Is it just me, or does a mech mounting an AC/2 (or 4) drown out pretty much every other sound in the game when it's firing? Additionally, their firing sound does not seem to be originating from the right place (i.e. the firing mech), often it sounds like it's coming from off to the side somewhere. It's actually rather disorienting for someone like me who relies on stereo sound effects for a degree of situational awareness. Please tone down the AC/2 sound effects and double check the sfx's point of origin.

(Please don't clutter this thread with comments about AC/2 cockpit shake, DPS, or other aspects of the weapon - there's plenty of other threads about those topics.)

It seems to me that some people just HAVE to find things, ( perceived or actual ) to cry about.
I run 4 AC-2's, and find the sound effects just fine.

I don't see that this is a problem. The sound is a great way to find those AC2 Phracts.

I think the first person rigs for the mechs differ significantly from the 3rd person rigs, which would account for some of the weird self shadows not animating we used to see.

I searched for "ac/2 sound effect" and all I found was a week-old post that simply mentioned sound effects in passing. Thanks for pointing out another thread for me

I'm sure the sound is fine from the perspective of the firer, I never noticed anything while shooting them either. Mind you it's been a few patches since I've mounted one.

Since this seems to be a known issue already, I guess this thread can be closed. Thanks again Zero
