Post Microphone/Walkie-Talkie related issues here

[=Chdc= Chris [✈]]

We are aware of the issues some people are having with the microphones/walkie-talkies. We are actively working on a solution. If you have this issue and want to help us, please provide us with information like, at what point it happened, if loading took long, which operating system and if it was working before.

We're very happy with all the information we got about the issue! We've had some issues with the photon voice service, but we're close to a fix, or atleast a temporary fix. If you want to play and have this issue, please use a third party voice service. Stay tuned!

Thanks for sharing all this information! There seem to be a few different causes that some people are experiencing. I will give a few scenario's and a possible way to fix it. I can't guarantee that it will work, but it could possibly serve as a (temporary) fix.

1. No one can hear you, but you can hear them

- Set your microphone as a standard device in Windows Recording devices (Rightmouslick on speaker icon in taskbar and click recording devices). After that restart the game.
- If applicable, unplug other microphone devices and restart the game.

2. The voice chat works in the lobby room, but stops when in-game

- Lower your graphics quality settings to prevent the game from freezing for a while (if that's the case).
- If that doesn't work, try switching roles (Librarian/explorer)

3. The voice chat doesn't work for both you and your friend

- In some cases the voicechat servers could be overloaded. Then it's best to try at a later time.

And lastly, there is always an option to use external voice chat like Discord, Teamspeak or Skype. The loss of Walkie Talkies will not impact the gameplay too much.

trying to find a stranger match to the game, i can hear people in the lobby fine but once in game i can't hear anyone and nobody has answered me. i played the game with a friend the first time and used disc externally to communicate. Yes my game has a freeze/lag moment before the snow scene when loading. super frustrating! I have my graphics set as the lowest setting just to see and it made no difference

our server-side hamsters are exhausted because of the load.what's it mean?

I have a headset. When im talking with my future partner in the lobby, everything is great. Well, when we start, my mic seems to turn off by itself. I don't know why. (My game is kind of lagging. Even when I use minimal graph settings)

And sometimes people just cant hear me... (Tried everything, nothing works)

From my experience: Worked sometimes in lobby, walkie has never worked for me so far. None of us could hear each other. In lobby, communication sometimes works and sometimes it doesnt, I suspect it has something to do with the servers, or the different internet speed. Hope that helps you guys!

One player I tried playing with had mic volume set *really* low. That could be another issue.

I tried to play with my brother few minutes ago and we could hear each other in lobby just fine but after loading micophones no longer work, we both picked up walkie talkie but we cannot hear each other, if my brother pushes V button i can hear walkie talkie turn on but i cant hear him talking and he also cant hear me when i am talking.

How long until some kind of fix? I know that we could use discord or skype but its more fun to use ingame system without any third party service :)

Also i forgot to mention, my brothers game loads much faster than on my pc and my pc freezes for a second or two before cutscene

Ah I just made a post about this xD which is probably dead now. So it's an actual issue, well I really hope the issue gets resolved because everything aside, this is a great concept for a game, if you add in something story like, I think it has the potential to be one of those great indie games :')

Copying my comment over from another thread, just saw this one:
My teammate and I had this same issue. We were fine hearing each other in lobby, but could not use walkies in the game. We used a third party.

[aaaaaaaaaaaa]

I'm hearing other players (and they're able to hear me) on the main menu, after exiting a game and returning to the main menu. It resolves that issue once I click start game.

Hello guys and gals!

I'm not sure if this has been posted before but we found a reliable way to get the radio to work (this solution works on PC). We haven't tested this extensively but it has worked for me and a couple of other groups I told this to.

Make sure to join THROUGH STEAM. All the We Were Here games have an option to "Invite a Friend" within the game menu. This brings up your steam friends list and a button to invite through steam. Make sure the lobby is created through this "Invite a Friend" function and NOT by you creating a lobby yourself using the "Create Lobby" function. If you do it correctly, it won't ask you to create a password because you won't need one since the lobby will be locked for anyone that doesn't get your steam invite.

I had searched through forums about this and couldn't find this solution posted so I wanted to post it here so those that still want to play the past games can do so fully immersed in the experience with the radios.

Hopefully this helps!
