Because gunfire is loud, especially indoors where the sound bounces off walls and they're trying to yell communication to each other. I'd have a suppressor on every gun if I could
I read that in Europe, they supposedly encourage gun owners to use silencers when shooting in public spaces (e.g. hunting) because otherwise it would be considered rude to disturb other people lol
Oh yeah, the effectiveness of suppressors is greatly exaggerated in movies, but they do significantly lower the volume and recognizability of gunshots. That's the whole benefit haha.
Is it AI, maybe? I'm not sure their badges match and that 3rd cop in back doesn't feel natural to me. I thought it was just bad layering, but it could be AI.
Silencers are a good idea honestly for protecting people's hearing. Contrary to what Hollywood shows, silencers do not actually silence a gun, but rather quiet it.
