Re: Xbox game chat bug post update 3/29/2022

If the problem still persists, can I check if this is a 100% of the time issue, or intermittent. Does it consistently occur with friends and/or random players? Does it consistently happen when cross-playing, and does it still occur if your entire team are Xbox players? if you're with friends are you starting a party before joining Ppex, or loading into a lobby then starting invites?

100% of the time, the squad can only hear me in the Lobby now, but not in a match. I cannot hear them in the Lobby, but I can hear their text-chat; however, in a match, I cannot hear or see their text-chat nor can I hear their voices. This issue occurs with friends, and randoms. It happens with crossplay and with Xbox only players. Some times, I am not in an Xbox party at all, and other times, I am in an Xbox party, and in both cases the issues are still the same.

All troubleshooting that has been given, and the ones recently in this reply, have been attempted. It's still not working.

    @astridt244 Same here. My mic works only in game and not in the lobby. And the weirdest thing is that my mic stopped working in Xbox party chat as well even before opening Apex. How does a game manage to break the whole xbox
  • adding my name to the list! this is 100% not fixed... at all.

    None of the "fixes" work. I've tried literally everything, different controllers, headsets, updating, rolling them back etc.

    If im in Apex and send a message to a friend on my friend list, i see the wav form but cant hear anything... if i leave game chat while Apex is still open and move to party chat, I can then hear the message I just recorded just fine.

    Basically whatever Apex is doing when I'm in "game chat" or the game is running, it shuts my headsets audio off so I cant hear anything. Once I go back to party chat everything is perfectly fine. Mic audio is up, everything is fine on my end.

    this has been 3 months now. If im in game they can hear me just fine (my mic icon is bugged and flashes crazy tho) but I cant hear them at all. this is beyond stupid that this has been 3 months with such a major game breaking issue and we hear nothing about this problem from Respawn

    Issue largely remains unfixed. Microphone works now, but squad mates in menu cannot be heard and ALL team mates in game cannot be heard. All players in game that have the speaker icon next to their names to indicate they are using game chat will have a red X next to it. 

    Just please fix it lol. Everyone is so discouraged by this people have stopped posting in this thread because they have just given up entirely. 

  • Day one of the new season, and this issue is still not fixed for me. I have done everything they have asked, and I still cannot hear the game chat, nor can I hear anyone in the Lobby. How are we in a new season, and this issue is still happening???
