Snipe Audio Queue Not Working

Title says it, I've had a few cases where the audio queue hasn't been working properly. Now that Miats is gone (as it should be) there is no real way to counter. So either Snipe needs a better and proper telegraph that works or Miats needs to come back in some form

    I never used Miats and hadn't really a problem with snipe but yeah since the last patch it's bugged. In addition, even if you hear it and you dodge roll to avoid it, you still get hit somehow, known issue, but I never noticed that before (no lag involved). At least there is new content to buy so who cares about bugs, rite?

    I'm far more in favor of fixing the audio cue than I am of Miats getting the snipe warning back.

    You assume they can fix it

    My only issue with snipe is that reflected snipes don't hit the cloak abusers.

    Its just ***.

    I do assume that ZOS would rather fix a bug than revert the changes they've made to the API to prevent an addon from functioning in a way they don't want it to. (I also assume that ZOS would rather let us all continue to deal with a bugged Snipe audio cue than than revert the changes they've made to the API to prevent an addon from functioning in a way they don't want it to.)

    So, it wasn't just me. Ffs I thought it was my headphone being problematic. Glad it wasn't the case. And yes, sometimes dodgeroll does not work against it. No wonder there are more stamblades now than ever.

    Could it be they turned the sound of from stealth only? Cause that is when I noticed this,
    I play with music, so I was thinking I had too loud music to hear it so I turned it down, but I did not find a snipe guy after that, so was not sure. This will be rather annoying for a while.

    I get annoying by having to turn my music down... But Honestly it doesn't play sometimes. And at other times I hear it after I'm dead

    No, this is new. And affects all skills in the game. The more laggy it is the less sounds/effects are playing. Since patch I cant even see or hear frags hitting me. I died to snipe more times than in last half year (and i never used Miat). Surprisingly, Dark Flare still works flawlessly.

    I had random sound cuts since Morrowind. I’ve stopped arguing about snipe or stealth though. It is what it is, and it won’t get changed.

    Also health desyncs are back with a vengeance, but that’s a problem that has never really left PvP.

    There has always been sound issues but this one is specifically for snipe. Previous to this patch I always had the audio cue
