New sound design and the (***MANY***) problems it entails.

I do understand where the Devs have been coming from with the new sound design; the old sounds were very all over the place and could confuse the player at times. However, you have absolutely ruined gameplay by implementing this new system. One of the main aspects of an FPS is to be able to hear where you are being shot from or where footsteps are. With this new update, it has completely changed the flow of the game. Instead of being able to listen for targets, you have to guess. While I can understand this use for something like suppressors, with normal guns, it makes absolutely zero sense for me not to hear where I'm being shot from if it's to my right. I should not be having to be shot in the face to be able to tell where said bullet is being shot from because at that point, I can tell that I'm being shot from in front. Devs i am BEGGING you to fix your game, i love battlebit, but this has almost completley ruined the game for me, i can not explain enough how much you guys have messed p with this update. I do however believe it is salvageable you just can not leave the game as is.

Thank you for your time
                                               Your valued and hopeful player: Supreme

Another issue I have faced is sound muffling as I'm being hit, the sound of bullets going past also reduces the volume of the actual gun firing which i am unable to pinpoint, i hope you understand why this is making people annoyed thank you again.

I've been having this same problem, and i didn't know what to do so i joined the discord just to complain about it, because it was such a god awful descision i honestly wonder waht they were thnking when they did it

I don’t think you understand how the sound works as of this patch.
The muffled effect does NOT affect shots aimed at you nor enemy footsteps around you. It dulls everything else specifically so you can have a better sense of where you are being shot from and where the enemy is. Oki said this in the other huge thread on directional sound.

Have you played? Like legitimately, have you played at all. You can't hear jack shit around yu everything is quite the only thing i can hear is my own gun or teammates around me. If i get shot at i have no inkling where it is, footsteps no longer exist because of the way they changed it. Sure that might not have been the intent but it's waht happned

Stop being a dev worshipper and admit there are problems with this amazing game

[fluid flume]

Yeah, I have.
Not being a dev worshipper. Being a hater of fucking dumbasses.
