Bo3 lowers microphone volume

[Jansen]

Whenever I, or a friend, start BO3, our microphones get lowered to about 25-50% in windows. This ONLY happens in BO3... Any solutions?

turn all volume except master volume (in game) to .35

you will then be able to hear everyone else

Blops 3's ingame audio options for microphones actually changes the windows microphone options. To fix this issue, simply change the ingame settings in Blops3 for the microphone to what you ussually use in windows (in my case I set the ingame microphone settings to 100%)

To recap when you boot blops3 it will change windows volume settings to what ever volume settings you have set in game for the microphone.

Tried that, was my first thought actually. Didnt work as it was already set to this.

Can confirm this is the issue.
You go into the "Chat" tab with the headset icon and put both settings to 100
(mine was set to 0.75)


I know this is an old post but people still look this up.

Hitman is correct, it fixed my issue if anyone is still having this. +1
