Guild Wars 2

Like the title says, when I’m in a large battle like in dragon battles or in WvW battles, the sounds stops working and an intermittent sound appears. The only fix is to restart the game.

I don’t know how to describe this sound, it’s a little like when you’re trying to call someone but it’s out of the connection.

Other things I noticed when this happens:
-even with the option to mute GW2 when it’s in the background, it doesn’t mute that sound.
Edit: – reducing master volume, or any other thing on the sound settings, doens’t work.

Same here. Sounds like a tinnitus and only comes out of the left speaker. After 10 seconds or so the game crashes. Since this only happens in large scale battles it makes getting a chest/any loot, or even any medal, nigh on impossible because the server is lagging too much to do enough damage in the remaining time/boss health.

I don’t have crashes though. I just have to wait for it to end or play with no sound, which is annoying. But your problem seems to be even worse. There was a video on youtube that showed this sound issue but I can’t seem to find it again.

Either not that many people are plagued by the same problem or they just don’t care. Regardless the list of threads per page needs to be a lot longer.

same prob here.

It is the exact same issue. Thanks for letting us know, Ashley.
