We always try to have the base sound of the gun present in the skin firing audio to keep it recognizable with the base gun. For every person who wants vastly distinct audio (Person A) , there’s another person who wants to know what they’re firing when they hear it (Person B). We err on the side of competitive integrity, so we wouldn’t want Person B to pick up Person A’s skin and feel like it hindered their gameplay.
Regardless, this is good feedback. If we keep hearing stuff like this, we can try to tune firing audio even more. I assume you haven’t tried it in game yet (since only a few influencers have played with it), so if you pick it up off the ground let me know what you think.
I’ve tried it in-game many times and always thought the firing was very unique and watching a video doesn’t quite convey the feeling the same way for me.
