Does the sound quality of the VO's sound really bad to you? PCver

I noticed it in the demo and again in the main game. I don't know if it's because of the studio monitors I'm using or what, but the higher frequencies sound like they're getting compressed to the point of distortion. I keep hearing that hissing sound every time a VO speaks with an S. I was wondering if anyone else noticed this too?

Poor radio communications in a warzone?

It doesn't sound bad to me, it sounds like (for the soldiers at least) they're talking over radios. The VO delivered "in person" sounds fine.

It's gated to sound like radio chatter.
