Please. Care about your health. Protect your hearing. I'm posting this every so often on this sub and am going to be downvoted to hell but as a person actively suffering from tinnitus (hearing damage. constant high pitch noise in your ears) I promise you, it is not fun. If even a single person installs this software and protects his hearing it will be worth it.

A software exists that can help you prevent the damage if your headphones software do not posses a function like this (a lot of modern gaming headphones do), and it's called EqualizerAPO. It will allow you to compress the sound not allowing anything louder than a certain threshold.

Here is a video explanation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXuAwpt4WsQ.

I understand why a lot of people would consider it unfair or cheating. I understand that you want that advantage and want to hear everything around you. But the gunshot loudness in this game has long time been proven to be damaging for your hearing. It's a videogame. No matter how much realism is pushed videogame should not, and can't be worth, damaging your health. It's extremely disrespectful from the developers to be as irresponsible for that part of the game, so you should be responsible for your own health.
