Apex season 10 enemy footsteps worse than ever!

I don't know if its just me, however...since season 10 started and more so after the 1.77 update - enemy footsteps are basically non-existent. I played for a total of almost 6 hrs today and almost every time I died it was from a direct result of absolutely NO enemy sound. 

I was using Rev, and crouch walking on top of a roof when two enemies ziplined up to the top where I was with no sound and then sprinted right through my character's body. It was then that I realize there was enemies near me. Even they were shocked to see me there. Of course both just dummied me right there on the spot. 

Another time My teammate downed and eliminated an enemy and while he was I was silently crouch walking trying to keep aware of his partner possibly coming to assist his teammate, concentrating on sound while my partner was looting his death box.... the enemy partner jumped down a shaft from about 5 stories up....landed about one foot behind me without a single sound and knocked me. 

Its ridiculous at this point. A fire fight shouldn't be determined by the lack of sound. In a BR where sound dictates many factors of game play, how does one continue to play without? 

Maybe instead of hiring guys to work on new legends for every season - I mean we have 18 now to chose from....or hiring someone to work for a year on reworking a little bit of Worlds Edge Map ending in good ole Sorting Factory turned into a disgusting area of broken sound and useless terrain to fight in - why not hire someone to work on fixing the sound engine and the constant problems around sound issues that have been plaguing the game since season 2. Every time Respawn makes a new season and character and map changes....the enemy footsteps and general game sound becomes worse and worse. 

Apex might as well be Call Of Duty at this point. 

Seriously, start working on the things that matter. Instead of the things that make you more money. Even you guys should stand behind your game despite the profits. Have some integrity, and put the skin kits, and bundles and crap aside for one season and fix the serious sound issues. Your fan base has been complaining about this for a couple years now. Yet every season the enemy footsteps become worse and worse. By why does my teammates footsteps work fine constantly. I don't need to hear my teammates footsteps! If it makes it easier just remove teammate footsteps and focus more on enemy ones! Please! Do something!
