Variablemania Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Hello! Since patch 16.1.6 the overall sound of the game entire computer becomes quieter whenever I'm in a squad. I've tested this by entering liset navigation & missions with multiple network modes(public, friends, invite only, solo) switched in multiple orders, and the only time this sound issue occurs is when I am part of a squad with a squad chat tab. Solo mode, which doesn't make me a squad & by extension doesn't give me a squad chat tab, causes no sound issues. Even when I don't enter navigation, merely hitting the invite button & bringing up the list of invitable players while in a network mode other than solo puts me in a squad and the sound becomes quieter.

nickelshark Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I have noticed this too. I will be playing music and it will suddenly get quieter when joining a squad or lobby as you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound from an application outside of Warframe is affected too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelshark Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Sound from an application outside of Warframe is affected too? I haven't tested it with other applications but I know for sure Itunes is affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variablemania Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) I haven't tested it with other applications but I know for sure Itunes is affected. I JUST tried streaming a grooveshark song through firefox while entering & exiting squad status in liset navigation and it does indeed affect sound from the entire computer and not just the Warframe application; It's system-wide! Edited this new info into the op. Edited April 1, 2015 by Variablemania Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitresco Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) For those experiencing this "bug", do you have your computer's sound settings set to reduce volume when recieving voice communications?I experienced the same issue myself up until I disabled this option.

Variablemania Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Didn't come across this bug while using a usb headset; it still occurs using normal speakers. For those experiencing this "bug", do you have your computer's sound settings set to reduce volume when recieving voice communications?I experieced the same issue myself up until I disabled this option. Windows is set to 'Do nothing' when it detects communications activity. The other options are reducing sound by 50% & 80%, and muting all other sounds. The in game audio settings has voice disaled.
