Audio Quality is Terrible!

MEA is obviously less polished then ME3 and the audio quality is no different and is really hurting the game. It causes the gameplay to feel less satisfying and it could be a reason for the complaints about guns feeling underpowered, when in reality, they may not be.

Issues are, but not limited to, everything sounds very similar in terms of volume and frequency, to 'blood' and hit-marker sounds being far too quiet (thus far less satisfying firing at enemies).

I do hope the devs acknowledge this, and patch it quickly.

EDIT: To clarify, I am referring to the audio quality in multiplayer; although it is very likely a similar experience in single player as well.

  • With all of the other issues, I'd rather they wait a few months before sorting out the wonky sound. I do agree at times it sounds very low fi, and the due to character movements and camera angles you often can't hear or see 1 or more people involved in the conversation. A minor annoyance compared to many of the other issues noted in this forum.

    I have personally not experienced any other issues so far. But do find the audio quality is really bringing down my enjoyment of this game. To clarify, I am referring to the audio quality in multiplayer; although it is very likely a similar experience in single player as well.

  • This is actually my only issue with the game as well.  I can handle small glitches, but the audio quality even effects my music when I start the game.  It kills the experience for me.
