On PC this problem can be fixed by procedure:
- Switch to borderless mode
- Click on any running app on your PC
- Reconnect headphones
- Back to the game in borderless mode
- If no success, try 1-4 to moment when a game won't change sound settings.
It's a very annoying thing.
I figured out the problem(described here:WH-1000XM3 can only use Stereo OR Hands-Free but NOT BOTH over Bluetooth | Why high-end wireless headphones with headset functionality are UNUSABLE on Windows 10 : sony (reddit.com) ).
The problem itself is related to drivers inside headphones. For example, Windows sucks in context switching of input & output so it's resulting in poor quality of sound because of switching to microphone settings. Most of the problem is related to the microphone, BF2042 uses it, and the microphone driver takes precedence. On other hand iPhone & android doing it well and so on.
- @Xeinaemm But we all use wired headphones. Cable's speed is more than enough to make both microphone and speakers work well.
@EA_Atic so are looking for this problem? Coming back to BFV and hearing A LOT BETTER audio quality than in 2042 is pretty weird, isn't it?
It is not even the problem with positioning. It is hard to know from where bullets or vehicles coming, but pretty ok. The main problem is sound QUALITY. I watched few clips and videos from pc platform, and sound quality was pretty decent. Playing on ps5 sound feels like it was recorded in SD-quality. Especially it is noticable on some reloading animations and pretty all of explosions.
I have an example with SWS-10
You can clearly hear how bad tactical reload sounds, while the one with empty ammo is okay (but still not as good as it could be)
