PB2 Sounds

[doggo]

Does anyone notice that most/some of PB2's sounds are from Half Life?

[Terror Only]

what? any examples?

I'm surprised it took you this long to realize this. But yes, most of them are in fact from Half Life/GMod.

what? any examples?

I read on the wiki once that a lot of proxy's sound effects are edited samples from the female rebel NPCs in Half-Life 2 but apart from that I don't know what else might have been used. I think eric is big fan of shooters and borrowed a few ideas from games he liked. Hence why there is the BNG (based on the BFG from doom/quake), the civil security look a bit like the master chief and the assault rifle C-01r looks a lot like the assault rifle also from halo. There are probably some other examples.

just like how civil securities sound like the combines in half life

But... they don't? That was probably the worst example you could have picked.


This game definitely takes inspiration from a few games and it also uses sounds from different games (sniper rifle sound is from COD)

[Terror Only]

sniper rifle sound is from COD

i don't think cod owns copyrights or something like that. all sniper rifles without silencer sound pretty much the same

Probably not, I just know its the exact same sound as the barrett from COD MW2.

Also, sniper rifles can sound different, depending on the round fired and such.

i mean how aliens sound like combines when they die

The Usurpation death sound seems like a low-pitched version of the Combine death sound.

The Civil Security also do sound like the Combine, it's just that it's either too edited to sound like the original or he took inspiration from their police radio-ish sounds.
