Hoodlum Priest Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 I know Barkin already brought this up and the devs didnt care.....but honestly, do you guys play the game? The sound quality might be clearer but its multidirectional. People across the steet and inside a house sound like theyre inside your head, like theyre in your TS and you cant tell where they are at. Ive had people initiate on people that were 50 meters away and they sound like theyre in my ear. Clearer doesnt mean better. Link to comment
Sgt_kupcake Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Get better headphones I like it. Link to comment
HunterB Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Bohemia updated the sound, not the devs. And the sound still fades as you get further away. Not sure if same distance than before. Link to comment

No never played the game in my life. Guess you don't remember me talking to you and Leroy about the exchange and then once the issue was fixed proceeded to play with you and Leroy for 20-40 minutes as we flew around in a helicopter.

I obviously don't know what your sound setup/settings are but i can clearly figure out direction & distance from testing in game. the ONLY thing Azeh changed was the bandwidth for audio so sound quality is better. Idk wtf ur talking about when it comes to the bottom sentance. Nothing changed other than quality. Its 2022 and asylum finally sounds better than a 2012 Xbox 360 cod lobby. Get over it, i dont understand how you guys can advocate for worse sound quality. Akula, HunterB, Guilt and 7 others like this Link to comment

I like the new quality, but he’s not wrong, you can hear people from the other side of kavala square like they’re right next to you, like the voip distance is longer now. Link to comment

Azeh Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 I tested it on server 2 a long time ago and you could definitely hear people from further away. Just felt like changing it on server 1 for increased quality and to see people's reactions. Haven't tested other values, but there are multiple to choose from. Will try something else next restart. 王 rando 王 and Bob Danaloo like this Link to comment

I really like the higher quality just the distance thing is weird but I can learn to live with it Link to comment

Vhantom Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 The new audio quality is sexy. You can also hear people talking from a vehicle in direct chat now too which is nice. HunterB and Bob Danaloo like this Link to comment

Get over it, i dont understand how you guys can advocate for worse sound quality. LOL, I was being facetious, chill. Clearer doesnt mean better at the expense of playability. The voice audio is critical when determining direction and distance. I have Astro A40s with the Mixamp Pro and have tried everything to make the sound more directional. But if Bohemia changed it I guess there isnt much you can do. Link to comment
Jacknelli Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 Sound quality is better by far. Just hard to get used to matching it with a direction NSEW. Especially being used to the old voice settings for so long; main point being I used to know exactly where someone was speaking from when being initiated on. Link to comment

Idk wtf ur talking about when it comes to the bottom sentance. Nothing changed other than quality. changing the voice codec changes how VOIP is transferred. I believe once the setting is past 10 or 20 the VOIP becomes 2D instead of 3D. This is why it sounds like they're in the same TS channel as you. As well as this is the reason as why you cannot differentiate where it is coming from. The voice attenuation also completely fails the second you set vonCodec = 1 you will be able to hear voices from up to 80m away. Been around since the addition of this. simple fix, remove it.

Gen. Henry Arnold Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Could hear people talk across the street, further than that I wasn't able to, and directional sound works, stop playing with dollar store earbuds Link to comment
Patato Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Azeh has recently tweaked the settings again. Im going to leave this open for feedback. Link to comment
