The sound design is absolutely horrible

[Dim67]

It's like someone made all the engine sounds on a midi-keyboard, played them through an old motherboard pc speaker and then recorded that. It's the same vroom vroom loop over and over again with a random gear crunch thrown in. None of the sounds actually match what the vehicles are doing. Driving in reverse is just a constant over-revving wheeeeeeh. Since you cant turn off the engine, having a bunch of vehicles parked close together is an awful wall of noise. Farming Simulator 13 had better engine sounds than this.

I cant play this game anymore with the sound on. I doubt they will fix it, so I'll probably shelve this. Too bad really, could have been a great game.

I agree. Engine sounds are very flat and annoying. Expeditions had the same issue for me

This is the one thing that really bugs me about the game. The rest is enjoyable

They are better than Snowrunner at least though eh , but agree the engine sounds are the biggest let down in this series of games.

I have been rather impressed with the engine sounds. I noticed how nicer they seem compared to so many of the Snowrunner vehicles which seem to loop a lot worse.

I agree, the engine sounds in some vehicles are very annoying and looped. My vacuum cleaner sounds very similar.

This game is not about sound. Enjoy the driving physics

The sounds aren't bad per se, but the strain they have doesn't match what they are doing. When I'm revving out to like 9000rpm and going 15kph doesn't make sense

The worst engine sounds of all Saber games. Horrible reverse huge revs. Horrible Tayga and K-700, huge truck sounds like lawnmower while tractor just barely audible, while the rest are just mediocre. Even if they just literally reused Snowrunner sounds - it would be ten times better. I am shocked how many people are deaf to the point they think THIS is a good engine sound quality for a game based on heavy machinery and transportation overall. No surprise Saber just don't give a shoot about the sound, if their targeted player base will eat whatever they throw at them. Looks like we have to pray sound mods will appear, transforming this atrocity to something adequate just like in ETS and ATS.

Akward response. It's not about sound...lol.
You obviously have no clue at all what a good game needs.

The game is not about driving physics. The devs have made that very clear. The problem is, the game is not good at what it actually is about. It's a construction sim with poorly implemented construction concepts. Not a good sign.
