Is this like some big joke everyone is playing only on me? I have used it in both xbox demo pc demo and full versions and I cannot tell WTF its doing. Anyone else agree with me?

The Proximity Alarm gives off an electronic bleeping/chirping sound that gets faster the closer an enemy player gets to you.

funny that ive never heard it seeing as I have a 7.1 surround sound system. They should make it louder or have a visual component.

To me the proximity alarm is as obnoxious as a buddy watching you play and say repeatedly: you gonna die... you gonna die. YOU GONNA DIE MAN WHAT ARE YOU DOING!

proxy alarm variant: something's close but I dunno! it's getting closer... closerrrr... HE'S CLOSE! HEEEEE'S REALLLY CLOSE!!

For both of the cases my mind begs me to yell "MAN CUT IT OUT YOU'RE DISTRACTING ME!"

lol man this makes me feel stupid how can I not of ever noticed it.

I just use the proximity alarm as a visual alert.

You know the vertical and horizontal white bars on your map? They turn red when an enemy approaches. It helps a lot.

I haven't actually heard the beeps or chirps even in the demo.

haha that's exactly how it is for me.

i find it that i play much worse when i use it cause of that.

if you dont have it upgraded at all, all you get is the red bar, then after the first upgrade you get a quiet beep then after the last upgrade you get a louder beep and you still keep the red bar, i dont play with out, in the demo for 360 it was just a beeb and was way more affective

I've heard it. I play on Xbox - have base level, can see the bar and hear the noise if it's quiet. The upgraded levels make the sound higher/louder/more noticeable. by quiet I mean no noise but footsteps. Even the "nanosuit armour" voice is louder.
