Restore the Separate Gunfire Volume Setting

Under considerationby ascension · 31 Aug

Restore the dedicated gunfire volume slider so players can adjust weapon sounds independently from other sound effects. This would allow players to reduce the intensity of gunshots without lowering important gameplay audio, making the game more comfortable to play while preserving sound awareness.

    I know nobody except me cares and nobody will see this but I think it's nice to have that option for people who don't want their eardrums ruptured, thanks for your attention

    Damn I just came here to post this exactly. I strongly agree, can't play more than one hour without headhache, this setting would be really appreciated because reducing all the sound effects make footsepts etc lower too. And congrats on the 2.0 update it's amazing.

    Please bring back the gun volume adjustment, I can only stand 3-4 games, It was so good being able to adjust it prior to update.

    There are definitely sound physics here that I do not fully understand, but I have noticed in my time playing that your own gunshot sounds are a lot muddier, and quieter than gunshots from other players at a distance. The very first thing I realized when trying to make a proper audio mixing for myself is that I have to sacrifice my own personal gunshot loudness in order to compensate for the extreme volume of the gunfights around me. Immersion is the name of the game, and shooting your own gun should be close to as visceral as being shot at, or near a gunfight taking place. I think it would be beneficial to have a volume slider that independently controls your own gunshots so that upon lowering the volume of the overall sound effects, you aren't also lowering your own gunshot volume.

    Guns sound can be a little low. IMO sound is too high and makes other sounds meaningless, please give the option to reduce that. others ok, nades, bombs, etc.
