Add a separate volume slider or toggle for the player’s breathing sounds during gameplay and spectator mode. The current mouth-breathing audio can feel loud and repetitive, and may cause significant discomfort for players sensitive to this type of sound. Allowing it to be reduced or disabled would improve audio accessibility without affecting other sound effects.
When the view goes into the ending screen leaderboard, stop the breathing sound from the character.
Give us an option to reduce the volume

When you are just waiting to get connected to get into a game, or waiting while host migration process is working, there's no need to hear a guy breathing in your headphones. It's kinda creepy. :)

The sound effect for teammate's labored breathing sounds like it is right up against your bodycam, nearly the same volume level as your own labored breaths from several feet away. It's quite loud in enclosed spaces like Hospital's hallways, for example. Mainly noticed this after sprinting up many times from starting new rounds on Versus mode. I think you should hear it to some degree, but currently it's quite loud combined with your own fatigued breathing. Putting this in Bug Tracker since I generally tend to notice funny things about sounds, and this is one that to me seems unintentional.
when playing with a good headset the breathing really gets annoying
Breathing can be too annoying , multiple instances of breaths at one time making it unbearable. Also sounds like player is stuck in a metal box the way the sounds are projected in game.
It sounds like my GF Sleeping next to me XD. please its hard to play when it sounds like dude is literally breathing next to your ears. Im sorry but im serious
