How to fix audio problems in Call of Duty: Vanguard

When launching Call of Duty: Vanguard, several players experience some audio issues with the game. Previous Call of Duty games have encountered issues and many have reported these issues while playing the beta in September. Here's what you need to know about how to potentially fix these audio problems and narrow down what the solution can be to clear things up on your part. Audio problems range from not hearing too good and hearing too much, making footsteps sound far away and not there.

You can find and adjust the audio in the settings. It will be the third tab in the settings menu. First, make sure you're playing the audio mix, so that it plays sound that mirrors what you're using, such as your TV speakers or headphones. Next, you'll want to play around with the master volume setting and sound effects, the primary source of the footsteps. Turning up the volume to hear them will help, but everything else is fine too. It is important to make sure that you have the correct audio source being played by Call of Duty: Vanguard.

Further down, you can adjust more settings, such as mute Killstreak's music or mute in-game voice chat. These are additional sounds that can cause too many louder background sounds that you won't want to focus on.

The main problem players encounter are silent footsteps or not hearing them at all. After all, those are the audio files that Sledgehammer put into the game. Unfortunately, there aren't enough specific options in the audio settings to turn down the specific ones. Some players have had solutions where they had to restart the game, even though it doesn't work for everyone.
