I’m standing in the middle of the street and no one is around. It is completely dead silent, unless I take a footstep. It sounds really odd, especially when it’s raining and each raindrop is completely silent. I thought it was a bug at first (PS4), but I’ve been watching the gameplay of other people and it’s similar. Also, the music is incredibly quiet during missions which is a shame because it’s really quite good when you can hear it. Point is, even when you’re in the BoO or a Settlement, the game is strangely silent, even for the apocalypse.
Playing in Atmos on Xbox One X - the sound mix definitely sounds odd (seems center channel heavy; misplaced emitted sounds from rears).
Best example, in Atmos: Staring at an NPC in the moderate distance (picture the other side of an intersection), their gunshots and vocal cues are coming from the rear channels (emphasized top-left and top-right). I would expect those to come from, in that instance, front-left, front-right, center, and (depending on bullet trajectory) front-top-left/front-top-right.
Even without native Atmos support, there definitely seems to be a bit of an issue with the 5.1 mix (let alone 5.x.x/7.x.x)
Is this still the case after today's update?
