Vehicle Sound Update

Does anyone else not enjoy the new vehicle sounds after the update on Oct. 23rd? Specifically the RB26 sounds…?

I’m not usually one to complain (I dealt with the Viper sounding like a V10 lawnmower) but these new sounds for the 3.2L TT I6 are so awful at High RPM’s, Low RPM’s sound okay but I can’t drive the Skyline or my RB 94’ Silvia due to the amount of treble in the new sound sample. If any Forza Horizon 4 developer’s happen to see this I ask please that someone look over this and see if it can/will be adjusted again for the next update.

I’ll be honest I enjoy most of the new sounds, but the ear-piercing, high pitch RB26 sound samples need to be fixed or at the least revert back to the previous sounds, the same ones the Volvo V60 are currently using.

Edit: The issue has been semi-resolved by changing my Default Sound Quality to 16 bit instead of 24 bit in Playback setting. Anyone experiencing this on PC may want to do the same.

It’s funny you mention low rpms sounding ok. In the main running engine sound thread, someone posted a video of an RB26 R34, implying that was what the game should sound more like. I almost commented, it sounds like FH4, until about middle revs, and everything above sounds alien. There’s a reason the old soundbanks had samples from the entire rev range and all throttle positions… it’s necessary!
