Cannot hear gunshots

[crisk21 0]

My friend and I were in Elektro and he kept hearing gunshots yet I couldn't. I can hear everything else, and his gunshots, but not ones in the distance. This happened before in other towns too. Has it happened to anyone else?

Were you recently hurt and healed yourself? Sometimes i lose my hearing when injured badly and it doesn't return untill i relog. It might also help to go into your audio settings and turn up the number of samples. If your computer can play dayZ it can probably be set to higher value than default.

I had full blood and no hunger or thirst. But I'll try setting my samples higher. The servers aren't up atm so I'll have to wait until later to test if it works.
