Already posted this on bug reports but maybe someone can share their thoughts.
I’ve been having audio/surround sound issues since S12 (using headset). I noticed right after starting my first match. Kind of muffled sound, as if using a cheaper headset. Balancing is off, I oftentimes don’t hear enemies/footsteps right next to me, ally voicelines very quiet and not crisp even though standing next to me in some scenarios (probably when other audio cues get stacked on). Overall the balancing of the different audio tracks feels off/stacked/missing completely; directional audio not working properly (overall sound quality and direction of sound).
I’ve only ever had this happen once, last season as well. It eventually fixed itself after some time, don’t know how. Other games work fine, nevertheless reset my headset, checked all settings, everything seems normal but problem still persists. Any ideas?
Also maybe related: Cassidy’s new flash bang (last season I think) muffles my audio completely until I’m eliminated and respawn. Don’t know if I’m the only one experiencing this.
