Synopsis

Exploring the identification of the location of a sound source.

Relationships

Contexts:
 Gameplay File:M385px-Gameplay-front-v20.png, Awareness .
May relate to:
 Beacon Locator , Shout and Yell , Unaware NPC , Suspicious NPC .

Description

Directionality refers to the explorations of sound design that intentionally take advantage of that or even tweak it in some way, to achieve some effect, for instance in terms of the Gameplay.

Beacon Locator is one kind of exploration that may resort to Directionality.

Directionality may be also explored as part of the game Aesthetics, for instance in Ambiance. A wandering fly and passing helicopters are fairly common examples.

[pending: Most] modern 3D game engines implement directionality to some extent.

Examples

Papa Sangre: Practicing the skill of facing a particular direction (only through sound), which is crucial for the Gameplay.
Red Dead Redemption: Following the sound to find a point of interest, in the abscence of visual clues. Directionality has been specifically approached in this game (see External Resources).
Far Cry 2: Here the player promptly finds an unexpected NPC through the Directionality of his inquiring utterances ( while Suspicious NPC).
[show less examples...]
The Path: [SHOW SPOILER]
Killzone 2: In the final battle in Killzone [pending: not exactly "final" – search for its name] [SHOW SPOILER].
Metal Gear Solid 4: Being able to locate the moving bosses through their soundprint is instrumental to defeat major bosses in Metal Gear Solid 4 (BB Corps and Vamp, namelly) [pending: double check this one].
Half-Life 2:
Halo:

In an interview [1], the Audio Director of Red Dead Redemption refers that they "additionally focused on ensuring directionality of enemy gunfire".
