Bugged audio

[M4UR29]

I just got into the game after this update and the audio is bugged, a strong blizzard is without sound and the audio of eating, drinking etc, is very low and can not hear !! I need to do something or is it even the game !! !!

heh...I just killed a bear next to Hibernia...right by the tanks. I then proceeded to gleefully cook it up at the fire barrel right there.

The bear's ghost haunted me for a long time. The sound of the bear snorting and walking around was mixed in with the normal metal structure sounds that you hear outside Hibernia. Freaked me out because I was thinking there was another bear. I was level 3 stink because of all the bear meat so it wasn't improbable. I was crawling around all over with my rifle out looking for the bastard.

Then I figured out the sound was loudest at blood spot on the snow. I left entered a building and came back out...still there. So I saved my game and restarted the game and it went away.

It was a bug...but kind of a fun one.

Me also....posted this in the technical issue subforum last week and had no responses. At least I know its not just me

I’ve had a couple silent blizzards too. Does anyone else have a really quiet/muffled scream when falling off a rock climbing wall too? I guess that would only apply to WINTERMUTE, but I noticed that too. Will’s screams during a bear mauling have also been really quiet and muffled for me.

In Survival mode which is what I am playing, the sound of when the character eats, drinks water or other actions is also muffled just like you said ... I hope they fix it !!

Same here:
Ongoing terror-hauling of bear and wolf even after they 'calmed down' and/or animal is killed
No Sound efects while wind/storm/blizzard after entering/leaving structures
That same sound issue happened about 1,5 years ago...combined with wheather changes trough entering/exiting structures.
The trigger should be known...

I had this same trouble after a blizzard while resting in a cave. It seemed to apply to most gathering sound effects. Was an easy fix for me as I just had to exit the game out fully and start again. The OP mentioned a blizzard so I expect it is related to the howling wind sound effect played by it.

I should note that I exited and reloaded after the blizzard had ended.
