Does the railgun make more noise than other tikhar attachments?

[MartensoftWorld]

Title - it seems to make a lot more noise. Does this actually mean anything or is it still treated as a silenced weapon?

I hate seeing posts with zero replies! I can't help with your question, directly... heck, I didn't even know this gun existed, let alone the attachments. I'm hoping it's in the train, as I read elsewhere. I should have it by now, apparently.

Anyway, since I don't have it, I'd say that your best bet is to use it and watch/listen for enemy responses. If you shoot an enemy out of sight of the rest of them and they don't comment or alter their patrols any more than they would with the other version, the gun with that mod is as silent to the enemy as the original.

Bear in mind that the enemies are not responding to what you hear through your speakers/headphones. They are responding to something that the game engine says they should hear. The recordings for voices and sound effects are done separately. It could simply be that the guys who recorded this sound effect got the recording levels wrong!

Well I've heard that the noise you hear for each weapon is supposed to be realistic to what you'd actually hear as the user, aka recorded from behind the weapon as it fires. The claim is the CO2 of the tikhair fires back at you, and not towards the enemy. Making it still silent technically. The railgun upgrade is a very late game item.

Pretty sure the railgun is not considered silenced at all.

"Unlike the Tihar, the Hellbreath is not a suppressed weapon, avoid using it in stealth situations if wanting to remain undetected."

Weird that it's not stated. Yet I can't tell if the definition on the wiki actually includes the exodus variant, seeing as it is a modification of an existing weapon that is treated as stealth.

I'm saying the implication is that the separate model of the hellbreath from the original metro games is the one most of the article describes, but I'll take the word on it being louder still. I assume new game plus would let you have the weapon on you if you ended your last save with it?

Yep, but i'd recommend starting the NG+ with Steam in offline mode. The local & cloud files tend to conflict and cause you to get just mask, vest, and gauntlet upgrades, but none of your previous weapons or attachments.

But i just playing NG+ with My Weapon, starting in Volga i wiped out every mutant with Railgun, remain me undetected. Maybe, in Metro Exodus Railgun still considered as a Tikhar (silent weapon). Also, when you selected Railgun, there is no hint about being loud or something. I don't know if it's just me
