Sometimes when i join voice chat in a new group I can gear everyone talking but then I realise they can’t hear me back. Either they are stuck with mute or I am when i check (the mic is crossed out and I cant uncross it in voice channels) . I have to resort to leaving and rejoining to the vc until it works again. This one isnt gamebreaking but its really annoying.
This could be happening for a number of reasons.
- Security programs blocking access to the mic
- Necessary ports for voice chat not forwarded on router
- Poor connection quality, which results in lowering the priority of voice chat data
- Parental controls on Windows
- Sound driver not working properly at start of game
