Sniper sound effects and the Sniper gun

Am i the only one that does not like the sniper? It is not like the one on halo 3 and feels poor to shoot.

And

The Sniper sound effects What is up with it?

Sounds like a nail gun gone wrong. Sounds poor.

452 Could not even get that right.

This game is not halo.

I think the sound is terrible. I don’t feel any differences between the mechanics in this game and Reach, but the sound effects stink.

I love it. All aspects of it. It sounds like it’s got a mean punch to it.

The Sniper Rifle does sound worse than any other Halo right now. But atleast it isn’t a departure like the BR–now that gun is pretty sad sounding.

So, uh… the sound of ONE weapon makes the game unplayable for you? Gameplay is much more important.

P.S: Who is “452”?

I dont really mind the sound. Not super beefy like H3, but still sounds like it packs a punch.

And i dont know why, but i find sniping in this game is easier. Not far easier, but enough to notice a difference.

The sound sounds ten times better than the other Halo games to me.

The Sniper kicks back as if it’s being held by a skinny twelve year old.

This has to be a troll thread… 452?? Seriously? Lol.
OT: I love this iteration of the Sniper.

The sniper rifle is using the sound from a 50. cal. I dont like the 50 but it sounds just fine to me.

I don’t like the look of it, it’s way too big. The scope on top of it takes up half my screen when I run, it’s terrible. Just compare running with the sniper and running with the beamrifle.

Also, getting shot by another sniper while zoomed is the worst. Before you would descope and get away more easily or go for a no scope/quickscope. Now my zoom goes way up, leaving me completely desoriented. Before you could still win the battle by quickly zooming in or no scoping. Now it’s just over, no chance to shoot back.

A Sniper Rifle is a weapon of ultimate precision and focus. I don’t know about you, but if I were being shot by live bullets, I’d probably find it pretty hard to focus. I mean, I know Halo isn’t known for it’s realism, but I think this was a good call by 343.

Love the new sound more than any previous games, but to each their own…

LOL

Yes, maybe they can add suppression as well, to make it more realistic.

I don’t care about the shooting sound, i only care about the sound when you get shot, it sounds so annoying, makes me feel bad when i snipe someone

I don’t like how it feels or the sound. This visuals are ok. Sounds like someone swinging a bat at a metal chain fence.

> Sounds like a nail gun gone wrong.

Saying it sounds like a nail gun “gone wrong” is like saying it sounds like six whales having an -Yoink!- under a layer of sediment at the bottom of the Mariana’s Trench in the Pacific Ocean…

Nobody has a -Yoinking!- clue what that sounds like.

LMAO @ 452 industries, though.
