Predator laugh emote.

Post by 1138 » 09 Aug 2015, 20:04

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary): In the 1987 film, Predator, (oh fucking boy, story time), we see near in the beginning of the film where a bunch of PMCs are laughing and joking around. Namely, Billy Sole had a rather infectious and audiogenic laughter, which would later go on to be one of the most iconic laughs in film history. Little did they know that a Yautja, specifically, the Jungle Hunter, was watching their prey in the background, observing Dutch's unit interact with each other. In the meantime, the Predator's Vocal Mimicry Biomask function was analyzing the voices of the group.

This would play a rather interesting part near the end of the film, in which Dutch bests the Predator in CQC after the latter killing off all of Dutch's men. As the jungle hunter was defeated in his hunt, he activated his Self-Destruct mechanism of his bracer in order to commit ritualistic suicide... and in hopes of taking Dutch with them. As the sequence activates, the Jungle Hunter laughs maniacally, mimicking the now-eerie laughter of Billy Sole. Thus leading to one of the most memorable scenes of a villain laughing maniacally in their final moments.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole): For additional spookiness, and more fun fluff stuff.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc): Adding two emotes, *plaugh (that being the standard predator laugh) and *hlaugh (a distorted mimickry of a human laugh) to the predator's available emotes.

You hear a disembodied, mocking laughter... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPcGqYGvEoY

You hear a laughter, distorted, but familiar... (use whatever here.)

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it): Uh, no idea. However the devs implemented the alien audible emotes, I guess? Same concept?

I actually made this a thing: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0VXB6 ... sp=sharing

But decided against it because it doesn't feel authentic enough. There's too much "obvious 1987 Predator" in it. It's a great sound, though, and occasionally I'll play it for Preds that might want to use it instead.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoJL2VHhlH8 this video has some good samples of pred laughs we could use methinks .. Like at 1:17 or 1:58. And if those sound too human you could probably easily distort them.

Other than that, there's still a TON of predator noises out there. So many emote w. sound possibilities.

Whoops, I skimmed over this too quickly. I thought you meant having the 1987 laugh emote as the new death sound for Preds.

Giving them emotes to make laughing sounds while still alive sounds pretty cool.

I mean.. Perhaps not use the 87 laugh since that is scary as hell. But ya get what I mean.

I like that laugh. Predators should actually be scary, and not just "I see quite blurry thing, shoot it."

+1 also, give it a large range, sort of how you can hear gunshots from of screen, give it a little range so that people within a reasonable distance can hear it
