Armour sounds

[Banok]

You should be able to hear it when someone in plate armour moves, and hear them coming like you would. plus this gives people some small incentive to mix it up a bit and maybe wear something lighter if they want to flank.

-1 let people flank in whatever gear they want, plus th4e armor weight and the reduced speed already prevents you from being a real effective flanker.

This has been suggested over and over again, never got any attention from the devs

[Nehvar]

+1 for metal armor making sound when moving.

So lamellar/studded leather coat/light strange armor and up.

[Aleskander]

So lamellar/studded leather coat/light strange armor and up.

Everything that weighs over 10. But with a reduced/different noise depending on weight and makeup of armor/

[rustyspoon]

It would make it more realistic, but I would rather not have this happen. For one thing, I would probably get annoying with all the people wearing heavy armor nowadays. Also, it would make it harder to hear horses coming. In my opinion, anything that makes it harder to hear horses = bad.

+1. also add farting sounds etc to make the game moar reallüstüche

[Christo]

+1 from me.

It's just plain retarded when I look away for 3 seconds, I look back and 10 men came out of nowhere, without a sound.

It's a great suggestion but the reason probably you haven't gotten any response from the devs is because it's not feasable progam game wise.

You can't have individual sounds for PIECES of armor but you can have sound for a whole thing for example a HORSE. If you're ON a horse or if the horse is roaming around the HORSE has its own sound file. There's only one sound file for a person, the walking/running sound probably. You can't have individual sound files for pieces or items on a character just doesn't work programming wise.

Unless, once someone has any armor type item on them or if they're fully armored then have a armor sound file, but again that's totally nonprogrammable. It's just not possible from a programmer's standpoint. They would have to add a big ass special programming code just so that can happen.

Plus the devs are just using what has already been programmed(BY Bethesda or whoever CREATED the game) and can't change that. They can add different items and stuff and change textures on things. They could even replace a sound file for example of the HORSE and change it to a PIG so instead of the horse sound you have snorting, lol. They can't change something that in-depth. Don't think they get in there and make massive code changing, the game is kind of set already and can only be embellished a bit.

BUT AN AWESOME SUGGESTION! I hate all those armored bastards especially when I'm not wearing my armor and have a pike and hand axe only, lol.

Bethesda did not create this game...

RCIK JEMAES BCTIH!

Yeah been suggested before. Infantry movement sounds are one of the biggest things missing in the game. Also this would actually buff cavalry a little since in a middle of a large battle following cav sounds would be more difficult. There should be little to no sound on clotch, leather and nude guys, some sounds for mail and different louder sound for plate. Also the epicness of large army of plated guys glonking to the battle would be awesome. I'm fairly sure chadz might consider this if someone would make a working system for it. Any takers?
