Did your squad mates also experience the issue? No
How many matches had you played in a row before the issue occurred? none. After this most recent update my audio has been distorted. I have switched headsets AND controllers. I also updated my controller software, restated my xbox, and uninstalled and reinstalled my game.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 03/29/2022 at 9:30pm eastern standard and 03/30/2022 12:01am eastern standard
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? My audio is very distorted. it sounds very echoey and it reverberates. it sounds somewhat electronic if that makes sense. This happens both in the lobby and during a game. The audio doesn't sound as crisp as it did before the update. I've tested out other games to rule out my headphones and other games work just fine so it seems to be centralized to Apex. I'm not sure how else to describe the audio other than distorted and echoey. Imagine a thin piece of aluminum that you are wiggling back and forth. I'm not sure if that makes sense but that's the only thing I can really compare it to. I have no spacial audio as well. I can't tell which way a person is coming from. I have looked through all of my audio settings on my xbox and everything looks normal. I DO NOT have the mono audio setting on.
What should be happening instead? No echo
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Have an Xbox series x I'm guessing.
