djb204 603 Posted November 23, 2018 Some calls (not all), but some animal calls we hear off in the distance make me question whether an animal is a actually there, or if the ambient sounds from the world include occasional animal sounds? A few times I’ve attempted to locate a moose or bear that I heard off in the distance but never seen any sign of the animal even though the calls continued. I’d crisscross the areas, walk in circles around the areas, and even though the calls continue to be heard, the animal appears to be non existent. Are there animal calls included with the world’s ambient sounds? Specifically in the grizzlies? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fennimoe 4,208 Posted November 23, 2018 Not sure, but that ONE bird screeching sound bothers the f*ck outta me... Eeeeeeee eeeeeeee eeeeeeee eeeeeeee Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CryptReaperDorian 182 Posted November 23, 2018 I don't know if those are ambient sounds or not. Really, this game shouldn't have such ambient sounds if it's already teeming with wildlife as it is (each animal sound should have a source). Getting spooked by a wolf that's not actually there would be pretty nasty prank from R*, me thinks. 10 minutes ago, Fennimoe said: Not sure, but that ONE bird screeching sound bothers the f*ck outta me... Eeeeeeee eeeeeeee eeeeeeee eeeeeeee Is that the one that sounds like a virgin woman being sexually assaulted and sacrificed to Satan? Because that's legit horrifying, lol! That's probably Shirrako up to his usual business. . . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edward Nashton 1,829 Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) I’m pretty sure some of those sounds are from an ambient audio track. EPILOGUE SPOILERS AHEAD: It’s pretty evident at Marston’s ranch where I can hear a phantom dog barking a few feet away and Rufus is napping on the porch right next to me. And then there’s that weird “giggling” noise that sounds like it’s right next to my ear 😨 Edited November 23, 2018 by Edward Nashton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0223998743 3,175 Posted November 23, 2018 I would say each sound come from an actual animal being there. Each time I heard bushes moving or sound I've always saw animals. Now, I've never actually looked into that and searched, but I think it is worth it to do it for sure. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The FoolYT 1,039 Posted November 24, 2018 yea i think there are ambient sounds, especially the bear and the moose noise which seem to originate from no where. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can hear a dog in Mexico where Chuparosa was too if you glitch through there. I love the ambient sounds. Especially in Tall Tree's. Except that weird breathing sound that surprisingly is still there from RDR1 tall trees. I couldn't believe my ears when i heard it in the new Tall Trees. It's rather creepy and i have no idea what animal it is. It sounds like a sleeping bird or something. It can only be heard at night just like in Rdr1. Anyone remember that annoying whistling sound in RDR1?. I think you could only hear it in West Elizabeth at night time. Yeah that's forever in my head. Has been for 8 years haha.

volta2001 690 Posted November 25, 2018 I’ve been chasing phantom bear sounds since release. I never know if they’re actually there and good at evading or not there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jabalous 7,209 Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) Mostly ambient, but that's the trick, you cannot tell and it's one powerful thing in the game's sound design. Edited November 25, 2018 by Jabalous Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ash_735 15,194 Posted November 25, 2018 If it's like GTAV, there's a load of distance ambient track/animal sounds that will play depending on the area, you'll have local sounds playing when something is close by but most far off distant things will be the ambient sound banks.

Pretty much. I just remembered Gta V had those loud coyote howls in Sandy Shores every night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mirror Park Resident 6,734 Posted November 26, 2018 Fishing in O'Creighs's Run with bear roars in the background is uncomfy af. The same roars sound when you visit then trapper in Roanoke Ridge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
