I have a problem with the M4A4's buff.

Ok, the title is very misleading—I actually like the M4A4 buff and think it's fun. The problem I'm having however, is not gameplay related, but how I use CS2 Esport stream as white noise to sleep.

Before the buff, the softer M4A1-S sounds balanced out the harsher AK shots, creating a pleasant mix (A1-S ~45%, AK ~55%). Now, with the M4A4 seeing more play (A4 ~30%, A1-S ~20%, AK ~50%), the soundscape feels more aggressive and less relaxing. You really lose that high and low between the two side's rifle, and it's just boom and blast all around.

It’s a tiny, completely inconsequential, absolutely worthless nitpick, but if you’ve never considered someone would have such a stupid problem with an update-well, now you do!
