How they make Call of Duty 3 firearms sounds or, I have the wrong job

[grimjaw]

If this has been posted before, I apologize. I searched but couldn't find an existing thread.

Here's a link to a YouTube video of the recording of sounds of firearms for the Call of Duty 3 video game. Looks like they rolled out everything including a tank and recorded the audio. They even got to fire a flak cannon. I hadn't seem operation of some of these guns before. This is as close as I can get to Knob Creek and the like.

Great find. I am playing CoD3 at the moment so it's cool to see the range work that went into it. Man do I need to get a new job.

Did anyone catch where a guy looks in the muzzle of a loaded rifle?!?!

There is an edit in between the loading and the guy looking down the muzzle, so it could have been unloaded before he took a peep.

My friend is one of the producers of the series. He is a featured character in the new one, as well. However, I have not played the game so I have to take his word for it. I love video games but don't get to play like I should.

That was great!

I WANT that job. I would really like a chance to play with some of those things...the British Bren LMG, German MG42, whatever those drum-fed MG's on the SAS-Force jeeps, drive a Polish tank, etc.

Game studios sound production values are on par with a Hollywood studio movie production. It is that good. If not better.
It must be fun as hell to be a sound designer for one of those games.
I haven't played a video game in forever.
Swore off video games after an unhealthy addiction to a particular title. Let's just say Viking mayhem can get addictive.

Yes, it could have been unloaded - but Iesus Christ on a pogo stick, you just don't DO that!

Nice find, I'm seriously jealous of them getting to fire the MP44, thats 'prolly my favorite weapon in the whole game.

That is awesome! I played COD3 on the 360 for all of 2 days before I finished it.

COD3 sucks compared to COD2. BIA Hells Highway is gonna be awesome
