In search for the most silent Gun/supressor setup

[ScareCrow]

I have a medical condition in my left ear, its called tinnitus, and it gets agrevated by gun shots, this makes my tinitus in that ear to become 10 times worse for a whole day, and then it gets better but this makes my gaming alittle challenging, this means i cannot use guns that makes alot of noise, I am currently using a pistol m1911 with a supressor but this is till not quiet enough, I understand that guns wont become completely silent when using a supressor, but this makes it harder for me to be able to play without upsetting my ear/tinnitus, so my question is what options do I have, except using bows or crossbows only? is there a better gun for me or can I adjust some files to make guns more silent? Please I really enjoy the game but this ear issue is really killing me

The M1911 is .45 ACP, you can also find the UMP45 in the same caliber. For the best noise suppression that's it really. Other calibers in the game are the typical 5.56, 7.62, 5.45, etc.

hi! i find that an MP5 with the supressor is good, any gun that uses 9mm is significantly more quiet than other guns, also guns that run .22 caliber bullets will be more quiet. :) i think the devs have made this game realistic with the sounds of the guns. :) hope this helped. :) anything bigger than the 9mm and .22 caliber will create bigger noise unless its subsonic ammo. VSS and other that look alike the VSS will be using 9x39mm i think, thats subsonic, built in supressor, thats also quiet. :)

The sound in this game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥, a lot of things are too loud.

I have a same condition in my right ear. I try to run with the bow as much as possible, but indeed a 9mm is somewhat silent then others. I find the mp5 silenced olso good option if you have or find one. My condition is somehat diverent but the same aplies that gunshots and explosions irritates for 3 days wihh me and I get a strange 'whzzzzz" untill it gets better.
It's the war I'm a vet with 3 tours and during that time things happened to me olso metntaly andnot only physcily. But thats just a side note.

Sorry but .45 is subsonic by nature, I own a FNX45 with an Osprey silencer and any .45 ammo is QUIET. 9mm is a supersonic ammo, in the VSS the gun is close to being 50% suppressor and 50% gun. They could maybe bring a .300 Blackout gun in the game, those are 7.62 but also subsonic.
Edit: I mean all this is in real life from real guns, not the stuff the devs put in the game if they have no real experience with guns.

I feel you man, I think most game developers ignores that people have ear conditions that suffer if exposed to loud sounds like gun shots, I hope maybe some will start to understand this and give options in the settings for softening sounds like gunshots or other triggers :)

thank you for answering my thread I'm running game with low sound overall now, and still look for guns that are silent, I also use bow alot never tried crossbows yet

I am guessing you are from the US? If so thank you for your service, and did you get on that earplug lawsuit? You might get some compensation out of it if your condition is documented. Just my 2 cents.

You could try to build the improvised crossbow, it takes common stuff to build and it is an insta-headshot kill on puppets (don't forget an improvised quiver). It is the only weapon I build when I start a character and I usually keep it way late until I find a very good gun.

But thanks to medical support who went with us during the tours. They are the ones who are the heroes and needs the medals! I threw mine in the water!! ✌️

I just tried the improvised crossbow and thats a winner for sure! ty for making me try that its not as effective as a pistol though but its a nice workaround.

The leaders who runs your country are liers and thieves. And NO you never have to do anything for your country, unless you know what to fight for and if that is justified in good manner!! I know now it's not, we lost manny men and woman through lies and political profiteers!!! In eu it's not much diverent though. ✌️

Vinterez or AS Val IN 9.39mm is what you need, that thing is super quiet and suppressed as standard. One of the best guns in the game tbh.
