Low audio levels
The audio is really quiet for some reason. All sliders at max of course. When I come out of the game and watch a video everything's ridiculously loud.

EDIT: Yeah its definitely the game. This needs to be fixed.

There's nothing to fix my guy. This game is the only one to do this. So its the game, not my sound.

Sound is fine for me, I even have some of the sliders turned down a bit.

Yeah same here, audio is way too quiet, only game where i have to crank up the volume, audio mixing is complete garbage.

They should let us choose between stereo/5.1/7.1 instead of letting the game automatically set it up,,,,,incorrectly

Yeah I've heard this could be the issue. Seems the game defaults to a 7.1 set up. I cant confirm this because theres no way to tell in game, but the devs need to let us choose what kind of audio set up we have. There is definitely something weird going on with the audio.
Strange

clearly there is though. otherwise I would be having the issue also. just because it dose not happen on another game dose not mean its the game that is at fault.. its clearly a user issue so again fix your sound.

Clearly not though genius. By me saying that out of all the games i own and have played on this pc, I've never had that issue until this game. Which says to me...that its the game. And also other people are reporting it too. If you're not getting then issue why post? I could care less if you're not getting it. You're not my intended audience then are you. Get lost.

Same issue here with a basic onboard Realtek and stereo speakers. Overall volume of the game is really low. Changing settings (dolby on/off, spatial on/off, speaker setups, volume levels) doesn't make any difference.

It doesn't really matter whether this is a user or game issue - people still need help with it.

i'm just pointing out that the fault is with the end user and not the game.

i'm fed up of seeing people complain about this ♥♥♥♥ not just with this game but others aswell. its the same crap everytime. blaming the developers and inisiting they fix there game. and then when you try to tell them otherwise they tell you there's nothing wrong with there hardware thinking they know best when they clearly dont and havent even taken steps to troubleshoot things.

instead of complaining on a steam fourm insisiting its the games fault...actually try to troubleshoot the issue and fix the problem yourself.

fact is i dont get crashes i dont get sound issues i dont have any of these problems and when I do if i do i dont go blaming the game..i know something is up with my hardware beacuse its happend in the past.. wether its a faulty sound driver an out dated driver failed component.. unstable system etc the game is never at fault its the end user.. I;m also usijng Real Tek onboard sound and unlike you i don't have any problems.

Yeah I've tried the same things. Even a audio driver update and it didn't do anything. Its weird as well, some of the sounds are all over the place with their volume. Hit sounds seem to be louder and NPC chatter is louder than my characters voice when conversations are happening. The volume levels are all over the place. But they're really quiet regardless.

I'm having the same problem. I don't have this issue with any other game.

I have the problem as well and they've known about it for at least 9 months with no fix.Think it has to do with using headphones.
