Engine sounds

So i started wondering, will the engines sounds vary depending how powerful the engine is? Example: You have I4 1.4lt ohc engine, has about 80bhp and is true ecobox. And then you have this I4 2.0l DOHC almost full race spec engine, aggressive cams etc. Giving 240bhp at wheels, not giving a sh*t about emissions. Will they sound the same?

We’re working with some guys about this at the moment.

We aim to have the engine sound change based on how agressive the cams are, what the cylinder count/crank layout is, exhaust & intake.

Hopefully this will provide a wide range of sounds, we shall see!

Wow, nice! I was thinking about it when i came home from school. And started wondering that it would be a bit stupid to have race spec I4 and sounds like an ecobox. :smiley:

I like the way a fully tuned (level 3 for all components) Nissan 350z sounds on Need for Speed Underground 2 :smiley:

Please good V-8 noises. So far most auto games don’t have a good realistic V-8 noise. On a random aside are we going to pick what kind of exhaust a car has. Dual, single, H or 8 pipe crossover ETC?

Sounds nothing like, here’s how a tuned Nissan 350Z engine should sound…youtube.com/watch?v=e0B-d-pLxiE

I’m entitled to my opinion…

To be honest … The sounds of NFS:U2 is very very generic.

What about visiting our IRC to talk to many car enthusiast?

Yep, even if it’s wrong :laughing: :stuck_out_tongue:

Hopefully we will get a V-8 sound like this

I miss my bassani O/R X pipe and Flowmaster 40s :cry:

That sounds pretty brutal! From what samples I have heard till now I can tell you that the sounds indeed are going to be really good. :slight_smile:

Yeah you should hear that combo at high revs it sounds awesome. I hope so I am getting quite excited for Automation.

2L V16, just case anyone’s daft enough to build one in game :smiley:

That would be me … To put it in a Hatchback and create a world first Hot Hatch. :geek:

I was planning on that too… Although in more of a “cappuccino” style car :stuck_out_tongue:

If you ask me that 2.0L V16 doesn’t sound very pleasant at all.

What do you expect out of 16 little cylinders doing 14krpm?

It sounds like a mix between ripping velcro and someone going nuts on a xylophone

I think it sounds like a battery powered R/C car with a gearbox. Awesome, I actually quite like it. And it’s in another 205, no less!

Edit: At least, I think it’s a 205. It’s 205 shaped… But it does have 106 headlights :confused: Ahh, it’s probably a space frame that just happens to have bits of 205 shell on it, unless it started out life as a real Group-B T16, in which case it’s still a space frame with 205 body panels jammed on it, it was just done by Peugeot themselves :stuck_out_tongue: (although it would be sacrilegious and probably too expensive to chop one up and put a 2 litre V16 in it, however cool it sounds)
