About Visual Sounds Effects
I am a deaf APEX player. My deaf friends are also APEX players. Why can't APEX visualize sound? Why can't APEX add visual sound effects? Indeed, the implementation of visual sound effects may hav...

Thanks for the answer.
It is true that some people with hearing loss play with sound.
But I feel that visual audio effects are too effective for a game like APEX.
It seems to me that the only way to bridge the gap between the deaf and the hearing impaired is to turn off the sound effects.
I wonder what would be the best way...
There is a workaround to improve footstep sounds on pc, outlined in the first post in the below thread: (also on xbox 1S with DTS settings and ps5 with headphones and there are other suggestions in the thread)

The program involved is called Sonic Sonar, it dosnt adjust or change game files, it just makes the best of the aural field available for the game, so it isn't a bannable offence to use it. Much like the color enhancement overlays within nvidia.
With that in mind, somthing like the below that (apparently) does a visual sound overlay with the available sounds might be worth trying to find. I know nothing about this particular product or even if it works effectively.

The main problem with this type of visual overlay though, is the seperation of sounds that have a similar frequency, esp in a br gun fight.
Thanks for the reply.
I read the visualization suggestions above.
Personally, I thought it would be easier to see and understand if you improved on the already existing red indicator that comes up when you are shot by a gun.
My hearing is completely absent, so the method of making the sound louder didn't make sense to me.
I wish there was an overlay that would show the sound....
I wonder if they could develop one somewhere.I would like to deliver this comment to the developer, but I guess I can't.
