Title: original sound improvment
Post by: Goncalo on Wednesday, December 04, 2013, 19:20:56 PM
Im not sure if you guys can change it, but it would be cool to make the original sound better. Lot of new players and probably 50% of old players dont know that you can change sound volume to 2.0 on armyops.ini (u can only make 1.0 on sound menu) and also change 64 channels on onboard sound cards and 128 channels on xfi.

In americas army sound is more important than in counter strike for example, this would help players do reach higher skill faster and improve gaming competition. if you could only make an option on assist to change this directly would be great

ya but then make also fastswap/-crouch etc. as standard, turn off shadows and other bugs. this would even things out and would elevate competition in this game. and it would be more user friendly.

dont agree with taking out fast swap, it makes the game too slow, and thats not good for competition level.
with shadows off i agree totally

Plenty of other games with fastswap built in where you don't have to exploit and go against the developer's goals.

We need to keep this games as realistic as possible, I won't agree with shadows nor fast swap. Sound could be improved but I would just suggest this in a month time or later as admins got lots of stuff to do anyways.

lol u dont want it taken out nor set as standard. so it stays as a feature for an elite of experienced players? i dont know how many % of players are usin it, maybe 70-80%? so the game should be fair? and that should elevate competition?

well remove it and most of ppl will quit playing. in every fps game nade or weapon switch is fast, why would it be so slow in americas army? it just makes the game so boring. and yes probably 8'0% use it, and those who doesnt can always learn. its good as it is, im just asking to improve the sound, thats what makes the diference

By speeding up weapon switch you bring unrealistic game feature. I think you got this idea from COD or BF4 or elsewhere...We don't need this, it is fine as it is, its always been right that.

Removing shadow is a bad idea too. People can learn from it to improve their knowledge of the game, it is also part of realism in the real life army.

Improving sound is not a bad idea, but I would bring this suggestion in a month or two

The shadow should be removed because it isn't realistic seeing it through walls. Unfortunately, there are some engine limitations.

well 2.8.5. had no fastswap and a large competition history. the animations were just slightly faster than 2.5. this was probl the best compromise devs have done.

2.8.5 did have fastswap, you might have not known how to do it. They did limit the ways of doing it.

you missunderstood me, I dont wanna speed up anything, im defending that it should be as it is. 
yes whenever admins can, but it has to be done and it will help alot :)

Agree.

About the fast swap: we do not need fast swap per se, but we need a little bit faster animations for this if it gets removed. Otherwise flashing and nading will be kind of useless if it's not used as a spamming purpose.

Won't be useless. It's used as strategic purpose, you have to choose the right moment to flash, and not fastswap to flash immediately when you see an enemy. I guess there would be more 1 v 1 shooting duels instead of flashfights.

But I have no opinion about this, doesn't really matter for me

There will only be shooting fights in this way from close, since now you need the time to grab the flash on top of the time to take the pin out and cook it. That will be too long and will only work when you can jump in a hole or behind a wall for cover.

Other fps games pull out nades and flashes instantly, in AA even with fastswap it takes some time. No need to make it even slower.
