    As in the title.

    Shouldn't be hard to do surely?

    Opinions?

    It would be kinda cool if Bio just stamina drained people, and maybe was infectious, but didn't do any real (like 20 or so) health damage xD

    Would a heartbeat be more appropriate? Though geiger counter sounds fine, but would you rename bio to radiation...and do we need radioactive weapons...and why wouldn't DU make that sound..:confused:

    Yeah radiation doesn't really match bio stuff. Radiation gives you the impression that the area you're stood in is radioactive.

    Because surely biological hazard = radiation hazard

    If anything, maybe some kind of chemical reaction sound, although too much and it wouldn't fit either.
    Keep in mind the stuff is supposed to eat armor.

    Maybe it would be nice if there was some kind of sound to indicate when you are bio'd in a vehicle, too, if it was a sound that fits well.

    Start HL2
    Go to Canal Route
    Stand by damage goo
    That sound seems fitting to me.

    True. Any other suggestion for sounds so that it's clearer?

    What about some sort of green pulsing effect around the edges? Quick gif to demonstrate.

    Turn it red for when you get shot and it'll be perfect.

    Maybe make it a bit less intrusive and based around which direction the damage is dealt from.

    Coughing > radiation sound. It's a bio weapon, not a radioactive bomb.
