Low Audio?

[CRXWNWRXITH]

The sounds in the game seem rather low. I have turned everything up to 100.

Same problem here. I remember all the yt vids/trailers/reviews you could hear the massive steps from the SM and the chain sword. In my game I can hardly hear ♥♥♥♥.

never heard of this issue, try windows settings, sound, more sound settings, properties of your speaker/headset and do some enhancements like loudness equalization

[Captain Furious]

I have a good speaker setup and I can barely hear the nids coming even when there’s dozens of them

[DudeBro69]

Yup the audio is quite poorly mixed.

I have studio level audio equipment as I work in the media industry and this is one of the games where the audio feels off.

The gun shots lack punch and pop.
Sometimes music is poorly mixed in where its neither clear nor blended in well.

You have to really increase the volume otherwise things start sounding a little distant.

Same sound is awful, every other games work fine but this

[CRXWNWRXITH]

That's exactly the problem. You haven't heard the issue, because you can't hear anything. The game's sounds are muffled in some respect, like the chain sword is whisper quiet. What chainsaw you ever heard that is whisper quiet?

Same issue, fiddled around alittle bit in sonar which improved alot but the chainsword is still low. In executions you can barely even hear it at all. sadge

[JohnDman]

same issue the sound needs better quality, have to turn my volume all the way up and put my equalizer really high just to hear everything good.

It's possible the game has been coded only for surround sound and not stereo. This will cause audio to not be mixed properly for systems using stereo output. Seen this happen with a couple other console ports in the past.

Try selecting "Virtual surround encodes surround audio as stereo output" in your systems onboard sound console/screen.

Guys, I had the same problem, low sound level and nothing was clear. I changed sound output rate to 44100 hz and it sounds now clear and pretty loud. Check your audio device properties if it's 44100 or not

i have HyperX cloud 2's, Turning On my dtsX spatial sound helped the audio get louder. It is definitely meant for surround sound.

I have this problem when joining multiplayer. When I turn voice chat off it fixes it. So I'd just turn it off and join discord until it's fixed.

I’ve actually played it on ps5 and pc and can confirm that the sound is terrible on both platforms. I’ve tried every setting on my PC and on PS5 with multiple headphones and speaker systems. The audio is terribly mixed and surely not as intended. Everything is dull, lacks punch and clarity. Music is often inaudible. The chainsaw sounds like a leaf cutter and footsteps are non existent. It’s really, really strange and can’t work out why it’s sounding so bad

[suboptimal]

Yes, audio feels flat or muted. Everything lacks any punch to it.
