this is a nice reminder that weapon sounds in apb suck, thanks

The sound in this game is so weird.

The RTW era guns and some exceptions (N-SSW) are pretty nice, most others are passable, the late G1 sounds are pretty bad (e.g. AMG 556, Curse)

Some weapons also sound completely different when someone else is shooting them (compared to shooting them yourself) such as the OCA

i remember when the new joker carbine noise came out

 

literally sounded like an intern went outside to go bang two metal trash can lids together.

a lot of new sounds can p much be described that way.

Isn't that literally what the NTEC's current sound is? Obviously not direct 1:1 of course, but yea.

Which N-TEC's ? The SR-15 used to have the same sounds as the CR762

You don't like the sound of clanging metal being distorted in different ways for multiple guns? 

 

Then there's the extra fun ones where they didn't get to do anything for the audio. So instead just outright re-used the exact same audio from other guns.

Scout anyone?

I love the default NTEC-5's sound

I do as well, it's one of the better reports in the game currently. Not the best though.

 

I was just pointing out that from what I've been understanding, it was the origin of the meme as it was the actual literal case.

Oh - I totally misinterpreted your post lol. They definitely have a bit of a stock library mix in there - for instance the STAR 556's sound is found in other games and media, such as Team 17's Army Men : Major Malfunction

That's wild. It even sounds better in that game, more weight to it...

APB's seems to be pitched up just a bit with some extra echo. If you get wounded badly (HVR tag) you'll notice the pitch stats matching better


Also, unrelated to this specific sound, but the conversion to WWise has actually caused many sounds to change a slight bit  (FBW wasn't as clicky in marksman as it is now, the Tommygun sounds a bit more washed out, etc...)

Wow that must have taken some time to record and edit.

Do you actually own all these weapons or are some of them trials too?

Weapon sounds in APB are weird.

You can clearly tell multiple sound designers worked on that game.

 

Some weapons sound like super low effort, some are fine, and then theres some that sound incredibly awesome.

RTW had a whole team of SFX engineers on it
G1 had Farfletched who had both highs and lows
I don't know what the fuck happened after the edinburgh team was dismantled
