Terrible sound quality!
I had a plantronics 780 virtual surround headset before and everything was perfect. It broke plus i wanted to upgrade to true surround so i bought the plantronics rig 800HD which boasts dolby atmos. Games that support dolby are great, although i don't have the same clarity as my old headset as things are more bass now.

However, sound in this game now is rubbish! Sure i can hear a few things really well that i couldn't before like birds chirping and a few other effects but when it comes to noise positioning its terrible. I was outside a building and heard crunchy footsteps inside and i get shot in the back in an open space. The guy must have walked/run to get that close but the noise didn't register or positioning was all wrong.

I've done dolby sound tests on youtube and it sounds amazing, apart from a little crackle when the bass gets too heavy ( my headset is not £200 after all lol) but am i right in thinking that the game does not support dolby? I see no special options for sound so i'm guessing it relies on your windows setup maybe?

In sound format option w10 my speakers only go up to 16bit 48000hz and there is only one driver for my headset and it's built in W10. I'm using dolby access for the atmos but all settings have the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥ affect.

I really hope that someone sees this that knows their audio and can help me please. Thanks.

Hunt is optimized for stereo

Hunt sound even though has some nice effects is really actually bad and people tend not to notice that (I wonder why *khm* *khm* - > camping in the bush 90% of the match)

I have 250$ studio headphones and pretty much amazing gear for getting the best possible sound out of games and music. Have 0 issues with anything, expect Hunt and maybe CoD Warzone (which has serious footsteps issues and lot of people hate that, but again, it's a game on a much bigger scale with 150ppl in)

Hunt can't seem to produce more then 2-3 sounds at same time, and often some of that sound gets cutted out or lowered to extremely low levels. Also, since many of the things inside the map are server sided, and Hunt server are one of the poorest one I have played on since, damn, 2000's?, sound just gets cutted out, lowered, delayed etc. Esp. with birds, dogs..

Damn, also that bug where you burn dogs in cage and they keep barking for like 15 more seconds, lel, and they even said they fixed it.


Either way, use stereo for Hunt, but don't be suprised if you find yourself in situtation where you didn't hear a thing. Your teammate footsteps are louder then enemies, take that in mind also, lol.

Glad it's not jsut me and thanks for the info Iron. I'll try to see if there is an option to switch hunt to stereo then, maybe in windows.

I also noticed that my team mates footsteps are way louder and as you say but not as loud as my own. Either sounds get clipped or my own footsteps drown out everything else i can't say. Shame there is no mod if the devs aren't going to attend to this issue soon.

There was no info in patch notes of them enhancing surround sound. I mean how space affects the sound, like how shots ring indoors etc. But overall they've sounded great now. Only thing is weird clipping I get every now and then, not every session.. where all sound dies for a fraction of a second, be it 0.5s or whatever, obviously I can't time it exactly.

I have a set of AKG K712 Pros on a USB DAC and amp stack and have noticed instances where people have come into a building and sat staring right at me before I noticed that they were there when other people were running around outside. I also have a hard time figuring out where in a building people are once I'm inside.

On the flip side, in outdoors areas I can hear people coming and running around inside buildings with pinpoint accuracy. It's quite odd.

Edit - Should also clarify that I don't exactly have the best hearing either.

You have to use stereo settings. If you place your headset on surround its often times messed up. Its designed with binaural audio and its actually stereo frequency but has other program tricks to make your ears perceive location.

ok but how does one change their headset to stereo? Is it in speaker option from control panel?

Yes, if you're in Win 10 go to the Sound settings screen and on the right click Sound Control Panel. Once you're in there right click your headphones, "configure speakers", and make sure stereo is selected.

You can also click properties and make sure no spatial sound settings are enabled, but AFAIK they only work when surround is picked in games and maybe movies, not stereo. You could also play with this setting and see if it helps Hunt, I am considering giving it a shot.*

*Didn't seem to have any effect for me. Not able to select 7.1 in Hunt anyway, or whether it does it automatically, so who knows.

I had bought the HydroX II Cloud headphones over my old Corsair's.
Since the purchase the sounds in Hunt are much clearer and crisp. I hear everything. Much more than the Corsair's. A lot has to do with the headphones for sure.
I know that Hunt Showdown is set for stereo but I experimented with the surround sound too. In windows 10, I made the HydroX my default sound and in the game settings I have those options both set ( sound and voice) set to my headphones.
I also have a software program that has an equalizer. There are a lot of those available. Mine has a setting ( it came with my Corsair headphones, this software) for FPS games. That setting and a little tweaking with the equalizer the sounds in Hunt are awesome.
So, if the headphones are decent I would make sure in windows 10 that the default is your headphones, make sure it's set up the same in the audio settings in the game and download a good software program that has an equalizer.
I am able to pinpoint players sounds, rifles/pistol shots, grunts, dogs and all other sounds with such accuracy it is unbelievable.
I hope this helps.
🤠
Forgot to mention: all this in surround sound. With surround on I can accurately pinpoint runners and shots way better than stereo. It's the equalizer that made such a big difference.

Did the sound get worse? I always suspected this. I swear I was able to pinpoint EXACTLY where other hunters were using just sound. Now, it sounds like a hunter is right next to me but he's actually like 30 meters away. Wtf. Got me killed so many times lol.

I have noticed this as well. I took a long break from the game and when I returned it seems much more difficult to pinpoint where enemy hunter footsteps are coming from. And some audio seems way to loud for the distance you hear them at.

Seriously, this is beyond irritating. For a game that has you rely so much on audio cues, it's becoming increasingly difficult to actually gauge how far someone is away now. In addition, when I melee a grunt or trigger an audio cue within a meter of me, it is SUPER loud. Like, it hurts my eardrums. The worst is the hive screaming in my ear. But if I lower the master volume any lower, I won't be able to hear anything in the distance. Is this the same for you?
