Sound problems making the game unplayable :(

The game starts off fine, without issues, but as soon as I leave character creation and the first cut scene starts, the audio becomes so crackly that it's genuinely impossible to listen to. It happens in the cut scene, and in gameplay, and the only times it doesn't happen are in menus. I've tried disabling enhancements, spacial sound, etc. and every other fix I could find, but none of them worked. Updating drives also didn't work. The problem doesn't exist in any other game or application, so it's not my headphones. Hopefully it gets fixed soon because it's super overwhelming :(

    Same. I've exhausted every possible fix, made sure my headphones weren't the problem, etc. I really hope this gets a fix soon because the game is 100% unplayable right now.

    Hey, same problem here , tried the same things as you...didn't fix anything for me too, if you find something share it

    thanks

  • I've rolled back drivers, even bought a usb extension cable because my Bluetooth is just a USB drive that has worked perfect on everything else. No Dice! I've just given up on it.

  • I got a new GeForce graphics driver update and that *sort of* helped. The audio is still very crunchy whenever I'm in a heavily populated area or when there is a lot of ambient noise, like in Arlathan. It is less constant now though, so it's at least playable, but there are definitely still very annoying audio issues.
