Very high quality sound mod and weapon optics system

Post by sean.vemma899 »

I wanted to suggest an amazing sound/weapon mod for the origins team.
The link is: http://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/1 ... sound_mod/

If you guys have ever played DayZero before, you will know that they have the best gun fire and movement sounds in Arma 2 hands down. They re-tweaked every weapon in the game into a very balanced manner. They changed recoil, the look, the view kick, the damage and of course the sound of each and every gun you can find in the mod. This link includes all the sound files they have used for their mod and it also includes the weapons they added.

The way DayZero has their weapon optic system set up I think would be an awesome add to origins as well. When you loot a weapon in the DayZero mod, you only can find the base variant of the weapon meaning the stripped down version of it. If you wanted to mount a scope on the weapon, you would have to loot the different types of optics at military barracks and then you would right click the gun to see which optics are compatible with that specific weapon and you mount the appropriate optic to create a modified version of the weapon. So for example, you could actually create the Mk12 SPR from the base M16A4 variant by adding a sniper scope to it which changes the name of the rifle and the characteristics of it. You could change the standard M9 beretta into a silenced M9 beretta with a flash light by mounting the silencer and flashlight to the pistol. You could even make the base 416 rifle into a 416 CCO silenced grande launcher variant by adding a CCO optic, silencer and grande launcher to the rifle. So when you take someone down in origins and if this system was implemented, you can find a vast array of these customized weapons that other players created instead of just the same old standard Arma 2 weapons. Players would have the option to ether re-modify the looted weapon, or keep it as is. It would add an entirely new aspect to firefights and that huge weapon customization aspect that all DayZ players adore.

I think it would be awesome to see these sounds and/or the optics system and even the different weapons like the 416 variants implemented into origins (DayZero mod is a perfect example of this). It would make the mod look more high quality, weapon shots would sound more satisfying, add more customization to players and origins would stand out even more among the others.
