TheGreatBB Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Okay, so there was a hotfix that happened recently that fixed my problem with a memory leak and lag when I'm in an extended play time instance. It was great. I don't get lag like I used to unless I'm in a host issue, as it should be, but... Now I have an audio issue around the time I used to get the FPS lag. I think the memory leak fix worked for one part, but caused the audio to start doing it. It starts off light, but progressively starts to distort more and more. At first I thought it was a specific gun my clanmate was leveling, but it happens when I'm in any instance 10+ long, even solo. I'm not sure how to describe the sound and I'll try to get an capture next time I'm in a long instance for you to hear, but yeah... Anyone else experiencing this issue? It could be my onboard sound or the fact I play sound through my HDMI to TV, but it didn't happen before. It's like lag for audio, while video works fine. Which was reverse before the patch.

Urlan Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I have had this happen when using faster firing weapons like the Gorgon series, Soma series, and Supra. Occassionally even the Grakata series will cause crackling and distortion when fired enough. One commonality is that every time it happened there was a Loki warframe user in the team though they were not the light machine gun sprayer of course.

TheGreatBB Posted January 13, 2016 Author Share Posted January 13, 2016 I tried to get a reproduction today, but my internet was acting up and I was lagging overall. I'll try again tomorrow. I don't think the two are related. I have had this happen when using faster firing weapons like the Gorgon series, Soma series, and Supra.

The first time I noticed it, I was on Ember Prime and my clan mate was Rhino using the Quanta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urlan Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I have also experienced it yesterday, when getting hit by mutalist tar and trying to continue firing faster weapons, the sound very noticeably starts distorting and bleeding together causing continued gunfire to start lagging the game and corrupting audio for sometimes the rest of the mission.

SubjectL Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Whilst playing, i was not able to get it happening, It did happen once when i logged in, but i was unable to get it on video since i logged in just to get my daily reward >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatBB Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 I've ran a few survivals today and couldn't reproduce the bug. It might have something to do with a specific weapon type and 10+ minutes or a recent patch fixed whatever was broken in a previous build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urlan Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 As of update 18.3.0, the throwing melee explosion sound when doing the triggered explosions also triggers sound distortions. Repeated use causes fps drop and eventual bleeding into other sounds. Before 18.3.0, I didn't get the sound distortion when allies used the faster firing weapons like the Soma, Supra and Gorgon but now allies firing also causes the distortion for other players. Seems especially prone when fighting enemies with large amounts of layered sounds like the Infested and Grineer who also use similar weapons.
