i reported this on PTS server also at least a week before the release.. and they didnt care.

I also get horrible noise in Ops like KP on the droid.. as the fight starts there is a lot of static, then it fades out.

There are times when i will be fighting and just lose all battle sounds.. but i still hear footsteps etc.

and since 1.2 hit.. it sounds like all my pets are off in a whirlpool somewhere.. and my lightsaber sounds like a damn chainsaw... aka really LOUD..

hoping for a fix.. but not expecting anything anytime soon... as a true bioware customer should be.

Bioware - Can you give us some feedback please? It is not fun being in the dark on this. It''s even more frustrating seeing you talk about Jawas and diseases and new mounts when I cannnot enjoy any of it with my sound off.

One more problem (in addition to all above): companions comments are gone during space missions. You only hear the voice of your character.

The sound fading in and out, turning off and on during cut scenes, randomly becoming loud... it's game breaking given this game has built itself around the immersion into the stories. While running the repair function fixes the problem for me, its only short term and soon returns. I can't understand why, after all this time, with the effect this is having.... all I've seen is, "run the repair". Seriously? That's it? You've had weeks looking at this. Some of the errors have existed for months. This is not a minor bug, please treat it, and more importantly, us... with more respect.

I love how this isn't even listed in the known issues sticky post.


THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IT SUCKS! FIX IT!

But defininetly get the below working first, because it's game-breaking that I have to login as one of my characters to add them as ally in the meaningly family tree BS:

LegacyEach character on an account must be logged in individually before they will appear on the Legacy Family Tree.

From a CSR in another thread:

Quote:
Greetings All,

We are currently investigating the sound issues.

DarthMondo, you can email support@swtor.com with your dxdiag attached.

Thank you for this, the more information we have, the faster we can get this fixed.

Note that some sound issues that players have experienced can be resolved by running the repair function on the launcher. It may help to try this.

So if they are investigating the issue....why is it not listed in the known bugs sticky?

Original thread for those interested.

Happened with patch 1.2
Good to see I'm not the only one having this issue. Only work-around I've found is re-logging. :/
