Feedback On My First Gun

Hello…
This is my first post/topic so don’t destroy me please :frowning:

So I made a gun with some basic stuff like aiming, shooting, and reloading. I would like to see your feedback on it. Oh and also… I’m all in for your criticism.

Notes

The gun mesh I used was from a friend. Probably going to make a more detailed one in the future.
The Ammo Gui is (mostly) inspired by Jailbreak’s gun system.
I am aware of the stuttering with the character rotation! Not really sure what causes it though.

  1. Is this a nerf gun? It sounds so, powerless, and there’s very little recoil.
  2. Add an animation for aiming to make the character look like they’re actually aiming.
  3. Maybe make the arms move around so the character doesn’t look super weird while walking around.

I like it, as a start it’s great!

You could:

  • Look into getting better sound effects. A gun is usually quite loud.
  • Make the arm show the kickback, a gun doesn’t just lift up, the arm would be swung backward in a sort of arc.
  • If you’re being real creative try adding particle effects to the barrel and a beam that aims at the hit position.

About the first, nope, it is not a nerf gun. Sound isn’t really something I’m good at so that was pretty much the best I could do (might try to improve it though). You are definitely right about the recoil too.
About the 2nd, I’m trash at animation, but I will try to get it to look better.
About the 3rd, definitely going to make the arms move.

Seriously, I really appreciate the feedback!

Look into getting better sound effects. A gun is usually quite loud.

The sound effects was literally me tapping my laptop. All I did was throw it into Audition and change the pitch and reverb. So yeah… I need to figure out what to do with that lol

Make the arm show the kickback, a gun doesn’t just lift up, the arm would be swung backward in a sort of arc.

Will try to do that for sure.

If you’re being real creative try adding particle effects to the barrel and a beam that aims at the hit position.

I’m not much into particles, but I’ll try it out!

Thanks for the feedback!

Try adding some recoil and also the shoot sound doesn’t sound like a shoot sound try making the sound a little more loud or bangy!

There is recoil… but it’s kind of unnoticeable lol
I’ll add more recoil and for the shooting sound-
I’ll try to work on that. Sound… is a pain for some people lol

Great make sure to notify me when I can see your new gun!
I’ll be there to check it out.

Hello! Since other replies suggest increasing sound and you say you’re using home sounds, I would use a stapler and pull the top up then let go. (PLEASE DON’T PUT YOUR HAND THERE! PLEASE DON’T!). Then change the volume in a sound editing software to be much louder. It creates a nice reloading animation. But PLEASE DON’T HURT YOURSELF WHILE DOING THIS.

Will try this! Thanks for the feedback!

Just make sure you don’t hurt yourself and don’t keep your hand inside the stapler where it could hurt you.
