I think if they switched the Galil and the AK it would feel right.

M4 sounds nice. AUG sounds familiar to the real thing I think.

The guns I've fired (glock, beretta, AK) all sound pretty close to the real thing now so I bet that's the case with all the guns now. SG also sounds great btw.

If there's one thing the counter-strike community has been clamoring for for ages, it's more realistic sounding guns.

Ya. It's funny that after years of complaining that the sounds clip people are now complaining they changed them.

The ak doesn't sound angry now, I dislike that. I'm not a fan of the guns sounding more alike than not but in a month we'll stop remembering how they used to sound anyway.

No, I think we'll remember that the good sound of the AK that has been a part of counterstrike since 1.6 is different and bad. Might even remember it forever.

You think these sounds that are as iconic as the Quake railgun shouldn't be changed or maybe should be in some form preserved? retard

if you know the map layout you can reasonably surmise where the enemies are located based on the brief red dots on the radar map combined with the radio commands of your team in the chat box

Oh. Yeah.

The best comment about the new sounds I've seen so far was on a vid with them, some dude asking "how to control fullauto with that sound>" which I hope is a joke.

They changed to sound of the guns in the last 24 hours ?

I remember when they updated the sound of the weapons in css, I stopped playing shortly after, because I had over 1k hours in it, and I was dammed if I was going to put up with this new lovely sound.

Fortunately I only have a hundred or so hours in this pay to play , pay for free bulshit version of cs with its keys and boxes and other trash, so dropping it won't be such a big deal.

I am angry about videogames.

Some old sounds sucked and some new sounds suck but it is really annoying that I have to relearn what every gun sounds like for no reason. It is tedious and not fun.


vvvvvv not my point and you are clearly a nerd. changing poo poo just for the sake of it being different and not nessecarily better is retarded

Actually, I think you will find they were good and fun, and that about half of them now sound way worse.

It's possible to not like having to relearn something and disapprove of changes, without it being monumentally difficult to relearn that thing or having the changes be earth-shattering. Especially if you are in a competitive situation and it effects your ability to compete at your best.

Mainly though they just sound less cool.

I mean, they were pretty objectively clipped and painful to hear. Like, if you listened for too long it could legit cause hearing damage.

I liked the old sounds but it hurt to play with high volume. My only complaint with this game now is positional sound being wild. If that was fixed it'd be perfect to me.

The AK47 was the only gun in CS that sounded like you were shooting a gun, which was cool. It's like Arma 3 after the sound updates; you want earplugs just to hear the poo poo over headphones. It rules. Alas, it's not meant to be. Whatever happened to that hitbox fix that was supposed to be in the beta branch the other week? Did that get implemented or is it still being worked on?

So you play a BO2 on two different maps each week? Seems like a more interesting format than ESEA's two BO1s on the same map, with the map changing weekly.
