Summary (AI)

Big Walk patch 1.4.8 addresses an issue where some players' voices were quieter than intended, especially those with quieter microphone setups. The update improves voice volume calibration, making affected players louder both up close and at medium distances, while maintaining the original voice drop-off range to preserve gameplay dynamics. This fix aims to align player experience with the developers' intentions and may take time to fully calibrate during play. The patch is currently available on Steam and will be released on other platforms later. The developers encourage player feedback as they continue to refine the game.

Tip: expand all for quick scanning.

We just put out our first post release patch (version 1.4.8) out on Steam. It will take a little while to make its way onto other platforms.
If you had your volume turned up very high to hear other players speaking, you should be able to bring it back down now.
We've had many people play Big Walk before release using their own microphone setups, and none of them were particularly affected by this issue. There are now hundreds of thousands of people playing Big Walk, so people are finding issues we've never seen before. Sorry!
Yes and no.
Maybe, we aren't sure yet.
Let us know! We are always very happy to get player feedback. We don't have a dedicated media person who can reply to Steam forum posts (sorry!), but we'll be reading this thread and taking notes.
Yes. This won't be our last patch. We appreciate your patience.
