Anyone notice how the new Skinline: Oni has little, to almost no sound effects what-so-ever whilst shooting...? Quite disappointing when compared to the VFX sounds of the Prime skin set. This really bothers me unfortunately. I love the visuals, and the reload is sweet as well, but even the reload is very quiet. Just me??

Context as well, this is for the Phantom I'm speaking about. I don't have the other guns.

Yeah, considering the Oni skins are the same tier as the Prime and Sovereign skins I'm quite sad there are almost no sound effects, or at least in game I can't hear any sound effects at all. It would be excellent if there were some sound effects that could be mixed or added, or for some clarification about whether this is a bug or not. I like the whispy reload sound but I can not hear it at all in game :( EDIT - typos fixed

It’s not a bug. We wanted to try to make a skin that had more subtle ghostly sound effects to see what players would like. Some people want effects and stuff but don’t want the audio to differ too much. We’re trying to experiment with thematics and make stuff that’ll cater to all sorts of people.

I'll bring it up with the team. No promises on any changes though!

No, same for me, and I can't imagine that it's intended. It feels super weird not to have the reticle border in the first half second or so of scoping in, and I hope it'll get fixed soon.

Our FX team is aware and taking a look. Thanks for pointing that out!

Awesome! Also another bug, if you ADS the whispy effects around the demon mouth completely disapppears.

We did that intentionally so that the whispy effects do not block your peripherals to the left and the right of your gun while looking down the scope. We felt they were creeping up a little too much into the gameplay space otherwise.
