Nice, looking forward to hearing what effect the sound engine changes have.
Because of 3d sound system DF uses, over 50% of during-siege lag were caused by the sound system...they had to revamp it to fix the issue.

The should have fired the alpha testing bots then, what, they couldn't hear the sound of clown shoes?
Sadly the new sound system has a lot of bugs. Lots of things don't sound correct anymore.
Did they at least make it so that lowering your game sounds doesnt lower your damn system sound?
I hated that , game was always so damn loud and you couldnt hear vent.
