@hayhor So the EQ only unlocks with Sony's headset?
On PC you can try using APO Equalizer but I think nothing will help... It's just how this game was designed. You can see artillery strike blowing up in front of you with no obstacles nearby 200 meters away but you will not hear anything. You take one step forward, 199 meters, and you hear everything. Again step back and silence... Game simply cuts audio on some set distance. And balancing audio in fight (to discern footsteps) would require probably doing some complicated audio convolution, recording footsteps, guns, ults, for Pathfinder and other legends, etc...
All you can do is use your eyes, 360 all the time. :D
@AreYouShivering yt reports that he can clearly hear footsteps during a fight with SSS on.
But he does use his eyes too 😃
A success story to report, from another thread
@Midnight9746 wrote:@OldTreeCreeperThanks, I'll try it. Although I personally feel like we shouldn't have to get 3rd party programs just to hear sounds within the game.
Edited: Yup, this fixes the audio issue. I was actually able to hear people run up from behind before they shot at me. Thanks so much!
