@Kateh8sapex I am not saying there are not issues as I stated I do hear them myself its just not as often as some people do. I am more speaking on terms of hearing enemies come up behind you or beside you. I hear the whoosh from time to time but is it game impacting for me? I will say no. It does make me more alert to think someone has most certainly dropped on me but other than that it does not effect my game-play.
@E9ine_AC Most major streams all agree the audio is bad and non existent. I get that in your experience you don't have any issues but that doesn't account for the majority of players. It's not headsets that are a problem and that's a very poor argument/solution to bring up.
- @chiefthunderball I 100% can agree with this. Some big streamers do claim no audio a lot of times it's when they mess up and want to blame the game for their mistakes. I can hear them on stream how can they not hear them while playing? If I can hear footsteps on someone's stream when they could not what would this indicate? My sound tuning is far superior than they have. I have spent a lot of time perfecting my audio to perform the best it can inside apex. Which im sure they just plug in their device and go about playing. Just because someone has dropped 200 bucks on a set of headphones does not make them good. There is more to it than just inserting a headet and expecting it to work good. There are programs most motherboards and such come with to deal with audio. If they do not tune these then they will have poor hearing abilities.
BTW I do agree there are audio issues inside the game. But some can be diverted by simply adjusting sound settings to be more clear. Headphones I use: HyperX Cloud
PC volume is 100%
Game volume is 100% ( a lot set this at 50 and expect to hear things )
SupremeFX is 100% stereo, Performance Mode,
The format is at 24 bits, 48000 Hz Studio Quality
Sonic Studio basic mode 100% volume Advanced mode 100% volume application manager none. Sonic studio Effects none.
With these settings, I do not have a lot of the audio issues others do. I will note Hyper X is also the best headset I have ever owned in terms of quality and abilities. Also do not break the bank. They actually work and allow me to hear things, unlike these 200 dollar headsets I have tried and do own.
- @E9ine_AC I also do not have much issues. I can hear footsteps just fine. My headset? Oh don't ask. Its an earphone set, or whatever, that I used to plug in my old iPod 4. Its not even a headset at this point. Is it? I don't know.
- @E9ine_AC You are literally a single person out of thousands and thousands that experience issues. What do you think is more likely, that everyone is a cry baby who blames no audio to cover up their mess ups? Or that you have a superiority complex and can't grasp the fact that just because you don't experience it doesn't mean it's not there? No need to reply to me as I won't continue replying to anything you have to say since I don't value your input in the slightest bit. Thanks!
After one of the last patches, I am hearing Octane more often, however overall audio seems to have gotten quieter. Things like healing and holding a knockdown shield out isn't as loud as it used to be. No idea what's even going on here.
