One thing that stood out for me on your post is the; Firing sound when bullets run low. Is that further explained in these vids?

Here’s the quote from the website

The audio fidelity is top notch.
DICE is known for delivering some of the best audio quality in gaming, and we’re not going to disappoint with the weapon sounds in Battlefield 1. From the BANG of a shotgun to the CLINK of an empty click, we recorded a huge amount of real-world audio to use in the game. You can even tell when your magazine is running out of ammo now - your firing sound slightly changes when your ammo is low.

The video doesn’t go into any further detail.

Agreed, maybe the mag will rattle or have a hollow sound to it. Or maybe something along the lines of a CLING! When it’s empty, the M1 Garand was famous for that.

Indeed. I wouldn’t mind for the sake of immersion you double tap square (on ps4) to peek inside mag/gun to see lasting ammo. Or…double tap square that only than and only than a HUD with bulletcounter pops up.

Abother thing I found interesting was the pre load outs.

I want to ask you something weapons designer guy. On the scale 1 to “insurgency” (the steam game), how realistic is the weapon damage model in battlefield 1???

[visegrip117]

I don’t the he spoke of the damage model but he did have this to say about the guns

They feel fast because they are.
If your weapon of choice is an automatic rifle or a powerful LMG, Battlefield 1 is loaded with guns to scratch your trigger finger on. In general, all of the weapons might feel a little faster than you’d expect. On top of adding drag and gravity to the bullets themselves, we increased the bullet velocity. This speeds things up and makes the gunplay feel more authentic.
