Earrape sounds after today update

My headphone volume is at 20%, but the sound of explosions is still blasting my eardrums—specifically the sound of a missile hitting my aircraft. This started happening after Steam updated War Thunder TODAY; it wasn’t like this yesterday!

I’m trying to record videos for my channel, but dealing with this is ridiculous; it’s the first time I’ve had to edit the audio specifically when an explosion happens. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Also, I know some ignorant people are going to chime in saying, “Just turn down the game volume, it’s simple.” But if I turn down the game volume, the only thing I’ll hear is the explosion!

  • Explosion sound: 1050%

  • Voices, engine, gunfire, music: 30%
