I played 9h on steam and finished the game on console. (same issue on both)
Almost no audio whatsoever, can't here my car when driving, no ambient sounds. Only radio and dialogues are at good levels. (playing with a 5.1 sound system and headset have the same result) It looks like a problem with audio's mix (I play with default mix faders in games options)

i dunno audio sounds fine for me but i don't use a 5.1 system, just two speakers

I noticed that too. All sounds are too quiet only the radio is loud.

Also using a 5.1 system, changing to stereo instead of 5.1 in the game makes no difference, audio is completely messed up.

SR3 Remastered and I believe SR3 and SR4 suffer from the same issue.

I'm currently tweaking all in-game faders and it seems the "prioritize speech" option is messing a lot but I'll try to share a mix that works best (for me), feel free to share yours (if you have time)

Yup.

The sound mix in this game is awful. The only things that are really audible is the voice actors and music. Everything else is barely audible. From car engines to ambient sounds just in general.

I run my audio through a Fosi Audi K5 Pro Gaming DAC and i can't do much to improve it.

No issues with other games.

[M1k3ol]

ok, that's good advice, I'll try to mess up with the settings

I was willing to overlook all the bad reviews, but this issue is bad, like want to refund it bad.

I can seriously hear a cop swing his billy club clear as day, but i can barely hear the sound of the harley I'm driving. I honestly can't even play it like this, I've tried fixing it but aside from basically muting everything else and blasting the volume nothing works.

I can go with bugs but non-fonctioning audio is a game killer.
