Guild Wars 2

Often while running along, the foot steps sound will cut out. Anywhere between 5-15 seconds. Also sometimes other random sounds such as attack sounds randomly disappearing very briefly, especially during larger battles.

You can find posts addressing these issues over in Game Bugs, as well as the Audio sub-forum.

Good luck.

Sometimes I hear a loud, frightening roar while in wxw zerg fights. Like a dragon roar xD.

Very funny, and i never know why does that happen.

Audio lag and drop out has pretty much been an issue since Beta. I’ve tried playing around with the sound settings, even turning quality etc. to minimum and it makes no difference. GW2 is the only game I have where I experience these issues.

I’m not sure if it’s down to the game engine struggling to manage all the assets (both sound and visual) in one go, or if a lot of the sound assets are being streamed from the server for some reason rather than loaded off the HDD.
