Ashantara.8731 Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 (edited) Most of the music in Strikes is cut off, only parts are playing. Noticed this in IBS and Aetherblade Hideout today (the latter only plays the music during the bomb phase in CM). Edit: Also affected are Fractals and Raids! @Rubi Bayer.8493, are the devs aware?

Ashantara.8731 Posted September 11 Author Share Posted September 11 Has no one else here noticed? At least one other player in my squad confirmed this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultra Tron.2306 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 (edited) I'm having the exact issue. What kind of headphones are you using? The issue started with me yesterday. btw, even raids are having the same issue. When you are near the boss music just stops.

Ultra Tron.2306 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 (edited) It appears that it is a proximity-related issue. once you are near the boss the music just stops, when you are far it plays normally. Look here on Sabetha, while she ported away from the main platform I'm having no issues. But once she is back to the main platform the music stops.

None, unless I play with other people on voice chat. I have a set of Creative stereo speakers. It is not a hardware or software issue, it is a "ANet broke something" issue. 😉 12 hours ago, Ultra Tron.2306 said: It appears that it is a proximity-related issue. once you are near the boss the music just stops, when you are far it plays normally.

I hope this will get fixed. Very weird bug indeed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean Calaway.9718 Posted Friday at 10:01 AM Share Posted Friday at 10:01 AM Check your in game settings, make sure sound quality is not on low, at low it cuts half the dialog and some music. If it's not on low, try to set it to low then high again see if it gets unstuck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bish.8627 Posted Saturday at 12:59 AM Share Posted Saturday at 12:59 AM Oddly enough, I have been noticing in some places my music dips out and comes back lower volume, I thought it was some other players effect, but it just happened sat with just 3 other players who didnt use anything. This has happened mostly in Divinity's reach, but it just happened to me in a guild hall too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geronmy.3298 Posted Saturday at 02:39 AM Share Posted Saturday at 02:39 AM (edited) This has been happening to me since the expansion launched. Music randomly cuts out and even dialogue in cutscenes does the same. Not that big of a deal for me but just wanted to post it anyway. 16 hours ago, Dean Calaway.9718 said: Check your in game settings, make sure sound quality is not on low, at low it cuts half the dialog and some music.

Ultra Tron.2306 Posted Monday at 08:08 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:08 PM (edited) So after a few days living with this bug, I noticed that not every wing actually suffers from this. W1 is fully affected by it W2 is fine except for Matthias above 40% for some reason. W3, W4, W5 and I think W6 is also affected. not sure about W7 AH and XJJ suffer. OLC, HT, KO are fine. Not sure about ToF and CO Edited Monday at 09:06 PM by Ultra Tron.2306 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Forestman.4758 Posted Monday at 08:43 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:43 PM It seems to be related to fights where the music changes dynamically with what phase the boss is in (i.e. in Sunqua Peak, the music will be gone throughout the elemental portion of the boss fight where it usually has certain beats it hits as certain things happen, but in the dark half of the CM fight the music will return because it doesn't change with phases there) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minh.1892 Posted Monday at 09:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:21 PM Can confirm this being a thing. First i thought it may be some files that got corrupted while updating the game. Starting the -repair option didnt work either. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta Dawn.4970 Posted Tuesday at 08:10 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:10 PM This has been happening to me in raids for the last couple weeks - music will fade in for about 10 seconds sometimes, but is generally silent. I noticed it specifically in w1-w4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timey.6853 Posted yesterday at 12:20 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:20 AM I'll also submit that this doesn't just happen in instanced combat, but also open world bosses and events as well where the music changes. I've had this happen at Triple Trouble and Shadow Behemoth just to name a couple. Interestingly, I've noticed that sometimes it seems to fade in and out if I move back and forth, as though the music gets locked to a certain location and its 'source' isn't always moving with the player properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
