In Response To: It's like loudness wars. (uberfoop)

: I might have to see it in more action, but...

: Power in sound is produced beautifully in contrast. When everything is
: punchy, nothing is punchy; things turn into a big soup. Adding fifty extra
: clicks and clacks to every sound doesn't exactly help things, either.

: Side-by-side, these sounds are very powerful compared with the originals, but
: that's not necessarily a good thing for the overall soundscape.

: Though admittedly, Halo 2 could definitely use some of its sounds punched
: up. The sniper always seemed muffled and filtered compared with Halo 1's,
: for instance.

I found it difficult to play the H2A MP at PAX at times due to how loud some sounds were, I had to lower the volume way down as some of the sounds was just over the top deafening. That said, the new sounds are an improvement and still feel close enough to the originals I am able to identify them much easier than H4's.
