Nope, there was no major sound rebalancing :o

Hmm. Me and others have definitely agreed the sounds are more punchy. We will have to do some back to back comparisons and see for sure.

I don’t have 1.6 access but I will try and nag someone who does into recording a demo so I can compare to 1.5.

Very strange, pretty much every streamer I watched at some point mentioned “oh man the guns/soundscape sound way better”

I mean, we can always just prescribe it to be being divine intervention and move on with our lives :D

Haha, I just watched a bit through @keen forum 's campaign gameplay, he said the same as well - I guess if stuff looks/feels nicer your brain assumes it must sound better, too :D

"Yes—your perception of sound can genuinely change when you’re overjoyed or excited. This isn’t just in your head: strong emotional states can influence how your brain and body process sensory information. Here are a few ways this can happen:

  1. Heightened Sensory Processing

Excitement activates your sympathetic nervous system (the “fight-or-flight” response), which can sharpen your senses.

Your brain releases dopamine and adrenaline, making auditory neurons more responsive. Sounds can seem clearer, louder, or more detailed.

  1. Changes in Attention and Focus

When you’re overjoyed, your attention may broaden—you notice details you’d normally ignore, including subtle background noises.

Alternatively, you might focus so much on a joyful moment that unrelated sounds fade into the background"

Yeah, sound is one of those things where believing it's different will let you actually hear the difference :D
It's a common meme in sound design/audio mixing that you tweak an effect for half an hour to get it JUST right... only to realize it's been bypassed the whole time. 😁

ACTUALLY!!! @worn plover is there any word about the Soviet AI commander getting an accurate voice in 1.6? It threw me off big time hearing him with an American Accent. 😂
