New player: WHY DOES THE SOUND NOT FEEL DIRECTIONAL

Coming from valorant, if someone’s to your left your right headset doesn’t play any sound q at all making it really easy to pinpoint where they are, with siege regardless of where people are it feels as if both sides of my headset are playing sound which makes it feel so hard to pinpoint where they are. anyone else have this problem or is it something i’m just supposed to get use to? (my audio is not set to mono btw)
