It's impossible to play with this audio.
I literally can't hear my own footsteps because my Horizon teammate makes a constant loud cargo bot sound, while music starts playing in the background. How i am supposed to play decently? What is ...

I'll be honest & say as things are in the game i will most likely uninstall Apex on all my consoles (PS5,PS4 & Xbox One) in the next week or two & will never play the game again as I don't believe anything will change, nothing will fundamentally improve & unresolved issues will remain unresolved.What was probably the best online multiplayer game several seasons ago is merely just another game now.Time has shown Respawn devs have only responded to issues in the game when pro players & youtubers complain about it enough on social media but everyone else gets ignored.Trello/Apextracker has often shown that regarding problems in the game more 'investigations' are made than at the FBI (but with fewer results). No resolutions just investigations & too many false promises have lowered my game expectations lower than a seal's arse.The only thing I'll miss about the game are Revenant's quips.
@Redmattgame dude do you know any perfect FPS game? I don't :D
Same thing has been happening for decades. Only difference back in the days you paid a bit for a meh game and played it till Quake came out for free.
Now Apex and others just do the same + microtransactions to earn billions faster and focus their attention to skins and badges to feed brainless people like you see here upvoting topics related to badges, stats, skins etc...
That's just the evolution of FPS players 🙂 developers just do what people are buying 😉

In that game by sound you know where is the enemy, how many, what are they, what are they doing or what direction are they going.
- @devel_origin sure, then why you are here complaining but not playing perfect game :D
Each game always have had and will have their pros, * and people preferences.
Some teams in development will have better skills, access to visuals, some to audio, some to code efficiency aspects of the game. But so far there is no perfect game.
Plus as said before this is part of the competition - rules are the same, game is the same as long as it is broken in the same way for everyone it should still be competitive = in this case who can shoot enemy better with imperfect sound.
p.s. I played Quake 3 insta gib mode with Noghost = you not only could but had to pre-aim enemies based on the sound and you could do that easily. Basically gameplay looked like you are wall-hacking all the time. Audio was good, gameplay was even faster phase than Apex. Maps were great in my opionion... yet the community died, because people grew up, new players were more inclided to flashy badges, stats and more nicer graphics that were not present in Quake => game died more or less. No perfect game 🙂

And I don't play Apex, just looking around what people say so maybe I'll play later.

That's just the evolution of FPS players 🙂 developers just do what people are buying 😉As a gamer for over 30 years who has had pretty much every console through the generations since the original NES in the late 80's in all that time with hand-on-heart I don't believe there has ever been the perfect 10/10 rated game or ever will be .Perfection would mean without fault & no game is faultless no matter how good they are.And whilst many of my favourite games are pretty close like; Zelda;Ocarina of Time,Mario Kart,Goldeneye,GTA San Andres,Half-Life,Resident Evil etc (to name a few) they do have their faults.
As for the perfect FPS (3rd person included) or rather my favourite ones is tricky because most of them are primarily single/solo player games like the Wolfenstein remakes, Doom, Half-Life,Bioshock,Far Cry,Borderlands,COD Modern Warfare etc.But in reality would any of these games have the ability to transcend over into multiplayer with the same impact I kind of doubt it.As for my favourite multiplayers it would be;Overwatch,Titanfall,Apex (seasons 2-5) etc.
As you have rightly commented game devs on games like Apex,Fortnite etc just seem more focused on the micro-transactions of skins & various cosmetics than with the game fundamentals which is a shame.
- @Redmattgame Yeah, sadly because it’s a Free2Play game, whatever keeps revenue coming in takes priority. Without money coming in, they wouldn’t be able to provide updates/fixes, or release new characters/seasons.
@SILVERisSORRYAgree but as for the cost for some of these cosmetics (across all these microtransaction infested games) the saying 'daylight robbery' comes to mind.'A fool & their money are easily parted' is another.
- @Redmattgame based on the official figures as well as many people who spend their money on Apex it is clear - this community mainly consists of people like that (ones who take nicer skins over better audio) vs. actually competitive gamers (who in my opinion here are usually called toxic, because you dare to comment on how the skin people bought is standing out on the map-making them easy target or provide any other constructive feedback. How dare you, you don't even have a battle pass or 4k / 20 bomb badge you peasant! :D )
- @Eshshshss Well said & it's the toxicity of players that only has me now using a headset with gamer friends but using a headset whilst playing with strangers is a no-no for me.I've always been a confrontational type person & it's always been one of my main flaws unfortunately so using them is like waving a red rag to a bull at times when baited. I'll talk the talk & I'll walk the walk but I'm not a young whipper-snapper anymore & have to keep reminding myself of that & I should just be content with a quiet life instead of offering to travel halfway round the world to sort out some nobody who wants to insult my mum or another family member (it's happened a few times in the past) because I'm unable to heal them at the present time in the game which is stupid I know but more often than not I've often risen to the bait (& probably made myself look an idiot in the process)
They say that social media is a sewer that attracts the worst in people but online gaming is the same unfortunately.Besides for all the faults with Apex it does have the best ping system where a headset isn't really needed.
(I'm off to my quiet room now for some Tai-Chi & meditation for some calm). The sound in this game is a bad joke. I made a thread about how the "sound guy" at respawn should be fired for this mind bogglingly bad audio in this game, and i got threatened with a ban from EA.
I guess they are too busy thinking up new social justice antifa badges for their virtue signaling when they should be fixing these long standing issues.
