    Yeah, about that...

    I'd pick a new weapon to start with.

    Pop gun sound it originally has made sense when it didn't do a lot of damage and it was for the scout.

    2nd sound would be nice if it ever became a antitank rifle.

    Also isn't that last sound bit the awp from counter strike?

    Last sound is indeed the AWP. And I feel like sound number 4 would fit really well with a shotgun, to be honest.

    2nd or 3rd fits a sniper rifle.

    Doh, I thought it was a "submit your sound for contest" topic, rather than "select between 5 sounds".
    Anyways, i think the actual sniper rifle sound fit it more than the others this videos.

    I think the current sound is perfect for the performance of the weapon. It hardly does damage, it makes sense for it to sound like it doesn't. It's an expy of the scout from CS which sounds similar.

    70 damage to the body is quite a bit of damage, I don't know what you're talking about.

    Pretty much this. It's more of a sharpshooter rifle than a sniper rifle, I don't see why it needs changing.

    These all sound awful and don't fit the scout rifles power at all.

    Also I believe every single one is stolen from another game.

    Admittedly, they do sound awfully familiar.

    I'd like to make my own sound package, an alternative to vanilla sounds... To find good sounds, I like to work with you - the community - to get suggestions and maybe a nice sound package.

    To be clear: the sound package is independently from dev team. In the end, every player can download and use it. I would be very happy, if you vote for your favorite sound... It takes only 2 minutes. :)

    Removed the off-topic posts and provided infractions (1 point for each off-topic post). I also voted for 3.

    Honestly im not getting any feeling, like if we used counter strike sounds I would have selected the scout noise in 3.14 for be and then a heavier pitched silenced m1a4 for NF.
    I voted for 3.

    Now in regards to the sounds, the games do not own how a gun sounds.
    They went to a firing range and recorded gunshots, if we go to freesound.org we can find gun sounds that sound like the same shit in counter strike.

    The only way for the games to own gun sounds is if they remixed it and made custom sound files for their unique weapons.
    Then adding if the weapons do not actually exist, then it would be blatantly ripped and stealing.

    Nobody can sue for gun sounds because they do not own the real weapon model, for example a Beretta or a glock.
    If anyone is going to sue people, its Fabbrica or Glock Ges.
