Player volume ratio
Not being able to hear my own bike really throws me off when I play online. Any chance we can get a slider or two for player/opponent volume ratio?

Re: Player volume ratio
+1, seems like when I race online my overall volume is even lower, but especially my own seems to be hard to hear, now please don't go 'in real life you don't hear your own bike', cause anyone of us that's actually been out riding know that ain't true, maybe on a 2-stroke, but most of us ride 4-strokes in-game.

Re: Player volume ratio
It's actually very true that you don't hear your own bike as loud at the bikes in front of you in real life. Their exhaust outlet is in front of you, yours is behind you... However in real life you don't need to hear your bike to know when to shift, you can feel it through the vibrations of the bike, and through how hard the bike is pulling, two things we don't have in the game. That is why I think it is fair to add a player volume ratio control.

Vibrations for controllers? Make it vibrate on high revs and cased jumps etc.Phathry25 wrote:It's actually very true that you don't hear your own bike as loud at the bikes in front of you in real life.
