Audio for the A-164 Wipeout's gau-8 needs reworking.
Acknowledged, WishlistPublic

Description

As of now, the audio for the gau-8 gun used by the Wipeout (and any mods including an A-10 warthog) sounds, in my honest opinion, pathetic. For what is possibly the most iconic sound on any modern battlefield, (or should be at least) the gau-8 is reduced to an underwhelming hum which can sometimes be drowned out by even the ambient environmental noises.

What should sound like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrhoYnpgm-g or https://youtu.be/_yMXTEowRpA?t=6m4s

Only sounds like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MDY2KuEzgq8

Additional Information

I mean no disrespect. (he says as he's being just that) But I just cannot help but to always smile every time I hear a rifle or other weapons being fired which have benefited from the fairly recent audio overhaul. For many people, myself included, we would see proper gau-8 audio/effects as a crowning achievement all to itself.

Although I realize how difficult it might be to find the people who would allow some audio recording.

This is more or less the equivalent of a post-it note stuck somewhere as a reminder with those considerations in mind.

I think its only the sound itself because the delay and the new sound system already work. Would be the most terrifying sound of all arma series.
