BF3 Audio Drop Problem (PS3)

Hello,

I have noticed this for a while now but randomly while playing in the game the audio will drop to the point that I can only hear my own character and nothing else around me (gunfire,helicopters,bases that are armed, etc.) I contacted EA before and they did respond saying that I have to delete my BF3 file under game saved utility and disable my media server, which I did but I still have the problem.

I did some research on youtube and I have found a video that related to my problem except that in the video, the player loses the sound and can hear everything around him and in my problem I can hear myself but not the things around me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VfXbZ_9uCXQ&feature=related

Also, when I notice that my audio drops, my friends notice it too at the same time. My connection is fine so I know that it isnt that but would this mean that its a issue with the servers?

    I've had this happen to me as well, and I believe my squad mates at the same time. As far as I know, there isn't a way to fix it and it likely relates to the synchronization of the data being sent to the users, and since this happened to us in squads (personally, I've never experienced this outside of a squad), it seems to be exclusive to users in a squad. 

    So, yes, it seems to be on the servers end and, unfortunately I don't think we can do anything to fix it.

    Sorry I couldn't help, but at least you know you're not the only one😕mileywink:.

    Thats the most logical thing ive heard. I contacted ea and they just gave me a list of stuff to try that diddnt work. HOPEFULLY there will be a patch for this sometime soon! they should stop and take the time to fix these bugs!
