Audio popping issue

[GorthRedsteel]

I'd suggest you go be a killjoy somewhere else. FF7:Re and FF14 are made by completely different divisions in the company choking on the same Business Deal. I can fully assume it will be fixed, we just don't know when but at least people have the damn heart to try what they can to potentially expedite the process.

Cope. Enjoy waiting months for that. Oh, I hope you don't expect to see it resolved with tomorrow's patch. lel

yeah after dealing with this issue since launch of endwalker the horrible world/instance transfer system or just the ability to log on.. I have really begun to lose faith in an actual good result on these matters.

So, how many NFTs do they want us to buy before they fix their sound engine?

So I had a fluke incident where I was doing Trial Roulette, got the 6th Encounter in Stormblood(Kitty), and was still of course stuck with the sound issue. I guess in a fit of annoyance I shook my camera violently and it temporarily fixed my audio??? This isn't a blanket fix, even after no audio disruptions going into Normal Raid Roulette the sound issue came back like it never left when I entered Leveling. No matter how much I flailed the camera around in that dungeon, it may have only gotten a brief second of relief. I'm not sure if single encounters can be "fixed" with this ridiculous method across the board(Really doubt it), but its worth a desperate fleeting grasp if it can be replicated consistently.

This isn't a joke either, I don't feel like messing with people for no good reason but it happened for me and it could happen for you.

Better upgrade your hardware than to waste hours upon hours of worthless begging for devs to react.

If you have a suggestion on what to upgrade and why and what parts to use instead, I'm all ears. Apparently you seem to singlehandedly have solved the issue.

Anything that isn't 8+ years old should work, friend.

Upgrading your hardware is not a guaranteed fix - many of the people in this thread have newer machines. Don't waste your money.

We're less than seven hours from the patch going live and I somehow still have hope. If it doesn't get fixed, I'll be more than happy to fill out Elliah's survey and provide any other information that might help. I agree that sending personal letters to devs is probably excessive and not likely to have much of an impact (no matter how cathartic it may seem), though I'll be thrilled if we can make some noise on social media and the Japanese forums. In the meantime, if we're still stuck here tomorrow, keep the bug reports coming: https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...2-In-Game-Bugs Been a few days since I've seen a new one.

What was the deleted post?

It was quoted in full two posts above mine and is still there for some reason. Don't get too excited - the rest of page 70 was mostly people discussing the only obvious way to apply the suggested fix, and it didn't work.

Vast majority of players that have current gen CPUs don't have any issues related to sound. I haven't met any FX users that DO NOT have the same problem as us. It's clear - that it's either outdated processor, motherboard, or drivers for both of them. If you don't wanna wait months for devs do actually do something, the safest option would be to just buy modern hardware. Simple as that. You will have to upgrade your PC at some point in the near future as we can't be stuck in the past forever. Cleanse yourself of this pointless cope and move on.

Please do tell if upgrading hardware solved the problem for you, LUL
