FORT-981121 has been created and its status is ‘Unconfirmed’. This is now in a queue to be reproduced and confirmed.

I can confirm, I did a lot of tests and sometimes u cant hear anyone at all and sometimes u hear them trough the whole map.

We have been getting lot of messages from players about the bug.

This is really frustrating since we dealt with a similar proximity chat bug 2 months ago.

After the fix it worked for only 1 month and now its broken again.

This really needs to be fixed.

Hey @MoralzzX Did you test this with only one friend in your party? Also, just double-checking that you are sure you were in the right channel.

I tested this in a public game. When I joined, I could hear random players at any distance. Same with others in the game. It seemed to only break randomly. Some players I could hear only at certain distances like I have the setting at, while others I could always hear.

Thank you, I’ll let the team know.
