infiltrator 275 Posted November 2, 2015 Since Dayz went into alpha, the bug where you can't hear shots has been plaguing it. I can't believe that almost 2 years later it's still around and kicking. Is it really such a big problem to fix? It makes for an excellent immersion and gameplay ruiner, friend fires shot, you hear nothing, he says "I missed". Or a recent situation, friend got shot twice, I hear nothing. He's literally 2 meters next to me, bleeding and I hear nothing. I realize, many things are important. Desync is absurd (perhaps the reason why said sounds are muted - lost packets), animations/movement are sluggish, interface unresponsive. But this is one of the fundamentals of any FPS and the development team lets it slide for 2 years. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's an annoying bug for sure, and it will get fixed. However, we don't have specific dates for when all the different issues in DayZ will be fixed. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
