In Fortnite Chapter 2, there is a new sound feature designed to help players hear the location of enemies. Especially Twitch streamer DrDisrespect should be happy about this: He has always been bothered by the fact that players couldn’t locate enemies through audio.
Which sound feature is being referred to? After the update 2.10, a change was added to the sound settings of Fortnite. This feature is called: 3D headphones.
It should help players to locate the location of their opponents and chests, and it was difficult to hear where the enemies were. For instance, they can now better hear, for example, from which direction footsteps are coming.
Here you can see the video about the 3D headphones:
“The sound is terrible!”
This feature should especially please Dr. Disrespect. This way, he might have more fun playing the game and would complain less about Fortnite.
What does the Twitch streamer think about the audio in Fortnite? The streamer DrDisrespect has complained several times about the sound in Fortnite.
He is used to having this feature as standard from other shooters. One of the tricks in shooter games is also to listen to the footsteps of enemies to know where the next attack might come from.
This is why the streamer couldn’t stand the sound: When the Twitch streamer was playing Fortnite, there were major difficulties with the sound as he couldn’t locate his opponents.
In one situation, he found himself in a house. The enemy was on the roof and destroyed the floor that the streamer had built. He couldn’t hear exactly where the enemy was and realized too late that he was already in the same room.
He was quickly eliminated. The streamer then ironically said: “Great audio!”
Here is the clip about that:
Another time, he was just in a build battle and thought the enemy had jumped back to the ground. However, he was up on the high ground the whole time.
He then tried to hide and drink a mini, but the enemy jumped down and killed him with a shot. The Doc shouted: “What’s wrong with this sound? It’s so bad. The audio is terrible. Look at that guy, you can’t even hear him!”
Here is the clip about that:
In Fortnite it’s now hard to level up. But not this weekend, and here is why:
