Looks really nice and clean, the recoil is nice. Reloading time perfect :) But the sounds are a little flat!

Holy wow, excellent work Chad! :D

Like Troy said the sounds are a bit flat. ;) Also, maybe the reloading the clips are more to the left instead of the traditional right side reloading. :)

Another thing, the bolt seems a bit too "smooth". It needs to be a bit like this> (skip to 3:25).

We actually based it's sounds off of videos like that as well as the bolt work on my own Enfield rifle :) So believe me it's correct :3

Really worth noting, everything we show is subject to change - sounds, animations, and the lighting/ToD settings that our content is shown in is not at all final :) We just like to show you our progressive development.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the actual sounds per say, but I think there would be some form of echo in an open field like that? I think that's what Troy meant, and Rough agreed on. Though seriously, awesome work, I can tell that using the weapons in TW will be smooth, and comfortable. c:

Yup! Theres no crack/echo in the background. The noise doesn't erm! Last long enough if you understand what I mean.

I see what you mean. I'll beat the sound team extra hard for you :D I'll even use the punishment whip :3

Also another thing to add... these bolt action rifles really need bolt sounds. The cartridges in the stripper clip being added into the magazine, needs some louder sounds also.

I think the video does a good job at it though, it just needs to be louder to add more realism into it. :)

Ok.. the more I thought about it, the animations for this Lee Enfield is superb, :D although still a bit too smooth (needs to be for the soldier to put a little effort into it!) ;)

Only thing I see is: it needs better sounds or at least louder. Example: while loading the Enfield, you can barely hear the cartridges being loaded into the magazine.
Also: cycling the bolt has to have sounds too (or at least louder), if you have played Project Reality and selected the Lee Enfield No1 Mk III*, you will know! :D
