Abrams are suddenly super silent with their turbine engines.
Died to clickbaits and aims that were next to me and I could only hear their engine when they were right in front of me. Anyone else experiencing this or knows a work around? My volume is at 80% and my squadmate was telling me they're driving and I couldn't hear them.
Not sure if it could be a Dolby Atmos Surround issue.

surprisingly they are apparently pretty quiet in real life as it happens

as for the game, turn enemy engine noises up along with your master volume if necessary, and then turn everything else down until it achieves the same levels it was previously at

Gaijin turned off Boeing 747 sound probably and replaced it with actual M1a2 sounds

Yeah have it set like that. Just surprised they actually changed it. So it's not just me then that's good.

Yea I can still hear an Abrams on the other side of the map. Been next to a few and they aren’t as loud as you think, and the further away, they’re quieter than a diesel engine. The Snail is just partially deaf or really hates the fact that turbine engines are sexier than diesel ones.

although yes, they are not as loud as a passenger jet taking off. they are still loud enough...more over..a 60 ton tank still shakes the ground when on the move.

Audio bug. I can hear every Abrams about halfway across the map no problem.

Now imagine a Maus "sneaking" around because of the buggy audio.

Hello mate,

I had to laugh when I read this, it may have actually been me who killed you. Or at least many others like you.

US MBTs players are adapting. We race like lighting into key positions. And we turn our jet powered engines, you can here across the map actually OFF.

Guess what? Off, we silent as death!

Players are so use to the turbine noises, they all confused when an Abrams hits them and they didn't hear it.

Much fun!

Last I played the sep and the abrams they were way too loud. Now they drive in front of me less than 200 meters out and I can't hear them lol. Still a measly dm13 round to take out an abrams to the turret ring is enough. But the sound is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with me lol. 7.1 surround and dolby atmos with 80% game volume (cracked out devs)
