Guild Wars 2

Hello community i am here well i must confess i’m very new in this amazing MMO, i left WoW for this game and i don’t regret a bit, i just love GW2, finally i found my MMORPG.

So i’m here because, and i made a ticket about it but i didn’t have a concrete response, about an issue that like me many players seem to have…sometimes, for example now i’m the Norn starting area in the Shiverpeak Mountains, and when i’m questing or roaming around for long, long periods of time i can’t listen to a single piece o music, sometime it pops up in a event or against a veteran mob or boss but quickly goes away.

I read in the forums that many people seem to have the same issue, my pc is fine it runs the game almost at max all hardware and software is updated, i tried to twick the sound options but still no results…is there a way you guys in ArenaNet can fix this or we players? Because i enjoy the music of the games i play and in a MMO music is a must have and GW2 OST is amazingly beautifull.

Thank you for you’re attention!
Have a nice day :-)

There seem to be a number of music issues, both using the internal playlist and using the playlist feature.

1. Sometimes it gets stuck on one track (over and over).

2. Sometimes it doesn’t play anything (this happens in Orr a lot, oddly if you go underwater and resurface, it will play music again for awhile).

The particular issue you experienced is the ‘goes quiet’ thing and the reason why you got music for awhile during a fight is that there are ‘battle’ and ‘boss’ music lists that will activate but when it switches back to ‘ambient’ it will go quiet again.
