Footstep audio really needs fixing

Audio imo is actually one of the best so far in Apex yet on grand scheme of things it still is bad, dread to see e-district back in rotation (map where you can only guess which level of many enemies are).

Footsteps of teammates for sure has become louder this season, I don't know why, but I get constantly spooked by someone at least a few times per gaming session - spooked because of the combination where you don't hear enemies + louder than expected teammate footsteps.

Otherwise thing that helped me a lot and I am sure every pro player is using = audio equalizers.

This season I combined better EQ settings and new in-ear headphones (vs old over the head closed back ones) and one day some random told that I am hacking as I am calling out sounds like 100+m (in game) further than he can tell, I literary guided him through the map and he was amazed + complimented my IGL skills as well. I did not expect difference to be that big yet I have been playing on some or another EQ since season 12 or so = I literary forgot how bad Apex is without EQ :)

p.s. also I have seen plenty of people who complain about sound while they have legend voice lines on in game (I have those off since my first hour in Apex) and equipped heirloom (which most make additional noise clutter + screen clutter). So if you want easy solution - turn those both off at first :)
