Sounds To Me Like...

I'll take the IS weapons for example...
The UAC5 sounds like it's saying "Jam" everytime you fire it... then it jams
The AC10 sounds pathetic. It's not really a bad weapon but the sound comparing to the AC20 the sound differences are ridiculous.
AC20... sweet
Small lasers from both sides. This needs changing, it sounds like it's robots tickling other robots.
I can go on and on but I won't.
The other thing that bugs me, I cannot seem to find a way of getting real 5.1 working. Has anyone managed this?
If it's not supported, this is way overdue (and 7.1 support). I remember playing battlefield in true 5.1 and it was too good (on headphones and speakers).

To me, personally, the worst offenders are:
- AC2 sound. Used to be so awesome. Now it sounds like someone banging an empty metal drum with a stick.
- PPC sound. Sounds like someone smashing a window with a cabinet of porcelain. The recharge sound is cool though.
- Clan streaks. I don't even know what that sounds like. It's terrible.
- MGs. They actually sound like MGs, but just not very impressive ones. Certianly don't sound like 500 kg machine guns.

The sound effects are fine, I would not change them.
Just add some music..

I wish we had a larger sound-mod community.
I'd like a full weapon-conversion sound mod that has better SFX. I don't really like the MW2/3 sounds any more than MWO's.
There are plenty of games with decent weapon sounds.. it would just take someone to browse tons of modern shooters and be motivated to collate samples and pak them up.

A bit to much Star Wars for me
But a sound overhaul would be much appreciated.

What about a MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries one?
Always liked that Gauss "Tjoof!".

I thought the devs had said sound mods are ok.

And overall, the ballistics need more OMMPH!, i love the ac 20 sounds and the clan mg sounds. Now regarding the machine guns they need to be more useful to fit an improved sound set.
And yeah MWO needs more music! For example the themes from the early promotionals being optional to play under the game.
BTW any full MW 4 soundmods out there?

The super heated air would make a sound. The release of that much energy would also, even if inside the mech itself.

I love MW2, but that game is in mono man... Everything sounds like it's all happening inside the cockpit because there's no direction to it. I at least need stereo sounds... (but I would totally use a stereo version of MW2 sounds )
-Edit-
Found this from 2014. Lasers are pretty much silent...

OMFG I am shocked it is the very first time I have read/heard of this!
MW2's Betty messages and warnings are FAR SUPERIOR to MWO's. You don't even need to glance at your mech status diagram because it tells you "critical hit, left torse," "weapon destroyed," etc.
And the missile lock warning has the serious "I'm not shɨtting you TAKE COVER NOW" warning buzzer.
Oh it brings back good memories
If it's not against the EULA I plan to install this for sure.

All I could say at first was LOLOLOLOL. After I got over the laughing fit I have to say this is AWFUL
Ultra Hilarious though

I agree that laser sounds in MWO are kinda weak. I like the pulse laser sound though.
MWO's sounds are definitely better than MW3's and 4's (4's gauss rifle sounded like some kid put his ear to a steel cable and hit it with a rock).
To date I haven't played a single game where the laser sound effect was both 'realistic' and cool/strong sounding. I guess it's another reason I've never really liked laser weapons in video games.
But I think I'm sold on Shivaxi's mod.
