Change Rhino Minigun sound


(GatoCommodore) #1

should we change Rhino Minigun Sound to be more scary?
(i mean look at the psychological side, people will get more scared to face him, hiding his vulnerability of not having a medic)

Sure. I basically never hear it while playing as Rhino and against, either I’m deaf, low volume, or it’s a bug I can never hear Rhino’s minigun when revved…

You ain’t that far off though, the sound is distinct (heck a half-deaf like me can hear it over large enough distance) but not enough, I don’t know better word for this, robust. Revving the minigun lacks some depth, bass, from it I feel. Its high and kind of “clinky” now.

Not that its much of a hassle. If I hear that sound I know to stay away and reroute. The real problem arises from those Rhinos smart enough NOT to rev their loud as hell equipment all day long but instead jump on you, rev midair and turn you into finest lil’ blob of mincemeat around.

This could possibly be around Weapon Discussion instead but not that I care much, Rhino or minigun they’re the same curl of heavily armoured saltshaker anyway.

I feel like the sound is too soft. I want it to be sharper and more like the regular guns’ sounds.

the thing is, people think gun with louder noise is more dangerous.
if you change timik and k121 gun sound with softer sound it will get less intimidating.
intimidation is also a weapon.

it gives the shiver down your enemy spine.

You know it’s interesting that miniguns in real life tend to gravitate on the 2000RPM range and Rhino’s minigun almost gets there with 1800RPM, yet for an odd reason it doesn’t sound like the example above…

Sounds like a MASSIVE fart

Rather than PFFFFFFFFFT maybe it should sound a bit more like Bushy’s turret. Maybe they could even switch the sounds (with tweaks so that players don’t get confused).

or…

but its probably copyrighted.

Keep it the way it is, for 1 simple reason. People dont seem to realise that they make any noise at all when charging it.

I had some guy camp the gas tunnel shortcut at the first attacker spawn on Terminal with his minigun charging up, was the funniest thing I ever heard, me and the 3 other dudes on my team just stopped looked into the tunnel, turned to each other and decided to go the normal route instead.


(Peareshakes) #12

I totally agree with this. As of the current moment, I feel as if the m4 sounds louder than the minigun.

It needs to sound like this when revving up…
