I switched back to bf4 'cause.. bf5 is a bullet-sponge right now and every SAR is kinda broken.. but back to topic.
the bug described above is also occurring in bf4! probably this is an engine wide bug and happening in every frostbite engine title.. sw bf2 got same
the missing VOIP is really annoying. I hope the devs gonna take care soon.
What just happened.
Myself on an artic steel headset but I watched this morning some news about the new years aftermath on a speaker USB box. (simple logitech Z)
I switched to headphones and start playing BFV.. Then all in game chat (Squad chats) are on this USB box. When I unplug it all sounds back on headset.
Windows settings 100% sure ok.. Origin settings 100% ok...
It must be something with the engine...
Can we get a fix of the VOIP-squad chat at least? I see the indicator my squad mates are talking.. but I do not hear them. Has this issue been pushed forward to the devs..? how long does this take to be resolved? please not again several months... already waiting so long....
DICE Teamthanks for your effort @EA_Atic - but you probably misunderstood the bug occurrence - or did you read the other replies to this ticket? and did this? I doubt.
Quote from the other post:
The video I made is attached to this ticket #50641776 - here is the link - I doubt you ll be able to access it without being part of the support team https://help.ea.com/en/my-cases/?id=5002S0000156mQTQAY Im not able to attach the video to this reply... Idk why.. no error msg is popping up, its just refusing and redirecting me to the answer. press win+r and type: ms-settings:apps-volume this will open an application list. Windows saves the correct sound device; but its not chosen by battlefield/battlefront/etc.. Other applications are working; so it must be a bug in the game engine. So each time I start a game I have to tab out and reset the device..... but for ~3-4 months the VOIP module isnt changing the device anymore.. as result; I dont hear anyone!
@flyinghorse101 had a similar behaviour. So sorry but it is not working. I have it each time I play a frostbite title. It is not working. Everything is configured properly. I have sound in ts3/hangouts/teams/discord. The sound device is not simply switching to the correct device. => Bug.
//edit:// even windows saves the correct sound device and I have to tab out to reset it each time is the main reason for this issue .. I already mentioned it above. Also in the tickets I made via the ticketsystem... 😞
//edit2:// I already explained this to you ( @EA_Atic ) in the star wars bf2 bug report. this is also linked above.
