Audio popping issue

[Timidity]

Yeah the problem has been heard after 20 days of silence. Imagine when they are gonna release a fix if they JUST NOW started researching the issue - if they even end up succeeding. For now enjoy having to play through the game in silence, I'm sure that's gonna help you get invested in the story of it.

At least it has been heard of and it will be addressed. You are very much skeptical, and I do understand, but you are very much underestimating Square... You are free to take a break if its really bothering you and come back later

Imagine defending a company that has released a damaged product that you had to buy. Maybe the audio issue isn't as bad at your end but for me it's horrendous. Even Blizzard wouldn't dare to fuck up this badly - maybe that's why PTR and BETA are worth the hassle, huh? Don't mind me though, it's forbidden to point out obvious mistakes of SE as they are the new saviours of the genre as some would like to proclaim. I'd love to be proven wrong but somehow I just know it's gonna take em forever to solve this bug.

I mean expansion launch as any other has its issues, and its apparent that you are new here, and there have been issues before on other launches as well, and most ,if not all have been addressed and resolved. I do not know what policy Blizzard these days have when it comes to resolving the issues with their own game, but I am positive it is not the same as here. Fair enough tho and I hope they fix it so you can continue in your journey pal

I don't see things to be very promising either.
All we had was just another comment that gives more importance to our system specs than to the game engine itself.
It really seems they haven't still understood the problem and aren't giving much importance to it, whether or not it's because of more urgent matters related to server overload.
The reality is we got no real perspective to an early fix, or of a response to the legacy sound option request.

I think I've done my part. I've already submitted my system specs via 2 different channels, been very active here in the forums discussing the problem in attempt of a solution, even wrote a thread in Japanese, and now I got kinda tired, not to say disappointed.

It's hard to leave a game that's been part of my life for 2 years, and that I was so excited to follow the story, not to mention the frustration of having spent so much money in a expansion that was VERY expensive in my country and not be able to play it. And, besides everything, the perspective of exploring the expansion as new together with the player community is already lost.

I can't tell if SE is neglecting us or if they really don't have the time/resources to look into this, but at this point, it doesn't matter anymore to me.
I really believe we'll be, patch after patch starting 6.05 on Jan 4th, hoping to see it was fixed just to see it was not, until someday, months from now, when we'll either finally have a miracle fix, or a note telling us they finally realized they can't do anything about this.

I'll be very happy if you're right and I'm really underestimating SquareEnix, but I'm kind of resigned.
Although, it's personally sad to me, I'll just leave this matter be, play other things, focus on other things in life, and if I hear this was fixed, I might return to the game.

As far as I'm aware as I've stated in one of the posts before, all the issues that have been a part of the game in the past have been resolved in time orderly manner, I sincerely doubt you will have to wait for so long as you've said. I understand the frustration but do not give in
