In reply to DriverPadakaChessnuts. I don't necessarily mean the quality of the gunshots, I sort of misspoke. What I meant was more along the lines of the effects of the sound, particularly at long range. Battlefield 3 seemed to do a really really great job of replicating distant sound, echoes, and that sort of thing quite a bit better, imo.

In reply to David Jagneaux. It sounds even more realistic than BF3 imo. BF3 has that idealised hollywood style to it where it's designed to sound better, but not necessarily more authentic (a la Star Wars space noise in space...). ArmA 2 and 3 sound way more authentic.

This game looks pretty good if you have the patience for it. I tend to be horrible at these types of shooters. I was aawful on operation flashpoint. But maybe I’ll give this a try some day if it’s cheap enough.

Only thing that stands out for me is the gun audio. It doesn’t sound anywhere near as authentic as Battlefield 3, but maybe that will improve once it moves out of Alpha.

Great video!
