OW2 Sound Effects?

Has anyone else noticed the spatial sound effects that they were talking about for OW2 on live? It’s most noticeable on Route 66 for me, when I shoot my gun or use a voice line in a tunnel or one of the metal trailers, it actually sounds like I’m in a tunnel. I thought this was meant for OW2, but it seems to have released early?

There’s no patch notes for this either… Did they release it early on accident?

I noticed doomfist’s gun had a different sound for a while

Was Bastion, in both Recon and Sentry forms I noticed sound difference when firing inside the train cars at route 66

Yes, I think the devs have been experimenting with OW2 sounds in the live game.

I’m not sure why. I also noticed the different “echoing” effects on Route 66’s tight tunnels. Doom’s hand cannon did have a different sound for a while, but got removed in one of the latest patches.

I’m not sure why they are doing this, but I’m not complaining since some of these sound great.

I noticed that too! mahbe they’re slowly adding small things from ow2?

Probably because both games need to be compatible with one another and so it is easier to test things on live servers.

Genji’s Double Jump has a new sound effect.

It’s kinda annoying actually.
