Since the Nov 15 surprise launch of Halo Infinite multiplayer I don’t hear sounds outside my virtual helmet. I can hear my teammates chatter and gun fire but I can’t hear incoming enemy fire, the damage from enemy fire, vehicles, grenades. I can hear sounds generated by my character model. Trying to play with zero audio cues from where danger is coming from is extremely frustrating! Makes it worse when ive bought the battle pass and pre ordered the campaign.
Things I’ve tried to fix the “no enemy audio issue”: Reinstalled video drivers, updated all drivers from motherboards webpage, updated video drivers clean install, UPDATED TO WINDOWS 11!, updated my asus strix raid sound card, tried the game from the motherboards audio jack external speakers and headphones, reinstalled Halo infinite multiplayer, ran command SFC/scannow. Tried it on my asus Zephyrus with ryzen 5900x and 3070 same issue.
Other people have the issue and don’t realize it. in game I can tell other players have it cause like me they get snuck up on all the time! (By me) Please fix this issue. Ive tried the “Low audio from the side or behind” known issue guide. Nothing. This issue is far more severe than that known issue. like I said I cant hear vehicles running over my dead body in the “Death cam”. Im really proud of what this Halo is technically and proud its deserving of the mainstream attention and praise like in the early 2000’s golden era which makes this audi issue all the more unpleasant! I really enjoy playing but when I die and had no audio cue I tell myself I cant play this. Ive been a halo fan for over 20 years now. I read the books, draw, collect, painted my xbox to resemble the unsc colors.
