What on earth is up with the sound? I just reinstalled and it's like an explosion in the BBC Radiophionic Workshop.

Is it meant to do that now?

    Are you talking about the intermittant popping noise when loads of action is happening, people are around, or whenever there is lag? Because if you are, I am experiencing this as well. Nothing seems to work. I have tried rolling back drivers, tweaking hardware acceleration features for my sound card, updating drivers for every peice of hardware I have, double checking to see if there is a BIOS update for my Alienware Aurora.... ect.

    I attempted to get help from Cryptic's support team, but they are useless. In one reply they tell me to update my system drivers even though I explicitly say in my post, "I UPDATED MY SYSTEM DRIVERS." This robotic nonsense with mmorpg support teams is convincing me to get a lawyer and sue these people just for wasting my time and money on a game they have no intention of helping me troubleshoot. The broken record thing is so annoying. The only reason they aren't being sued yet, is because clauses in their end-user license state that the software is sold "as is" and they don't guarantee the game will work at all.

    I know one thing: There aught to be a law that makes support teams accountable for at least making an honest effort to troubleshoot a problem once we get past the point of checklisting mundane updates and workarounds. If we state that we have tried these things in our posts, BELIEVE WHAT WE ARE TELLING YOU.

    Having similar sound issue whenever on ground (SFA, Spacedock...). Really annoying and happened just now after I patched to season 5. And no, the problem is not on my side as it was working perfetly before.
