Codriver pace note volume is too low

The copilot volume is too low at version 2.2.1, the when all audio setting is set as default the copilot voice is barely there, the voice is covered mostly by the engine.

  • Can confirm, before update i set Codriver at 80%, now set to 100% and dont understand him. PC with 5.1 sound system, Audio setting is dolby atmos 

  • Same here. Stop playing the game because of this. Till a hotfix comes hopefully the game is on ice for me. Can't enjoy the new DLC.

    Hello,

    Sorry to hear that the Co-pilot voice is too low following the latest update.

    May I ask, what platform are you playing on and what voice did you select ? (English #1, #2, or another language)

    We've passed on the issue to the team.

    I play on PS5 and have tried english#1 and english#2.  I have to turn down all other sound to 50 to be able to hear the co-pilot correctly, but then i loose most of the engine sound wich makes the game worth 0.

    There should be plenty of adjustability in the Audio settings menu. 
    Make sure you're on the correct Mastering setting. 
    Turn Master Vol down to around 60-70. 
    Leave Co-driver at 100. 
    Set your output device (TV, stereo, headphones, etc.) to about how loud you want the co-driver to be while you're playing. In other words, the volume that you typically play at (while keeping the Master vol at 60-70). 
    With your Effects, Engine, and Surfaces vol starting at 50, begin boosting (or cutting) each of those settings (one at a time) until you get a mix that you're happy with. For example: Boost the engine (do this one first if it's most important) sound up to a point where you're happy with it in relation to the co-driver. Do the same for Effects and Surfaces. In most cases those will likely be the same values (or nearly) as where you ended up with your engine sound. 
    Once you have a mix that you're happy with turn the Master Vol back up to 100. 
    You might want to lower the volume on your output device a good amount before turning the Master Vol back up, as it has the potential to increase the overall volume dramatically, and you don't want to blow your ears/speakers out or scare the dog. 
    Adjust your TV/headphones/whatev back to where you want and hopefully you're off and running. 

    Hope this helps make the game worth more than 0.
