[2019] Is it just me or is there a distinct lack of ambient noise?

Playing in Atmos on Xbox One X - the sound mix definitely sounds odd (seems center channel heavy; misplaced emitted sounds from rears).

Best example, in Atmos: Staring at an NPC in the moderate distance (picture the other side of an intersection), their gunshots and vocal cues are coming from the rear channels (emphasized top-left and top-right). I would expect those to come from, in that instance, front-left, front-right, center, and (depending on bullet trajectory) front-top-left/front-top-right.

Even without native Atmos support, there definitely seems to be a bit of an issue with the 5.1 mix (let alone 5.x.x/7.x.x)

PS4 here. (Thank god you guys see this) Have the same issue since Monday - and even after todays update. :(

Some more details:

• No sound when attaching yourself to a rope, only when going down on it.

• Thunder even disappearing when you stand under a bus station roof.

• No rain sound.

• No SFX at all - you hear no wind and no atmo-noise.

Interesting: in some regions more south, the sound returns over time. But only for short periods.
