About sound… (hijacking your post here a little) :slight_smile:
When I think about it, I can’t recall hearing footsteps…is it not on or are they very quiet or is there so much other sound going on (like gunfire from the other side of the map) that I can’t hear them?

I think the other sounds going on mask them. I notice I can hear them a lot better when the server is only half full.

You can hear them but they’re quite hard to heard. Definately as already mentioned when the server is completely full and bullets / grenades flying everywhere. It’s something that indeed needs to get improved in my opinion because I can’t recall which position my opponent is running to or coming from 50% of the time.

I agree that the footsteps need to be louder.

Surround sound and individual volume sliders, yes please. :smiley:

don’t care about surround, need EQ, missing top end in my hearing

There is tons of free software to equalize your sound in Windows. I’m way more looking forward to surround sound. I need it to detect my enemies correctly

I got lots of audio software, most is very hard to integrate with game audio

I use integrated audio, not separate audio card on gaming/home confuser

lots of people play on flaptops, they’ll need it as well

I would also like surround sound (because DB (Unreal) can do it!)
and something cant be missing in a modern game!

surround sound please.

Yes. I would like proper 5.1. That’s the least we should aim for.

Gameplay audio is getting some attention very soon.
