Has sound improved?

This is not only referring to car specific accuracy, but also the lack of throat/grunt/bass from the cars as well. FM7 had very tiny sounding cars, even the accurate ones still sounded anemic. I tried the demo and even when the Harrier jet was buzzing within feet of my car there was little to no depth or bass to the sound. I use Astro A50s and my Home Theater that is 5.1.2 Atmos with a 1500w Definitive Technology Sub. Equipment isn’t an issue. There was a huge( 40+page) thread on the sound issues in FM7 forum. Just wandering if it’s now the norm, thanks for any input gents!:+1:

Engine sound accuracy didn’t really improve. VTEC still sounds the same as FM7, FXXK, LaFerrari and Zonda R still have generic sounds. Can’t speak of other things as I play on TV speakers and sometimes pair of headphones (didn’t try in FH4 yet)

The R35 Gtr has a refined fh3 sample which is better then fm7 but yes all the other sounds are the same as fm7

Unfortunate, thanks for the replies. I did find a 6 page thread about the general sound issues with H4 after this post. The franchise is no longer interested in quality it seems.

Let’s see if they make sound adjustments because YouTube commenters are enraged bro

Weird I think the cars sound much better than FM7.
They really recorded a fair few sounds themselves. Remember this wasn’t made by Turn 10.

Could a mod delete this please, there is already a huge thread going on this subject. Maybe merge if u like, thanks.
