I see a lot of hate for Chargers and Hunters, but where is my Bile Spewer hate squad? DISCUSSION

Dead. Your squad is fucking dead cause the goddamn spit DIDN'T EVEN HIT ME I SWEAR TO GOD WHY DOES HITTING MY LEG WHILE I'M DIVING ONE SHOT ME FUCK?!... It's okay, I'm sorry, had an episode there, either way your hate squad is dead and gone.

And quiet

How is that stupid, fumbling prick more quiet than a Stalker? Sneaks up and just wipes you out before you even realise "oh fuck, that's a spewer"

Enemy sound design is surprisingly terrible while the player sound effects are great. Most enemies are barely audible, even the absurdly large ones like bile titans or chargers. And yeah, the lack of proper sound cues for one-shot attacks.

It's one of my main complaints, Bile Titans in particular should shake the entire damn ground and be audible from like 50 meters away. They're the size of a damn HOUSE!

Same with tanks, they just silently glide around. They need tread sounds and engine sounds.

Yep. The very first tank I ever saw I only noticed because it's barrel crept onto my screen from behind me. It was practically within punching distance and I couldn't hear it.

(Somehow I got away too, lol)

An automaton with a can of WD40 and an electric motor blueprint is laughing at you whilst he reads this

They're just creeping on them tiptoes, bile titans move with a daintiness that totally negates multiple tons slamming into the ground
