@EA_Mako @EA_David
Could you please look into this issue as it is a bug, spread across every platform, thanks.
Thanks for the tip, but someone else posted this same issue and EA responded without being tagged. Then, EA stopped responding at all. So it seems they don't need to be tagged and it didn't matter because they ignore you anyway :-(
The post I'm taking about is titled
BUG: Dialogue audio cuts off sometimes
- 4 years ago
I think this bug is a side effect of the way the devs programmed the game.
Which is the worst way to make game audio in my opinion.
I notice when i play that whenever a companion starts to talk, and you are walking and run into another NPC that starts talking, that the first one (companion in this case) audio cuts out.
I think this is intentional behaviour to make sure you can follow what's being said, and if so, it's ofcourse a bad decision cause our brain is wired to filter out secondary noises that where not paying attention too.
So they made a bad decision there, the game should play up to 8 conversations simultaneously if need be, not just the one.
And i suspect that this rigorous mandatory only 1 NPC may talk programming is causing issues with audio cutting out in conversations.
It might also just be a setting in a ini file somewhere that lets the game mux multiple conversations, but i suspect it's intentionally programmed, and a buggy routine.
Shame that once gamedevs earned enough money on a product, that they really don't care anymore with fixing their bugs.
They seem to fix some bugs in the first month, and after that they don't bother anymore it seems.
And i must also conclude that so far the Legendary Edition is 100x more buggy than the original trilogy, i never had any weird thing happening in OT,
while in LE it's a myriad of bugs i'm encountering, not worth the hassle imo, you're better of playing OT with mods.- 4 years ago@GALB I solved the audio bug by going into Devices, Sound, video and game controllers.. and manually updated my audio drivers.
Went back into the game.. and the bug was gone.- 4 years ago@Manic-Vyper Thanks, i'll try that, see if it works for me too !
