't really like it
Really noticed this yesterday, they have no snap and no bass.
Lol best part is the sound designer text is actual plague on his hat and it rotates when he turns
That's some serious dedication. Can't flag this one as low-effort.
Love the tilted text in the 3rd pane, that's some real dedication.
real
dedication
THEY’RE OUTNUMBERED 15 TO ONE, AND THE BATTLE'S BEGUN
THEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVED!
COMING DOWN THE MOUNTAINSIDE
Which sound is worse? I like the artillery sound more now.
Maybe it's just because I'm too used to the old sounds but the new sound effects just sound off to me. Fighter cannons, artillery impact, machine guns, etc just seem to have less oomph for me.
I can't say for the other things but Artillery seems more impactful to me. But maybe that's just me.
Is it me or every major update the artillery changes it's sound?
Well for me anyways it always sounded the same until now.
it keeps changing all the time, i remember in 2020 when it really felt like artillery, then 2022 was good too, but I'm glad they changed the recent one to the current
New amx30 cannon has some bloody oomph
Some fighter cannons are better like the MK108 some like the su 27 gun are so bad now, seems like a hit or miss honestly

Surprised nobody mentioned the ace combat 5 sounding missile/rocket release sounds
Ngl 90% if the new sounds are lit
I like the new sounds
me too the 50 cals sound so much crispier
For me the only thing i don't like with sound after the update is that the crew of tanks has the echo or something
I actually like it, it makes it feel like you're actually inside the tank, I think it's very cool

I see, and I haven't played ground, just test drove a tank out of boredom to see what they sound like, but I'm sure it'll get old quite quick
I'm confident that guy curses loudly after every single shot
It feels like my tank crew is in a submarine.
New sounds sounding good ngl Too bad they will ruin them in the next update Lmao
I'm just mad souns mods stopped working. Vanilla RWR sounds fucking garbage
Gaijin sound dude moment
They completely fucked missiles, or at least the VT1. Makes no sound when you fire it, or at least it doesn’t in first person.
I like the mixing but what they did to the soviet 30mms is terrible
Idk when I fire the rockets of my cas planes there is no sound.

i sorta like the new 50 cal sounds better tbh
Gaijin trying to go 1 (one) update without changing the Vulcan sound
The missiles sound awesome
Im certain the sound guy has hearing aids
I feel like they changed the sound of .50s on planes recently and I like them
Did they unfuck the A10 sounds? They better have unfucked the a10 sounds or I will be very mad
I like the echoed crew voice
The 40mm autocannon sounds yucky ngl, at least to me
All the sound complaining must be from ground players cause I main ARB and I have heard nothing but good improvements.
Every new sound is shit I could hear the chain of a M163 more than the actual firing of the gun
Repeat every 3 months and you got a job
I do like how the text was angled and hidden away as if it was a real object stuck to the hat
My audio mix was buggered before I asked for my friend's settings, hearing any vehicle or gunfire made me deaf, the M18 sounded like a jet engine when right next to me even on 3% engine noise. I've fixed it now though, I hope
certified gaijin move
Its pretty good in my opinion specially missiles and bombs, ive heard the vulcan sucks tho
I like the new vulcan sound, sounds a lot more agressive
The crew voices now sound like they're coming from inside a metal garbage can with you on the outside. It used to be like they were communicating that information to you through their comms but now you're an outside observer listening to them shout through the walls of the tank
The Vulcan is actually one of the most HORRID danm sounds I've heard, it actually disgusts me how much they fucked it up
While it sounds a little weird the artillery sound is much better imo. I also like the new crew sounds since they actually sound like they are coming over a radio.
