The Normandy Beach landings were a pivotal moment in World War II that?s been recreated in countless entertainment mediums, including, of course, video games. A recent example was housed in Activision and Sledgehammer Games? 2017 installment into the world?s most popular first-person shooter franchise, though the origins behind some of the Call of Duty: WWII sound effects are quite homemade, utilizing the likes of common household objects.
Recently appearing on a panel at PAX Australia in Melbourne, CoD: WWII audio director David Swenson and lead sound designer Michael Caisley spoke about the strange creative process that went into some of the game?s recordings. Initially, the pair had grand plans to use authentic sound clips from the time they spent preparing audio with the United States Coast Guard, but legal rights issues eventually put a stop to that.
