#Footstep audio bugged?

This is my first game since the update that just happened and the footstep audio is like going in and out, there are spots where very clearly you should be able to hear footsteps and just aren't. In the first clip you dont even hear the killer drop, let alone his footsteps.

Has happened in every game so far, not just this one

+1 Something broke with the update indeed. Was distantly chased, started to walk to lose it, stopped hearing his footsteps making me think he's no longer on me and then is just turning around the corner behind me with absolutely no footstep audio. He wasn't like invis slow walking - just full on speeding after me this whole time.

#

Then I've played dead in the middle of the circus to test and saw him walking around with footsteps absolutely absent in certain areas despite him being in my los like 10 meters away

Its not new, I have been complaining of that two patches or more ago. Like killer litearlly sneak behind me and grab me, I know he was not stutter steping. Audio is messed. You can hear bunny steps one floor away but youc ant hear killer feet away.

I’ve never had it happen before the update and I have 200+ hours

More footsteps missing

Im more and more convinced that this is intended. Audio worked fine and suddenly its not, and they are not adressing it. So stupid that the monster can sneak.

same, it feels like an intentional technique magicians are using cause it happens so often when they go invisible

like a fourth of my games today I've had killers who pop invis within my sightline and then suddenly appear super close to me with absolutely no audio cues

ornate nymph
#

so he may be silent but is slow

#

or you'd hear loud footsteps if he's actually walking

#

I didnt know its to be expected lol, I didnt even know that was possible beforehan

#

like now I know to look out for it and how they do it purely through someone explaining it

ornate nymph
#

we're talking here about magician actually having no footsteps while running at full speed not even invis

onyx crane
#

I thought that was a part of it, I was simply explaining how I noticed it more when they went invis

ornate nymph
#

right well now you know

#

It didnt seem obvious that they were two seperate things for the killer to suddenly have silent footsteps, because Ive also seen it when they were walking normally

ornate nymph
#

though I wish they'd make it also impossible to abuse that inching little by little to not cause noise

#

cause for example bunnies aren't able to do that while sprinting

#

they'll make a footstep sound much more likely if try to spam it like this
