Gunshot audio too loud

[Foxjade14]

I really hope this isn't intentional, but the gunshots are too loud. Yeah yeah realism, but I don't want actual hearing loss. Trying to balance the audio either blows out my ears to comfortably hear the AI or the AI might as well be mouthing words if I lower it so the gunshots are bearable? Any ways around this?

That's the point, loud noises are supposed to interfere with communication, that's why you establish standard operating procedures (SOP) to reduce the need for verbal communication when ♥♥♥♥ hits the fan.

The whole "It'S ReALliSTiC!!" point is bulls-. You know the operators are wearing hearingprotection? The ones that muffle sounds that are too loud for human hearing without affecting quieter sound like voices.

Also FYI: You should know when something's wrong when reloading your weapon is louder than the SWAT officers yelling at a suspect to put their hands-up.

Have you shot a center fire rifle indoors? If you have, you'd know that even with hearing pro, you are still within a damaging threshold.

Gunshots are 140db+, hearing pro at BEST reduce the noise level by 30db. And the ones that muffle loud noises and allow quiet ones through, usually aren't that good - they're normally 24 or 26db

That's still at least 110db to the dome. Your ears are ringing after that. Believe me.

That argument is null and void.

A slider maybe good for people who want them quieter. But the default should keep them loud, because it's a refreshing change.

Let's just agree on this part, more options never hurt anybody. Or the opposite: give a seperate slider for voices and enviromental sound. In either solutions everyone gets what they want.

OP is correct
The gunshots are overwhelmingly louder that the rest of the games audio.
Playing with headphones I can barely hear people speaking, but I can't increase the volume, because of the obnoxiously loud gunshots.
'but mah realizm'

This is a game. Not real life. Audio needs work.

Game not real life? with that logic they should have laser guns and energy shields. Audio is perfect as is. You want a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ experience with guns that sound like staplers? adjust your audio device settings and stop ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ crying "gUnZ iZ ToO LoUdZ"

You know what I think you're right, however, it's not realistic enough. There should be a 1 life policy to maximize realism, you die, you get locked out of the game.

Gunshots are loud.....very loud.....game represents that very realistic. use suppressors if it bothers you. that will lower the volume a little bit.....

Lol the gun shots would be A LOT louder irl. That;s nothing.

LMAO, these people.

First of all, it is you who look dumb with your "gUnS aRe LoUd It Is ReAlIsTiC". All of you fail to understand, that SWAT members use headphones with active noise reduction and comms.

Second of all even indoors active protection does its job.

I've shot hundreds of rounds with AK, all of them indoors, in a concrete bunker. Concrete, not wooden and full of furniture like in hotels, meth houses etc. After every shot you feel reverb in your stomach straight for a second due to sound ricocheting all over the place and hitting you again and again. But active protection does its job. Shot sounds don't hurt my hearing and I'm 100% sure, that if I had comms inside my headphones I would be able to hear them crystal clear.

Even if you had the same experience as me, but still were deafened thats probably because you used leased cheap headphones, which are so wonky, that they barely touch your ears.

Thank you, a lot people hear I don't think have used any sort of ANC earpro as that cancels the gunshots very well while still allowing you to hear everything else especially your teammates who in this case would be on their own internal comms. Honestly I get the devs thought process of wanting it to be realistic and all but gunshots wouldn't be this loud with ANC, I think they should just a slider exclusively for the gunshots and then it would literally appease everyone.

be a chad, get tinnitus

Gunshots sound perfect, go to the shooting range, try it out ;P

[Black kaiser]

[Gopniky]

Wear earplugs under your headphones.

maybe turn the gun shot audio down lol i am sure that is an option

[Shrimpy]

hmm so I use Steelseries Arctis 7's, and have yet to encounter anything that seems unusually loud. Even with everything cranked up, because I do have Tinnitus from working under fighter jets for years. Footsteps, shouting, gunshots, doors opening..everything sounds proportionate depending on the direction your facing.

[JXLVII]

welcome to realism, gunshots are loud. Either deal with it or turn ya fukn volume down

[crack]

You are absolutely correct, but this community is toxic, and when these ***** will be old, they wont hear anything without their hearing implants.

Absolute joke that there is no option to lower the sound of guns.

All points about realism are complete rubbish.
