Since last ow update ig, I have this voicechat error, earlier I played with my friends using vc on my PC and there were no problems at all. Last 12 hours I’ve been trying to fix that with a wide list of guides - starting with official ones and endin’ with some random videos from the Enternet. Most common of them were: - update ur OS, - update ur mic and sound devices software, - remove user settings from OW, - check ur input and output settings, - reinstall the game, - change names of ur in and output devices, - turn off other apps that could use mic (e.g. nvidia), - Turn on/off VPN just in case, - change DNS-server to some basic google servers, - excluded OW2 from my antivirus control and parental control as well. I did all of that. Nothing happened, is there any way I could get an opportunity to hear my teammates? I really start to think I got some shadow ban or smth. Just help me plz
upd. Last day OW2 used microphone according to my sistem info is 9th Jan 2026 if this matters
upd. I FIXED IT
