Voice chat is STILL NOT WORKING!!! What the flyin' fux?!? This is supposed to be a squad based game, what's the point if you can't communicate with your squad? I'm trying not to be mad because the game is free, but come on this is ridiculous.
I have played at least 50 games, every game hoping that it'll just start working, yet I've had only 1 single game where I could hear my teammates. I see their icon all the time, but no sound. I switch over to play COD, and it's working perfectly. EA..... WTFF?
I've followed all suggested fixes in this thread and a few others I was able to find in other threads on the net. Why is this not working? Someone, please give a fix that you KNOW will work.
EDIT: I am on original Xbox One, using cheap in-ear headphones through the 3.5mm jack on controller. Spectrum is my provider.
- 6 years agoSo I rang the EA help line and they told me it was a one-off problem and then told me they had technical problems and could not help me !!!!!!!!

Wow...Pretty messed up, definitely not a one-off problem. It's a serious problem. I guess they've fixed it for enough people that the few hundred/thousand/ 10s of thousands of people that are left aren't worth fixing it for? Truth is, they'll make money off the game whether they fix it for those people (us) or not, and that's why it's no hurry. We know they're making bank off this game daily, so why mess with a good thing. It would be like putting super-soft toilet paper in a public bathroom for the few people that hate the regular toilet paper: simply not gonna happen.
For now I'm back to playing COD, which I actually don't like as much as Apex Legends. Sad state, but we gotta live in it.

I agree.
Last night one match audio worked. The people on the game were like, "someone is talking!!" I explained the issue and they said, "AH HA! WE see that icon all the time, but no audio."
Come on EA. Whats the deal!?!? - 6 years ago
Been playing since day one and have used pinging well, but I’m definitely get the feeling I’m missing out in something my not being able to listen in on the team chatter.
A couple days ago I was playing and got absolutely owned by a squad who did a coordinated attack on us while we were in a building. There’s no way you could hope to use pings to achieve that level of coordination. How are you supposed to compete against that without team chat working?
