How is it I can hear enemy jets halfway across the map but somehow I don’t hear a 60 ton MBT that approaching my location from 50 yards away or closer?
FYI you can hear modern MBT approaching from about 1/2 mile away even in the midst of a firefight. You can physically feel via ground vibration a MBT approaching from around 30 yards away. The engine and tread sounds block out all other sounds.
In 2042 my first hint that an enemy tank is nearby is getting blown to bits by the “stealth” tank from 10 to 20 yards away. That’s in an area I just cleared so the tank had to drive into that area. The same thing happens often with the Condor or Hind.
100% unsat. Situational awareness via in game sounds must give the player proper awareness of their surroundings.
