Volume adjust- music and sound effects are different settings, so if music was down and sound normal, the volume of the explosion special effect could have been unexpectedly loud.
Shift +/- Music
CTRL +/- Sound Effects
F1 to check
Actually, the volume was down; I set it just high enough to hear a door open. I may, however, have been closser to it than was particulalry safe IRL (pressure wave), but that screen REALLY shook; I thought there was a server failure at first.
If you're not in view to see the explosion, you're screen will shake and a loud noise will occur.
You mean that was NORMAL?! Dear God/s, what does a BIG bomb do? lol..........
Persoanlly I thought it was interesting, maybe slightly amusing, and since I'd never seen THAT before, well...... *shrug*
