Audio updates with Apex Legends Season 24

- Mono audio combines left and right sound channels into one, making it easier for players with hearing impairments to hear all audio cues. It ensures no important sounds are missed, regardless of ear or stereo positioning.
- Friendly footsteps volume and audible distance reduced
- Friendly skydive volume reduced to allow for strategizing during drop (enemy volumes unchanged)
- Increased importance for zipline attach/detach and doors to ensure they are heard more consistently
- Reduced volume of squadmate and ambient audio while enemies are being revived
- Reduced volume for Fuse's Tac and Ult
- Reduced volume for Survey Beacons and Ring Consoles for self and squadmates (enemy volumes unchanged)
Dev note: Audio can be crucial whether you’re the squad attacking or the one being attacked. We’ve adjusted multiple audio cues to assist with combat effectiveness, and have a few more initiatives in the works to optimize audio throughout the match.
Graphics changes
- Improved CPU rendering performance on all consoles
DX12 (PC) updates with Apex Legends Season 24
- Changed the way that ultrawide monitors handle 16:9 and 16:10 resolutions in full-screen mode. They will now have pillarboxing (black borders on left and right) and no stretching. This behavior can be disabled with +mat_wide_pillarbox 0 launch argument, if stretching is desired.
- CPU rendering performance improved 5%-10% (situation based) and some frame drops may be reduced
- Added a launch argument +mat_minimize_on_alt_tab 1 that allows behavior similar to DX11 where tabbing away from/clicking out of the fullscreen game causes Apex to minimize
- Improved loading performance after compiling shaders for the first time (up to 30% faster on some systems). Note that shaders always need to be pre-loaded to minimize gameplay stuttering.
- Added a launch notification for players with incompatible GPUs that DX11 support will be discontinued
