Weird Static Noise
I've been hearing this weird static noise while playing the game, but here is the thing i'ts only when playing, when i'm in menus, settings, inventory etc. no static, even when choosing radio stations no static, but when you play the game there is this annoying static sound as if it's like radio interference , i seriously need help, any ideas ?

Is it there all the time, or just sometimes?

There is this odd noise sometimes...like, a radio that's badly tuned....you can almost hear a voice sometimes, but its like they are too far away?

That's netrunners.
Behind the H8, I've heard it, I tried turning off the power (up by the dead admin guy) from the circuit breaker box, but not, it kept being there.
Then, later on I used cameras to hack a bunch of maelstrom guys.
One was a runner, up on top of this huge round gas tower. That sound was there, but only when I was pointing the camera directly at him.
That's when I realised I was coming from Netrunner NPC's
( I had enough ram to hack everyone BUT him lol, one at a time)
When I got up there, knife to the chromedome....and as Iooted him, it was there again.

Makes me wonder tho....not every runner has that sound....maybe the Blackwall is sniffing around em...

i'ts pretty much all the time, its as you said like a radio badly tuned but i don't exactly hear a voice as of yet, but if its like some in game event or some sort of thing I've to do i hope its that because even with the updates, the game still be causing issues, i'm not sure if its a bug or just the in game shenanigans

Sounds like you may have the Johnny glitch effect. It's a known bug. Happens during the Automatic Love quest.
If it's that, there is a mod specifically to fix that one thing.
Or you can go back before the bug and choose different dialogue options.
Lots of info on the net about this one. Just google cyberpunk Johnny glitch

I've always had a slight static noise (like a speaker system that isn't properly grounded) while reading shards, just thought it was normal... No other game issues/crashes since 1.4.1 that weren't instantly fixed by verification or driver updates.

For a moment I thought it was my headset problem

If it's the Johnny glitch effect I mentioned there is a noticeable visual effect. It's like the lines on the screen when Johnny is around. There is no mistaking it.

There's no visual effect , it just turned up one day when i was playing it, it may be the johnny glitch but i've yet to fix it because it keeps crashing XD also i don't have the DLC so i don't know if that is aslo a variable

Still happening 2.12 version beat the entire game wasn't happening, decided to play again for fun audio sounds like garbled dog s***.

Im having the same problem. It gets worse the more ♥♥♥♥ is going on. combat is unbarable. makes the game unplayable at times
Using recording software, record the audio within the game without using a separate microphone. (Windows+G has the ability to record gameplay with audio from any game through the Xbox overlay. This is included with Windows 10 and 11. It actually works with any Windows application that doesn't use non-standard custom rendering methods, game or not.)

If replaying the audio does not have the noise, it's a hardware issue creating the issue. The processing in intensive games can result in aural artifacts not caused by the game itself.

Not exactly the same thing but may be related and help track down what causes it.

Whenever Dr Paradox hijacks a video feed, the closer I am to it the more loud horrible static noises and pops I'll get.

It's so bad that I flee the scene whenever he comes on.
