    Not enough sound channels

    No forum for sound, so its going here (definitely not general).

    When too many different sounds are going off at once, it sounds horrible and a lot of sounds are just canceled out for newer ones. It's really bad during big fates and around market board areas where a lot of people are crafting at once. Ther also aren't any in-game settings for this.

    Tho, unless others are not experiencing this, it may just be my own sound hardware. Logitech G930 headset.

    Nope, I experience this as well, and not even in crowded areas. Lightly populated, but high action areas will start cutting out sounds for me.

    I noticed this the other night while doing a particularly chaotic FATE. Not enough polyphony. Sound effects were getting clipped.

    Experienced mainly during Behemoth... But there were so many people I could not render him... Which I feel is a bigger issue :/
