Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if it’s just me but I’ve been noticing that SOME combat sound effects don’t seem to play now and then.

For example, I can always hear my sword swinging and what not… but when the attack hits my opponent, there isn’t any sound for that. Same for when I’m attacked. It’s kind of weird and off putting.

I’ve only really noticed it since the latest patch.

Anyone else seem to have this problem?

this is happening for me since closed beta. It seems like in certain situations the client takes forever to load combat soundfiles or doesn’t load them at all, especially when you rapidly jump from mob to mob with shadowstep or something.

I played around with the soundquality settings or mixing buffer size setting but it doesn’t seem to have any effect on this issue.

it’s not game breaking, but a very annonying issue. I quite like the sounds in gw2 and this kills the immersion very often.

I was looking around the web for a fix but not much luck there.
