I can't say I've ever found TFAR to be very directional. I didn't even think nkey had implemented surround for it yet but it might just be my Audio Processing Disorder which makes virtual surround not very effective for me.
I do tend to use mk4 HUD to locate people but if you don't recognise the voice of the person who shouts "I'm injured" you have to go through an unrealistic routine of asking the person to give you their name and even when you do recognise someone's voice, it's still not as easy as IRL, where someone shouts, you turn towards the sound and see them waving frantically at you
