Re: SOUND BUG MAKES TITANFALL 2 ALMOST UNPLAYABLE

It's inconsistent. The first hour I played was basically pure garbled mess, it's gotten better since then with it only happening a few times a round. I ended up testing with some music running in the background (wasn't able to test with a second audio device, so compared separate audio sources) and the music playing worked just fine playing through the same device. I was playing the game with the music running and Titanfall had the audio issues but the music was perfectly fine at the exact same times.

edit: forgot to mention that it happens when I'm in discord or not. It happens when I'm in a party and when I'm not.  It seems voice systems don't have any impact on it.

Thanks for getting back to me btw.

     i have the same issue.

    Single player some times sound just goes all "like someone rubbing a mic" like and it happens on my speakers, headset, tv speakers, monitor speakers, you name it.

    Never a sound issue in any thing else.  My motherboard is brand new and I doubt the onboard sound is going (its a MSI GAMING 970 AMD board) 

    Maybe its the cpu reaching close to max load and somethings gotta give?

    Hmm, if you're familiar with how to do so (right click your speaker icon and choos audio devices, then check the Properties for the device) can you try changing the sound format and see if that changes anything. 

    Try 16 bit, 44100 Hz and try again and see if that changes anything?

    I have the same issue and my audio is at these settings as well. The other week there was another thread about this that remained unanswered.  Currently the game audio is set to 7.1 Surround Sound.  I don't have 7.1 Surround Sound for my headset.  Every other game out there would allow me to change Audio to "Headset" but this one doesn't.

    This audio issue is affecting the play ability of this game.  Until there is a fix for this audio issue I cannot play.  Searching the web finds many users having this issue on the PC. Everyone has updated their drivers, set the audio quality to the lowest setting in the properties for their playback device and even significantly lowered graphics properties and none of this works.  The sound distortion/popping/garbled speech happens in single player and MP.  There is a serious bug here and I have yet to find a real answer from EA on even acknowledging the issue.

    Same here.  Haven't played for week now because of this.  I hope EA would at least acknowledge this is a bug and they are working on it.

    I am quite frustrated at this point. I spent time with EA support chat last night.  They read all my troubleshooting I've done so far and asked me to 'repair' the game.  That made no difference.  They then ended the chat by sending me an email with a long list of things to do that "will surely solve my problems."  The list was to basically uninstall and reinstall Origin and Titanfall 2.  This did not work and now there is no easy way to keep the case going as they closed it.  EA support model is atrocious.  Getting help is non existent as I keep getting referred to this site that has ZERO answers.  Not sure what recourse I have at this point.  I've even tried tweeting at support to no avail.

    Wow, that sucks.  Is it too late to return the game because its unplayable?

    Did some more troubleshooting with EA support.  Totally useless.  They will not focus on the game at all, just a standard list of: reinstall origin, reinstall titanfall 2, update drivers, ccleaner, clean boot, blah blah blah.  I point out to them that there are others on forums with the same issue and that my other games work just fine. If EA or Respawn would just ACKNOWLEDGE the issue and let us know something will be addressed in an update I'd be fine.  EA's ridiculous support steps aren't getting me or anyone else the resolution we need.

    I applied the latest update for my 980ti from Nvidia and performance has improved a bit.  I can play in campaign mode with little sound distortion but multiplayer is a different story.  Once a lot of action begins to occur, especially when Titans are involved, the sound gets distorted pretty quick.

  • I'm getting audio breakup on my Xbox One S mainly during Multiplayer. It's really annoying and frustrating.

    I was having the same issue and found that my CPU was getting maxed out. Closed a pesky program that was causing it and voila, no more sound/stuttering issues.

    Did the update solve this for anyone?  It didn't for me.

    Having the same problem and it's just pissing me off, I can't play the game

  • I was playing the game just fine. Then stuttering and distorted sounds came on. this was about 2 months ago. 2 weeks ago my video card broke down ard I bought a gtx1070 hoping I would play the game flawlessly. but no, that was not the issue. I read and read and no adjustments helped. FIY I run an i5 16 gb ram with a gtx1070. 3 days ago MINT.exe popped up. I searched and found that was a virus using my GPU for mining. When I cleaned it out of the system. Everything was back to normal. This sh** , pardon my language, just sucked up my resourses to mine bitcoins. So this may be everyones problem. check the directory C:\Windows\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\AppContainer\Storage\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\Children\001\Internet Settings

    under appcontainer you may have another folder. people have different answers for that.
    Anyway check for a bitcoin miner in your system
