i did twice, no changes. Weird, when i first enter a dungeon with the new dungeon finder, all the sounds before teleporting were still audible in the dungeon and in i had no footstep sounds too.

I think, my sounds are broken since i was teleported to the dungeon, thx for the update! :frowning:

Here to bump. If I notice sound issues ill add another post.

Pretty much the entire ambient tracks are missing or muted. All the ones you mentioned, all of the instruments, etc.

Ack! That’s no good… I love hearing the sound within New World. Unfortunately, I’m hearing the same thing ingame and I’ve let the team know!

This certainly sounds like a game issue, however, I will share something that happened to me about 2 patches ago. All of a sudden, sounds were not as loud as they used to be, and I was turning my volume way up to hear anything. I figured the in-game volume settings had been reset, but nothing seemed to fix the problem. Checked out my various sound control options on my computer and could not find anything.

Eventually, I tracked it down to the “loudness equalization” enhancement effect on my speakers being disabled. I assume this was from some Windows update, not related to the game, but the issue sounds so similar to what is being described here that I think it’s worth mentioning.

I found the setting by:

  1. Right-click on the speaker icon in the system tray
  2. Click “sounds”, this will open a window
  3. Select the “playback” tab
  4. Scroll down through the list of playback devices until you find the speakers your computer uses
  5. Left-click on those speakers and hit the “properties” button in the lower right.
  6. In the resulting pop-up, select the “enhancements” tab.
  7. Scroll down in the window and ensure the “Loudness Equalization” box is checked.
  8. OK/apply your way out of the various windows.

Again, this is probably not the issue, but worth checking, IMO.
