Tanks used to be loud, enough to hear them. I did see players crying about Abrams being loud etc… so they probably lowered everything. I remember being able to hear tanks nearby, now barley. So yea, its a very unreliable implementation. I wear a headset, thats how bad the low sound of tanks is.
after nearly 2 year in the game. the abrams has lost their engines sound in recent update.
it is crazy to me that a ww2 tank can be x2 as loud as 60ton mbt.
now i have installed a sound mod, i can hear everything. its their fault and i will not use theirs sounds to limite the player skills. also i am a speaker player, not a head set. tried once, twice as loud. in the same volume
