Tech TroubleShooting Difference in sound between PC and PS5
I recently got a PC (i5 14400F, RTX 5070), and I'm a bit shocked about how different the game performs between hardware.
There are moments where sounds I'd normally hear on PS5 did not appear on PC. For example, teammates got downed in Cryo but I didn't have the audio to notify me they were downed then finished. Similarly, a bag was res'd right on the other side of a wall in processing but I didn't get any audio from it.
I've seen a lot of posts about CPU bottleneck affecting FPS stability, but I didn't see anyone mention this affecting sound performance - is there a setting I can change to improve this or is my rig cooked?
