God I love the more sharp and crystallized sound with Symmetra’s projector And the fact that both her primary and secondary now actually fits with the character thematic Primary now actually looks more like welding lasers rather than electric currents, same goes for secondary…the gun itself construct a crystallized ball rather than charging up energy plasma orb

I actually %100 disagree. Sombras weapon is an Mp7, and although not all of them have the exact same sound, one thing for sure is ow1 gun sounds like an uzi or a gun of a much smaller caliber. Mp7s are a bigger gun especially in one hand. I like the new sound so much better, it sounds like each shot is heard and not being muffled into this sporadic spray. Also the location of the map changes the sound of the gun ever so slightly. If your in a open space liek this video, it loses a bit of bass and lower tones, but in close environments and caves you can hear more low tones. This also compliments sombras gun better too

4:55 I was today years old when discovered that Orisa's circle thingy rotates as she fires in OW1, but sadly it was removed for some reason in OW 2. Also, keep in mind that Zarya's weapon sound changes the more charged it is. It's not the same sound when you're at 0 energy as when you're at 100. Although I don't think it is that much different in OW2. Cool video. We appreciate the effort.

I still remember hearing the new sounds when the first beta dropped. Every weapon sounded so satisfying; that’s not to say the Overwatch 1 weapons didn’t, but there’s a certain feeling of power and impact from the Overwatch 2 weapons that just adds so much to the experience of shooting. In FPS games, guns should feel cool because they sound cool, and OW2 excels at that.

Sounds are good, but I love the sounds of callouts on 2 specific characters people call out on and they don’t say it correctly. Soldier 76 and Sojourn. It’s funny because I see bunch of Overwatch players say them accidentally in reverse on which character is who on the enemy team 😂

I like both version. The real diffrence for me is better 3d behavior for this sounds in ow2.

The new sounds are mixed much wider. Feels more polished if you ask me.

I feel it would've been better of you made sure the reloads with variable pitch like D.VA's reload or Junkrat's bomb explosion remained the same (could just keep retaking clip until the pitch is the same unless it's completely random but I'm pretty sure there is only a preset amount of pitch sounds).

Widowmakers new sounds really sound DEADLY. Like jesus

Wow I never even realized the sounds changed..

Yo I just realized old Pharah has the same sound as Reaper with slightly more added

OW2 sound design team absolutely killing it as usual

The reaper one made me realize you’re looking up

fun fact: the torbjorn animation bug is still there in the game, the gun moves while his arm doesn't

The new ones feel heavier and with more impact, i like it Probably cause i never played or heard of the game before overwatch 2

Took me a midnight to realize this isnt a blue screen but the sky

Bassy sounds might sound better as a spectator but they're worse for feedback while playing. You want crisp, not muddled. This is why gaming headphones artificially reduce bass.

So basically they just added bass to everything

Hitscan weapons feel so weak in this game but sound so powerful.

D.VA's weapon ( the pistol) sound is satisfying for both OW1&2. Wish OW1 was back. Wish it was named "Overwatch 1 Month" in july so we have back OW1 and when OW1 month is done, everyone can be back to playing OW2!

Those that have been changed all sounds much nicer

OW: _Firecrackers_ OW2: *B A S S*

Only one I dislike is Junkrat's explosion sound. First one sounds like an egg timer, second sounds like an egg timer that was dropped in water.

I wish they had a settings to change the sound :(

Imma be frank, I can't stand the sounds from most of the ar's and smg's. Like Soldier, Sojourn, Sombra, Widow, and Hammond. They sound so... Cartoony? You know how Bastion's lego gun sounds? That's how they all sound to me. They sound like toys and it's just not a nice sound to me lol
