Same here. On PS4. We started the new campaign but will wait to keep playing until this is fixed because it’s too distracting.

I guess posting in here is the only way to report a bug? I would think someone at Blizz would at least acknowledge it.

Yup yup, that distortion is pretty painful

I’m almost getting used to it, but would be nice, if it could be looked about =)

Playing from PS4 too , and your description of the precise spots, is the same as you

So far, Correlation seems to be PS4

I’m wondering, if Couch Mode is the issue, or not ( We’re playing Couch Mode here , and have the issue )

Can others share what is the situation for them?

Same problem here on PS4. With the new DLC, the sound is terrible, breaks in and out. It’s just unbearable and makes me not wanting to play the game anymore and I wish I could get a refund. I play couch co-op too most of the time.

Apparently the problem occurs not only while in new content areas or activities. I tried doing Helltide in Fractured Peaks, and the same problem occurs especially when engaging mobs. This is just frustrating. It must be some problem with the game DLC on PS4, which Blizzard needs to test and fix ASAP! I’m really looking forward to a fix/patch for PS4 soonest.

I experience the same issue, but playing solo. So, my guess, it is not co-op specific related. I do play on PS4 too.

It really takes away the fun of playing the game unfortunately.

PS4. Definitely, not a couch mode problem. Not even changing the sound settings worked, except turning sound down ingame made it barely managable, when i played last. The hotfix did not fix it?

Same here, couch coop mode on PS4, both playing spiritborn. Doesn’t seem to affect previous characters that are now in eternal realm.

Same sound issue as the rest. Couch co-op eternal realm. I moved all over the map and was having the same sound issues. I even turned down the “sound effects” volume… still making that terrible sound when fighting mobs. Unplayable in is current form. Come on Blizzard… we all paid hard earned money for this… why wasn’t this tested for bugs?

I’m going to try to find a work around today. I’m guessing it will be muting the music and ambience, letting sound effects through then play my own music. Hard to play diablo without sound effects I have come to discover.

Same issues for me and my wife (couch coop players too)

Also. How is it none of the youtube users are talking about this??

Blizz treats the PS4 like the problem Step Child. I can only assume we’re last on any list. But Like I said, it would be really if Blizz actually recognized the problem and at least mentioned it.
