just heard audio of some mystical parallel universe where we have 5.0 solid barrel and 5.01-present gnashing fang SFX.
It's absolutely beautiful.

I would ask more serious question. 5.01 patch was huge downgrade. I'm not saying 5.0 was objectively top tier, but 5.01 sounds like a club, which is wrong. The question should be "when are you going to fix it" and not "are you going to fix it".
They blatantly ignore our feedback and this is not cheap F2P game so we have all rights to expect some level of quality. They are really reaching level of a very specific studio with name starting on B, and i'm concerned.
GNB FX it's just perfect for me !
Having heard the mod now, I can say its vastly superior to the current sounds other than the fact they should port over the 5.01 explosion sfx for burst strike too, other than that the devs should just take that mod and implement it lol.

Same here tbh. Return us to great sound design.
I agree but it is still subjective to the user. So wording that way is ignoring the portion of players that supposedly enjoy the new effects. At least this is a more reasonable question to make it open and aware of how some people hear the SFX. Better chance of it not being ignored as a question. That'd be like saying "The final boss of Shadowbringers is boring, make it interesting." That's subjective without much reason or open-ness and would likely be just as easy to ignore. We can't just have pitch forks and torches for all of it; we have a chance to be mature and ask the question as a genuine player. Let's show we're not heathens/trolls and ask while we have a chance to have it recognized.I would ask more serious question. 5.01 patch was huge downgrade.

The 5.01 GNB SFX seems to puts more focus on the slashing/slicing sound and the explosion sound rather than than the constant clanking that 5.00 GNB SFX but because they got rid of the "bang" part like you were firing a gun, the dip quality became that much clearer, because 5.01 GNB SFX is only missing the "bang" part which seems to be the thing I want more but that's just a me thing...
I get your point, but 5.01 sounds like a club. Some people might like it for any reason and it's not for me to judge them, but it's objectively wrong design. They just used sound effects of different type of weapon.I agree but it is still subjective to the user. So wording that way is ignoring the portion of players that supposedly enjoy the new effects.

The problem is, there's no slicing in our version now.... It's clubbing and heavy swings. The explosions are greater and almost overdone, but really I feel like the trigger pulls and complex sounds we heard before made the blade unique to the others.The 5.01 GNB SFX seems to puts more focus on the slashing/slicing sound and the explosion sound rather than than the constant clanking that 5.00 GNB SFX but because they got rid of the "bang" part like you were firing a gun, the dip quality became that much clearer, because 5.01 GNB SFX is only missing the "bang" part which seems to be the thing I want more but that's just a me thing...
You're not wrong and I agree entirely, but right now is the best chance we have of that getting noticed. Especially with how many likes it has too.
