Rptd: Can't hear enemy gunfire and engine sounds

[CBRattler13 0]

# I have:

• Restarted the game: yes

• Cleared the cache: yes

• Checked game integrity: yes

• Disabled custom content: yes

# Game version

My game version: (2.13.0.27) Winged Lions

# Description

Most of the time I can't hear enemy engine sounds and gunfire during Ground RB matches.

# Steps to reproduce the issue

1. (Take any ground vehicle into battle)

2. (Try to listen for enemy vehicles when there are other noises going on, such as aircraft overhead)

# Additional Information

The problem started after the Red Skies update. Since then, it has fluctuated where it sometimes happens to now where its every battle. There are several Reddit posts that discussed the same problems I was having. I know that website isn't a good source when it comes to issues for this game, at least they were talking about issues I am experiencing. As of 12/17/2021, I haven't seen any other posts about this issue. However, yesterday or the day before (I don't remeber), I met a player who was also having sound issues. Whether they were the same as mine or different, I don't know because I didn't ask.

# Affected vehicles

• (Any ground vehicle I've played. Puma, T-34/85 and Strv 31 to name a few. Vehicles in picture is the Churchill Gun Carrier (Me) and a French Crusader Mk.II (Enemy))

Have you ever used a player created sound mod?

 

IF so,  Please post your config.blk file for review.

 

Can you also see if there is an updated driver for your sound system.  The one you have currently is from 2020.

Thanks

I never use custom sounds. After I made the report, I did update all drivers related to sound, but it didn't fix the problem.
