VOIP not working at all.

Hey @Klakson_rm,

Sorry to hear this issue you're experiencing.

When you said you enabled VOIP in Origin, did you make sure that your Headset is selected for the Output Device?

Also, when you are trying this, are you playing with friends? Or random teammates?

Thanks 🙂 

I don't use headset mic. Im using standalone one (Blue Yeti) + speakers. I was trying Speakers + Mic & Headphones + Mic but nothing has changed.

And I was trying both versions: with friend and random teammates.

Ok, for the first time I've heard someone's talking. Just once right now. But without any indicator on screen. And still apparently they can't hear me.

You have to set your mic as default communication device in the recording tab of the Windows sound control panel.

Facing this same issue repeatedly. Now i have had too much. Whats causing it?

It IS set as default. I can use my mic basically EVERYWHERE but Battlefield 1.

Check screenshot. It's in polish but should be easy to figure out what I want to show.

Also I don't know if it's related, but when I click (while in main menu) on HELP button (just above QUIT button) I receive message, that it didn't worked out to connect with EA Online and network options will be unavailable (smth like that). But don't actually know what does it mean since im able to play multiplayer..

I am also facing this same issue. VOIP is broken or seems not working. Any particular reasons for this?

Hey @BrianG7878,

Have you tried any of the steps in the previous posts?

Are you on PC?

If so, is your Microphone/Headset set as the default Output device in Origin?

Have you tried this out with friends to see if they can hear you, or you can hear them?

I would also click the speaker icon the bottom right of your Task Bar on your Desktop, and make sure your headset is selected as the default device.

Thanks 🙂

Yeah, now you are asking @BrianG7878 about basic stuff.. And what about me? All of this was checked before I started this thread. And still not a single idea?

@Klakson_rm It's always worth double checking when someone joins a thread, sometimes folks will see that the standard steps don't help the original poster, but they may have a different cause for their issue.

To start with, can you try a clean boot? You mention skype and Discord, sometimes if they're running they can affect how our VOIP/overlay works too.

As for your issue, can you go to your My documents\Battlefield 1\settings on your PC and open up settings.profile with notepad? You'll see a nunch of settings, including your local Voip settings for BF1. Can you post the audio contents of the file, everything before GstRender.AmbientOcclusion?

Also, when you test the microphone in Origin, does the test pick up voice activity?
