Re: I see they still haven't fixed the issue with missing sounds?

@Mini_Minamitsu I've had similar on xbox that definitely needs a fix.

But it appears that the sounds are there on pc, they just don't come out. Probably too much going on in the aural landscape.

Anyway if you are on pc and want to hear footsteps miles off then have a look here.
