Hello CheesusCwitht.
This is not a game bug and it is up to the dev team to decide whether this feature is going to be adjusted for the future. We would like to rework the sound to be more consistent with the other in game sounds, however I cannot currently provide any estimates as to when this could happen.
Regards,
Geez

I was reliabily informed by several people that Bohemia Interactive takes accessibility issues very seriously. Unfortunately I've seen no evidence of this being the case.

To be clear, I have tinnitus, hyperacusis, ADHD and ASD and this relatively new sound effect triggers a lot of these conditions.

Sorry for your problem but they are not going to change the game because you have problems. As simple as that. They cannot accommodate the game to every person with illnesses and disabilities out there.

This sound effect is horrific. I have no idea why after so many years implementing these sound effects was deemed neccessary, and with no option to turn it off. It's incredibly jarring and has made the game totally unplayable for me from a health point of view.

I’m having the exact same issue as the people above. It only happens to me on one PC server; TheCommunityZ. I am UK based and relatively close to the server’s location. It is making the server almost unplayable at times.
