Sounds of tanks and effects on nearby infantry

[[TW]schneidzekk]

Well, i had alot of 60+ ton tanks driving around me in my life, but to be honest it was loud etc, but it wasn't like my view was shaking or something like that.

You feel vibrations standing on concrete, but it isn't an earthquake.

I think that is yet another thing sadly can't properly be modeled in a game. A tank is loud and frightning, yes, but that is kinda hard to implement.

Then forget the blur effect, this is not a have-to.
But please give the tanks sounds like in the three videos - loud, deep, dangerous.

Id love to hear the tanks changing gear. Remember the sound of the tiger in SPR, before it changes direction to head down the street where Millers boys were waiting?

I forgot to mention that in UO sounds were the same,but wewe got to a point that we recognize a tank just by its tread sounds,it would be a great addition in RO

Ya, the current squeeky sound of tanks could really be improved motor noise etc. I suspect that since the devs "rushed" the vehicles into the game they are taking the time to really give them some character .

I support the idea that tank noises should be louder and be heard from long distances.Also,a little screen shake would be nice if they're really close to you.

Thanks for sharing Rac, very cool videos. Anyone know what they're from?

Thanks for the videos guys, those are the ones I was talking about.

Zekk, I agree they should not cause an earthquake or anything like that, but a very powerful audio effect of an approaching vehicle that is about to run you over would be very nice (I realize its too early to comment, since we have not yet seen any of the new tanks in RO).

But have you ever driven in a semi-destroyed city where everything is so fragil that just a touch of a hand would collapse a house?

Now if you drive those cities, you'd certainly notice that...

lol *remembers when a British Challenger tank destroyed a whole sidewalk in Germany*

Yes, and it makes my view shake instantly

lol didn't mean the shaky view lol, but the thread sounds and hearing buildings crack, etc...

lol why in hell would I post a example like this for a shaky view?

A Challenger destroyed a sidewalk here in Germany? When? Never heard of that...

Somewhere near Bremen during NATO training in 198-something...
