in game sound and vox

[wgmount]

Hi,
 I've been away from the game for about 3 months and came back and got all the updates. Now when I talk on vox channel and on range the in game sound changes. The engine gets quieter is what I noticed. Everyone says I sound like I'm in a barrel also.

check the advanced options for voice...there are some new settings to adjust. make sure the game is specifically using the microphone port it's supposed to. everyone seems to be getting different results too...some people are very clear, others sound like talking in a tin can, others like whispers.

The engine gets quieter is what I noticed

Somewhere there is a setting for this. It's so you can hear vox over the "background" noise.

Check preferences or options in the clipboard.

The "sounds like you're in a barrel" thing is the newest vox thingy they just added. As far as I can tell, it really picks up ambient background noises in the senders house really well now. You can hear other people in the background, kids, dogs, T.V..
