No Surround sound in the game

[JC! A Bawm!]

Game doesnt support surround sound

It doesn't seem to support any directional audio at all, actually. I use a Dolby headset, and all the sounds are flat from every channel at the same time.

I hope they add surround sound in future updates. 5.1 is good enough. 7.2 would be even better. This game would be great with surround sound.

Game desperately needs better sound design, especially 5.1/7.1 support. For a game about realism, this is a huge oversight.

Yes, this has been bothering me for a long time. Honestly, RoN might be the only FPS I've ever played without surround sound and it's absolutely baffling as to why the most basic of basic features is still missing. It's so important in a game like this, and I've lost count of how many times I've died because I literally couldn't even tell whether shots were coming from in front or behind.

We're going backwards, lads!
3D audio pre-2000's era, Rampant! BIG! Creative Labs, Sound Blaster, Genius wooden Hi-Fi 5.1 cabinets with massive subwoofers. mid 2000's Stereoscopic gaming 3D Video tech where else if not on PC-Gaming enthusiast segment?
Fast forward 20 years. Not only nvidia silently took out 3D vision, now you play tactical game in stereo sound 2.0.
APPLAUSE peeps! Did you notice discrete sound cards are basically dead. Creative doesnt even make 7.1 anymore. Cheap USB stereo dacs and all RGB various USB virtual surround sound headset market is killing it all.
We're so heading towards more innovation. Independently developed VR is stagnant as well despite all the horsepower todays GPUs and CPUs offer. Nvidia just dont care anymore, they just want $$$$.
To be honest, I'm quite baffled over the tech horsehite of todays age.
FYI I'm super glad that I can care less due to the fact my gaming childhood was fulfilled to a max but gee, youngsters really let themselves be milked for NOTHING nowadays. Especially for all the digital stuff they dont even hold in hand. No innovation but dumbing down the masses. Though devs should seriously think, surround sound was supposed to be implemented before they even wrote the first code of the game. Is it DirectX 11/12 limitation? It'd be nice to know though, since DX11 by microsoft is directly behind killing of stereoscopic vision. Go figure.
