Fixed Audio Via ini editing.
I seem to have fixed my audio by popping into the file GameUserSettings.ini and changing AudioQualityLevel=0 to AudioQualityLevel=1
I did the same for the setting directly below: LastConfirmedAudioQualityLevel=1

On my end, all audio issues have cleared up, but some folks are reporting mixed results - with some only having partial success.

File is located here. C;/Users/username/AppData/LocalLow/MCC/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor



EDIT: I've noticed a number of other threads that simply tell you to delete the folder this file is in and most, if not all issues will be fixed, so there is that if making a simple change doesn't work.

You could just try it and either confirm it or deny it for yourself

I will. But I'm just paranoid about the placebo.

I posted about this a bit ago, https://steamcommunity.com/app/976730/discussions/0/175239397

Doesn't seem to be a full fix and you'll probably start getting crackles again soon. I tested it on 1, 5, 10, and 100. 100 seemed to work the best but now the crackles are back it seems. Though it does seem to help a tiny bit and at times it seems to help a lot. So it's rather difficult to say if this actually worked. Also no idea what the min/max is for that setting. I checked another game with the same setup and it also had a default of 0, and that game had no sound issues that I know of.

It is found in,
C:\Users\(name you use)\AppData\LocalLow\MCC\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

To be fair, when I changed that setting, I also turned off mouse smoothing and touched one or two settings that seem to have no effect, so confirmation from anyone will probably be a good idea.

Confirmed fixed.

How the hell did they ship the game with this setting left at 0?

There's still a weird mixing issue where ambient sounds are much louder than player sounds which is dumb.

Nah Bethesda games are like fun puzzles for the modding community. Which then create a playable version the rest of us can play a year later. Also takes work away from Bethesda when everyone expects their games to be ♥♥♥♥ at launch anyway.

can confirm it works. Audio and bg music is now way better.

Drastic improvement since I can now hear shields regenerating better and subtle echoes when clicking/navigating on menus

Wouldn't say it's a complete fix. Still getting crackling & distortion from time to time
