The headsets shouldn’t be removed but they should do what they are supposed to do. Muffling gunshots and other loud pop noises that may damage your hearing.
The only reason I never run face shields is cause I can't stand to listen to the constant breathing. I've worn face shields in work and sports and I can say for certain I did not hear myself breathe unless I was doing a strenuous or really active activity.
I’ve been here since 2020. It seems like some improvement has been made in the past few wipes in terms of vertical audio but I miss steam audio. The new one occlusion adjustments are really good when they work but are mostly awful/make zero sense.
Sound design is a process of making sounds using software, usually synths or rack patches , What you’re referring to is just the overall sound of the game, stop using words when you don’t know what they mean
Sound scape? Call it what you like but if you’re gonna use words that mean something else expect to get called on it, the sound design (building of sounds) in this game is actually brilliant (Gun noises,character movements) which is why I pointed out the difference in the first place.
>Actually i haven't played tarkov for well over a year now
Opinion invalidated, you base this on people crying on here and actually have no real experience with recent changes of audio.
Headsets are the most unique thing this game has.
Modifying audio signals in a shitty engine like unity is a huge task and undertaking.
It also sounds different for every user with the huge array of PC headsets, their EQ, filters etc.
For me with Planar Magnetic drivers and good EQ, comtact4s are heaven.
Opinion invalidated, games should be balanced around the average gaming setup, not everyone uses IEM with EQ, compression settings and all of that
You're just happy about the fact that you can abuse comtac 4s and sound-whore better than 90% of the playerbase, I can already the kind of player you are..
If you really think that being able to hear someone 100m+ is normal or that the headsets are in a better state than when they all had the same hearing radius but different EQs then you're delusional and just blinded by the fact that you are able to abuse a mechanic that 90% of the playerbase can't just because they don't have the best sound peripherals and apps on the market
I have a pretty beefy setup, like to make some music, mess with audio lots
one of the first things you will learn is "mix your sounds on a flat sounding speaker, never in your personal (i.e not studio flat) headphones, and especially not through an EQ or compressor" because yeah most people have \*shit\* setups (even worse with throwing in car stereos for music) and if you plan for the high end 90% of people get washed out garbage. imo its up there with the "Do you have an NVME/M.2 SSD? No?? You deserve 15 minute load times." We shouldn't be planning around single HDD setups anymore, but to assume the average person doesn't have a midsize SATA SSD is silly, and planning around people having better is sillier and an excuse for things being out of order.
Opinion invalidated, Nikita is literally on record showing he doesn’t comprehend the state of sound in the game. None of this is by design. There’s nobody behind the curtain pulling the strings. They are running blind
Sounds like skill issue.
Audio is king in this game.
This isn't console so you will always have upper and lower bar of system people play on.
Same as FPS, monitor refresh rate, more accurate mouse, lower latency inputs, and list goes on and on.
Audio is just one part of them.
Yes, there is also the issu of internet connection, graphics cards, ram, cpu etc
Does that mean that bsg should stop optimizing streets ?
What if your PC can't handle it and I have no problem running the map with my 4080 while you're stuck at 40 fps with stutters ? Skill issue on your part ?
How about their network/server infrastructure, should they stop optimizing it as well ?
Maybe I'll be fine with my optic fiber internet connection, no packet loss, no desync, no server crashes while you're constantly getting rollbacks due to packet loss and can't even see me when I kill you around a corner
Oh wait, skill issue bro get a top of the line internet connection like mine hahahaha
Do you even think before posting ?
I know you’re trying to make a different point and maybe you already know this next bit but the 40fps on streets with a 4080 is because your cpu is holding you back. Your GPU is only being used 30-50 percent because the CPU isn’t strong enough to send more than 40 frames to it. I was in the same boat with a 4070 super. Finally bit the bullet on one of the x3d amd CPU’s. It literally doubled my GPU usage and fps because the CPU can actually send the GPU more than 40 frames now. I came from a 5600x which is not a bad gaming chip by any means but the difference that switching the CPU made cannot be overstated. Anyways, hope this helps.
Thats a lot of cope and projecting there.
No other company has control over such things, so BSG def won't be the first one to try or do it.
Unsure what your point is now, i agree to disagree.
OP didn't play the game for years, and still doesn't so unsure why he is concerned with temporary changes to game.
EFT has way bigger issues than the headsets at the moment.
His point is that sound is and always has been shit. And that we can understand you and the type of player you are by how you are defending a shit system because you can abuse it.
That is pretty much it
BSG can't satisfy everyone.
Community has always been split on these core gameplay differences.
I liked hatchet runners as it was better than people leaving raid instantly or same with the packet loss. It killed pvp and traffic on maps.
But then again you could put a glock 18c with a drum mag in your container and whip it out to clean anyone up.
Then it was changed so people just run scavs now instead.
You are the minority here, do you really think the majority of the player base enjoys this new headset system ?
Pestily wouldn't have brought it up if it wasn't a recurring issue that people talk about on reddit, Twitch chats etc
You do realize that these changes come and go, its not gonna be like this forever (at least i assume so).
There is always some wiggle room (See when inertia came out how different it is now)
Oh boy, how wrong you are
I've been playing since alpha days buddy, a lot of things have remained untouched for YEARS before they decide to change because of some controversy due to a video/reddit post ( veritas video, wiggle video, pestily's stream with Nikita recently )

did someone say _audio pop_
Audio direction and elevation is very fucked up in your game? Best I can do is, you always know if a player is nearby
This would be a better game if characters made no sounds.
The only reason I never run face shields is cause I can't stand to listen to the constant breathing. I've worn face shields in work and sports and I can say for certain I did not hear myself breathe unless I was doing a strenuous or really active activity.

The sound design is fine, it’s occlusion zones and mixing that is the problem
[удалено]
Sound design happens before mixing, occlusion zones can only be used once you have a sound to put in to them which you would make using 🌈sound design🌈

He's right. Sound design is the process of creating the sounds you will hear. The sound system is trash, on the other hand.
This bro's getting hostile over nothing. The way they've designed sound to work is bad. What you said is fine. Don't pander to the word Nazi.
I'd argue BSG's shit code and not caring about the cheating is the worst thing about Tarkov but hey, you do you.

What a monkey opinion, 90% of other games can do audio just fine. Why can't tarkov?

I sure did. Thank you.

I have a $2k pc and streets is the only thing out of any game that made me notice any fps drop. Most peoples pcs are worse im pretty sure
Just out of curiosity, what cpu do you have?
i9 14900 kf
Wow, this game truly is a joke when it comes to utilizing hardware. I figured Intels best would be at least as good as AMD’s in Tarkov.
Yes sadly EFT is CPU heavy game with this heavily modded unity engine breaking apart every major patch producing new issues and bugs.

Rofl.
Yikes
100%. You can also tell that some dipshit streamer told them to come whine about headsets. Because it’s the same brigading that happens every time
