Tip for console players
I know I'm stupid, but I was a cheap ass and my wireless headphones wouldn't connect to my PS4, so I never used headphones while playing. That being said, I finally bought a wired pair off Amazon and my gameplay went up 100%. You can hear sooo much more that I couldn't on my TV. Like footsteps, a survivor breathing that's really close to you, the cry's when their injured, etc, etc. I can't STRESS THIS ENOUGH! WEAR HEADPHONES!!! Lmao 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️

Yeah I enjoy my gold v.2 wireless headset much more than some cheaper headphones I used before. It doesn't improve survivor gameplay that much but helps me when I play killer. Too bad the audio is still not in the good place like before. Sounds are messed up, still.
It sucks showing the game to my friends on console because I play without headphones so they can hear, so I play much worse than I normally do (which is already not great to begin win) as a result.
The psgold version 2?
There was an awesome period between patch 3.0.0 and 3.0.2 where you could swing at the SOUND of a crying Blendette hiding in a bush wearing headphones and hit her.
Unfortunately they "fixed" the sound in 3.0.2 but those were very happy days!
Yeah 2018 ones. Platinum were kinda expensive so I went for these. I love them. :)
I use them too mind if I ask how you set yours up? I took the surround off and noticed a huge difference, but never messed with anything else. Was hoping you might have some insight in them.
You probably have yours for a while, I got mine less than a month ago. I didn't change anything. Did you played after the last update because some sounds were better heard in stereo and surround was messed up?
It is not about the headphones, I think they are quite good, the problem comes from the game itself.
I've had them for about 5 months. I took off surround sound a few updates ago when I was looking for tips on the headphones and noticed a lot of people recommended playing with surround sound turned off. I noticed after trying it I had heard sounds a lot more clearly despite the bad audio. Few updates ago I was ecstatic with how good sounds were you could actually locate people with sounds not just a general direction.
Was just hoping you might of messed with the customization honestly. Rare to run into anyone with psgold headsets.
I didn't mess up with it which is weird for me. I usually have ocd until everything is perfect. But in this situation I thought it wouldn't do much. Wish there are settings for dbd in headset companion app but knowing devs and how sounds change every update it wouldn't work well most likely.
And I prefer having surround over stereo, even if hearing survivors better was the case in stereo.
