So how does everyone feel about the weapon sounds in Infinite? I generally like most of them, but I’m hoping more sounds have a hint of Legacy’s weapons sounds. I feel like the bulldog, needler, plasma pistol single shot ( the overcharge is spot on), S7, and spnker would be perfect with just an added old legacy sound to the mix. Thoughts?
I personally liked the sound of the Sniper and Spnker in the tech test. I do agree that the Needler could use a little something more, and the explosion sound of the Needler supercombine could use more of a glass/crystal shattering sound to it. I felt like the Bulldog was suitably punchy enough for me and didn’t really use the Plasma Pistol enough to get a good opinion on how it sounds.
every gun sounded crisp, bassy and realistic. I only miss the sniper’s iconic “swish” sound from 2, 3 and reach
I was hoping of a New Advanced BR Type that does 4 shot burst instead of 3. That’s just me. 
For me, all the UNSC weapon sounded good. Heavy and metal love it. All the plasma weapon could need a sound buff.
The Needle missing the crystal sound, but 343i is on it Plasma Pistol (Primary Fire) along with enhancing the Gravity Hammer, so that is good.
They are addressing the only ones I had issues with. The sound design is immaculate.
They appear to be adressing the most obvious issues. Hopefully they get the Plasma Grenade right as well. I’m going to pay more attention to the sound effects going forward.
the only issue I had with it is that a lot of the reaload sounds sounded… weak. like sure, they could sound more “realistic” but in a sci fi game 500 years in the future, I’d rather have more metal-ly clank-y and satisfying sounds. something closer to Halo 5.
I really enjoyed most of the weapon sounds in the flight, the only one I didn’t like was the needler but I already know they have fixed it to be more crystal-like now.
The guns sound incredibly crisp and beefy. Like every single bullet has weight to it, and make your shots feel stronger. As it stands so far, I am a big fan.
I liked all the ones that I was able to observe from other gamers playing the flight. I thought that all of them that I was able to see and or hear were pretty spot on. None of them seem unrealistic or plain and or plasticky like some of the previous games. As other posters have said, I too am glad they are fixing the needler sound.
