Modern Warfare 2 dev responds to complaints over \u201cloud\u201d footstep audio Activision\/TreyarchInfinity Ward has responded to growing concerns from players regarding footstep audio issues in the Modern Warfare 2 beta. Modern Warfare 2\u2019s beta is finally here, and fans across the world are getting their first look and experience of the game for what it is. Infinity Ward has claimed they\u2019ve worked on new sound technology to improve footstep audio \u2013 a prominent issue in almost every Call of Duty, which the devs just can\u2019t get right. However, despite their increased focus, players are still running into a few issues, leading the developers to address concerns. Infinity Ward developer sheds light on MW2 audio Players have had quite a few concerns when it comes to MW2\u2019s audio, with many agreeing footsteps are generally too loud. Additionally, the community has also voiced complaints regarding Dead Silence, which is now an in-game Field Upgrade instead of a Loadout Perk. Now, one developer has put out a detailed thread addressing concerns from players. In a September 16 tweet, Audio Level Designer Christopher Christensen gave an explanation of why footsteps seem so loud in-game. \u201cYour own footsteps (1st-person) is completely different than what others hear, and is for your information only,\u201d the dev wrote. The audio designer also gave a tip to players, suggesting they should take the time to learn all the new sounds. \u201cThere are different types of foliage sounds now! Same with water\/oil\/mud puddles. Learning the audible differences, and surfaces throughout each map, will give you a huge map-knowledge advantage!\u201d Additionally, he noted there\u2019s an option to set your walking move speed, which also modifies your walking footstep audio volume. The developer also clarified that footstep audio is based on player speed. Nonetheless, players shouldn\u2019t be too concerned with MW2\u2019s footstep audio. Remember that full-blown sprinting is much louder than crouch walking or crawling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
