The poor audio quality makes my ears bleed
And i thought the main problem was the lack on the achievements

I'm reliefed now cause I know that even if it had the achivs, i couldn't play longer than 1 hour before my ears start to bleed

Sure, it's a sensitive topic and no one with that grief should need to be triggered; although disregarding the natural concern for civility, my personal concern is for anyone to mistake you for being a potential danger to yourself or others - you do not want that smoke.
Comments of that nature, especially shared across the internet and world wide web, can get you swatted; well, the swat team wont break into your home, but the local police authorities would be obligated to perform a welfare check if they received a report that someone is suspected to be of potential harm to themselves or potentially others.

So please, I only caution to be more considerate, and I appreciate anyone who can take those concerns to heart to behave more humanely.

Ok friend thanks for your warning

But bring me a solution for my audio issue as well if possible

The problem is that the audio is stored at a 24,000 Hz sample rate, with a variable bitrate that peaks around 70 kbps. This is extremely bad. It is worse than CD quality. So I do not believe this is something you can fix yourself.

Also Ubisoft has said that they will do nothing about it. This is the quote from Ubisoft support:

"After thorough investigation, the development team will not be able to resolve these audio issues. Resolution of this issue would require an overhaul of the entire audio system from the ground up and is not feasible. We recommend enabling subtitles to aid comprehension of dialogue."

Sounds like a you-issue. I have big complains with Valhalla but the sound is not one of them

Audio's fine for me

I agree the audio is strange. Iv tried messing with the settings. It just sounds like crap compared to other games.

Others complain about sound as well, but it's not an issue that crops up for everybody.

It could an issue with sound drivers or specific sound chips your motherboard is using. I don't think anyone's figured out why this is happening for a few people but not most.

Voices can be pretty bad at times. The soundtrack has been knocking it out of the park though.

everything sounds like crap, like low "resolution" audio, from the game to the menus
feels like i'm inside a bathroom or like i'm using a 10$ headphone
Pirilampo Dec 15, 2022 @ 7:00pm
