About the sound...

I've noticed that there no longer seems to be a difference between the footstep sounds on tile, cement, car and truck hoods and many carpeted areas.

I know the carpeted sound exists as I've heard it in several maps but it appears to be misplaced for the interior of banks in Mayhem/Safeguard missions as well as several Office maps.

Car and Truck hoods should sound metallic.

I have also noticed that the sloshing sounds when running in water appears to be missing from Sewers and Sewer missions but is still heard (though faintly) in other maps and in the city zones.

Has anyone else noticed this? Does anyone else even turn up their sound enough to hear these differences?

Have you tried opening a door? That noise is wrong, too...

No, that one isn't wrong. It's just different. They changed them this issue. There are new door, splash and footstep noises.

The problem is, some of them are missing or areas are tagged incorrectly to cause the wrong sound.

The foot sounds on tarmac and cement are alright, needs some work IMO.

The water sounds great.

The grass sounds awesome.


The door sounds like you smushed a baby bird in the hinge of it.
I cringe every time I hear it.

Upon further playing I have also noticed that the door sounds for Sewer Grates, Manholes and Stone Boulder doors appears to be missing as well.

Also, the roof of the Train Stations appears metallic but sounds like cement. Ditto for Ferries in the RI.

I always get a kick out of the sound when an axer pulls out their weapon. It sounds like a rifle being cocked.

Brick and cement structures at the PTS power plant (both in the Cap Au zone map and in the PTS exterior mission maps) sound like metal when you are running on them.

The metal grates that appear in the center of the hallway floors in Laboratory and Arachnos maps are also wonky. Some of them will sound correct, like metal, while others sound like the rest of the floor.

The metal grates in Cargo Ship maps also do not sound like metal any more.

Sloshing sounds when walking in water also missing from interior PTS, "Find truth behind PTS" mission map.

Also, the sounds appear to be missing for both the VanguardSigil and Spin CC emotes.
