#Revisit Default Microphone Settings

Hello,
Although playing for the past half year, only in the past month did I learn that, by default, the microphone volume setting is setting incredibly low. This results in players attempting to use their microphone yet being unheard.
While not every individual will have the same volume output, the Max level (500) results in a normal, audible experience.

To note, the default setting is so low, most players are completely unaware - it feeds into the issue of minimal mic usage during play sessions. I have reached a point where I will even send out a server wide text denoting this on regular basis.
If you would, please revisit this default setting as it directly impacts the communication & teamwork an audience of BBR players seek.

No wonder people can’t hear me when in other games it’s fine.

i have my mic volume at 500 (max) but i'm barely audible while talking (yk, the important part)
only shouting or death insert exclamation for pain get through (funny but generally unimportant)

Be nice if the audio level was adjusted automatically like a Zoom meeting. There are people in bbr all the time who are super loud and the next person you can't even hear. Without a signal meter, there's no way to get an accurate level so just take away the option and make everyone the same volume out of the box.
