Refuel - Sound Issues

Post » Wed Sep 30, 2009 4:05 pm

On the map "Refuel" after the inital intro and maybe a 10-15 second grace period all sound stops working. This happens for every single person on the server and persists until the map ends and a new one starts when all the sound immediately starts to work again.

I'm hoping this is just a simple bit of bugged coding and not something that was shipped as a core design problem. Not going to ask if anyone else has this cause i know people are they just haven't realised it's specifically that map or haven't posted about it.

Here's hoping someone from SD reads this and can have it put into a patch by tonight.

Thank you for mentioning this. The same thing happens to me and, as it has been stated, everyone else on the server. Game runs great on my PC, except for this.

Pretty sure I posted about this a few days ago too in a thread I started on the issue. Trying to find it to see if anyone mentioned anything about a fix. I've pulled it out of the map rotation on our server for now.

it's on more than just refuel. can't be specific right now though. and the game seems to hate alt-tabbing. i'll have to use the dreaded pen and paper

Ya got this issue as well, it happens pretty fast like you said 10-15 but it almost seems like once a sound is played once it can never play again after that and eventually you end up with no sound at all. Only happens on Refuel for me too.

Not everyone is having this issue though, which points to hardware conflicts.

Same with crysis 2 they released a patch for all with logitech G35 (perhaps for Razers megallon also) when both are in Usb no sound at all. Was conflict because xbox360 use handcontroll in usb.
Would be nice to see what answer we getting for this.

I've tried to fix this issue myself by restarting the sound system via game console( forces the game to re-detect the sound device) but the fix only works for a few seconds until the sounds disappears again which makes it useless. Anyway, perhaps reloading the sounds might work but the game has that command Cheat protected while trying to access it in Multi-Player mode.

Anyway, there's nothing we can do to stop this from happening atm, will just have to wait for the next patch.
