The Isle Sound Cues That Beginners Should Learn
Closed thread Closed by archiveI used to play with music on in the background, but I'm starting to think that's a terrible idea in this game.
Sometimes I hear something nearby and have absolutely no clue where it is. Are there particular audio cues worth learning first? I'm not looking for a list of every dinosaur sound, just ways to become less oblivious.

Learn the difference between nearby activity and distant sounds. Don't assume every noise means something is about to attack you.
Headphones can help with directional audio, assuming the game and your audio setup are behaving correctly.
And don't blast the volume. You shouldn't need to destroy your hearing to hear footsteps.
Good point. Check your audio balance too. Some virtual surround settings can make positioning feel weird.
I definitely play music too loudly. Going to try a session without it.
Prepare to become suspicious of every twig in existence.
