Hey Txema. Make sure you check your audio settings and ensure that your ‘Dialog Volume’ slider is turned up to a level where you can hear NPC chatter and voice-over. If you need to, you can also hit the ‘Restore Defaults’ button to restore all your audio defaults.

If all else fails, try running a -repair command on your client shortcut.


For Windows Users:

  1. Make sure you create a shortcut to your Gw2.exe file. This can be placed anywhere on your computer.
  2. Right-click the shortcut, and type " -repair" (without the quotes at the end of the Target line. It should look something like: C:\Games\Gw2Dev\Gw2Dev.exe -repair
  3. Hit ‘OK’, and run the client. It should automatically check and repair any damaged files.
  4. Remove the -repair flag once it has finished, then try running the client normally. If this does not solve the problem, be sure to provide as much information as possible in the crash window.

Good luck! =)

It’s NOT a technical problem (this is the bugs forum), it began with the previous patch, i repaired (-repair) the game (all perfect), i checked the audio settings (all correct, see attachment) and i asked on map and guild chat, it’s a common problem, so please look at this or at least tell me i’m not going crazy and this is not some delusion i have since last patch.

Thanks.

Thank you for the screenshot which describes that you are not playing the game using English text, which is information that is relevant to the nature of the bug. The problem is that having your voice set to use the same language as your text (which does not exist, we do not currently support Spanish VO at all—even though the UI would suggest otherwise), then the game is now defaulting to not playing any voice at all instead of defaulting to English VO.

As a workaround in the interim, please set your audio language to use English (or French or German if you prefer), restart the game client, and you will get VO back.

Same issue here, after this patch if you have the game in Spanish the game select automaticly the Spanish/ Text Selected in Audio option wich dont exist.

In F11 General Options select Text Language in Spanish , and change Audio Language to English and work ok again.

… Ok i didn’t see that change in the patch notes (i know there are no spanish voice, i had english voice selected), please document this kind of changes in future releases, i bet you got a few tickets and reports of bugs on this matter that you could have avoided.

Thanks.

All my VO turned off. For some reason it automatically changed my Voice language to Spanish during the previous patch.

I’ve had this problem for several weeks every other day, but restarting the game fixes it. Eventually all audio disappears except for ambient noise, like water or wind. Playing with English text and audio.

But like I said, restarting the game fixes it.
