What’s the deal with sound mods?

Mods, please don’t instantly close this topic again. I can’t speak for everyone, but I want my mods back. As the title states, what’s the deal with sound mods being disabled still? It’s been a month now of using the vanilla sounds. It’s mildly infuriating as a long time wt player for Gajin to completely disable sound mods because of a small percentage of people having issues with them. We’ve gotten 0 updates on the progress of mods returning. It takes 5 seconds to say “We’re still working on a fix for sound mods, we’ll keep you updated”. Instead we get 0 updates regarding sound mods, but yes, let’s have some more premium vehicle sales!

It seems their focus is on creating new premium vehicles that completely ruin the game. (Unrelated but how is the SU30 still at 13.3, that’s some BS).

There are hundreds of thousands of people that used these sound mods before y’all disabled them. There definitely was a smarter way to fix sound issues than disabling mods for the entire player base.

Gajin, please just re-enable sound mods while you work on a fix. We’ve gotten no updates with sound since y’all disabled them. 🙏

Asking them to return sound mods back is like asking the doctor to give you back your foreskin, 20 years after they took it from you.

They broke the sounds. They dont want to fix it. This way its easier for them, they dont have to answer the “sound not working” tickets. They’ve deleted my posts too, that was shedding some lights on what’s actually broken with the sounds (and its not even the sounds themselves).

It is what it is. But hey at least you can buy some new copy-paste top tier premium slop!

Yeah… very annoying, the game sounds terrible without them and all we’ve gotten is “Soon™” and why they were switched off in the first place is really vague.

They were switched off because last major update completely broke some mods, to the point where it would just straight up make the game crash on certain maps. Also “”“they”“”" (the non-gaijin employees “volunteering” for ticket management) complained that people dont know how to use/disable mods whenever they have problems and put the fault on the game. That statement in itself is completely false, when I reported sound issues I gave them all the information, mentioning 100 times that I was NOT using mods at the time of capturing footage of said issues. They closed my ticket and said “you used mods!” (yes they literally DID NOT read the ticket).

“A few people had issues with mods. So we just nuked the entire observable universe, to make sure nobody never has this issue ever again”.

Edit: btw i posted the same message on another subject, it got deleted. I think someone’s mad at the mean things i said…

Yeah, I think they were also salty that modders were doing a better job than them (Typhoon’s proper VWS that has an accepted report that is over a year old for example)

Yep, that too. Anyone with basic understanding of their sound engine and how to make sound mods can lowkey make something 10 times better than they could ever dream of.
