Apex footstep audio tuned down???
A few patches ago i found out that the footsteps of enemies have been tuned down by a lot , enemies that are running within 5m of me can't even be heard at all. Like the sounds of environment objects...

@HindeanODB Alright thx mate, I'm really disappointed now because i have to keep playing the game with this stressful bug, unfortunately yeah it's up to the devs now to fix this and i doubt it's going to happen soon enough :'( im really disappointed yeah
- @CubertZ there was a patch tonite on pc, i can hear audio again, played about 4 games heard everyone around me. not sure if the patch was the key but the people i play with can also hear sounds better.
- @HindeanODB im on pc too, i installed the patch and even reinstalled the game but not fixed, anyway enjoy your game bro ☹️
OK guys so after a while of messing up my audio settings and audio drivers I figured out a solution thus idk if this would work out for everyone.
I'm pretty sure apex's audio doesn't function correctly with some audio drivers cuz it was fine before and got this problem after season 6 update so it's probably coding related or whatever but anyways here's what I did:
Right click on "This PC" in desktop --> "Proprieties" then in the top left corner click "Device Manager" and click the down arrow for "Audio inputs and outputs" and then right click on whatever output audio driver you're using and choose "Update Driver" then choose "Browse my computer for driver Software" and then choose "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer" and then choose "Generic Software device" and then click "Next" and you're done.
If you don't have "Generic Software device" as an option try whatever option and keep trying different options every time for different drivers and see if it works! I'm so glad i got it fixed and gl everyone!
