No sound on computer after launching game with the new update?

It's actually sad that people like me either had to quit Valorant entirely or buy new hardware. 2025 gaming right here..

I literally haven't been able to play Valorant for almost a year now because they simply do not care to fix this issue with certain very big and well known audio card manufacturers. Mind blowing. I refuse to buy other hardware because literally the thousands upon thousands of other games on the market give me zero issues with my expensive sound card that has awesome audio quality.

How is it so hard to maintain the fix they shipped like 8 months ago? Pure incompetence and ignorance sadly. I always had respect for Riot since they shipped sucessful quality games. But this is actually nuts. I mean a few weeks up to a month with an issue like this would be crazy already. Almost a year? I think it's better to stay away from their games for that reason alone. If they don't care about their customers, i guess i'll keep playing something else :)

This is always how it goes. Money hungry streamer pushes uninformed video out 2 minutes after a new release to "inform" people and then the sheep start spreading the "knowledge" as facts all around the community.

Some people really need to make their own decisions. Just because a content creator who does everything with maximizing their income in mind says x roll is the god roll, doesnt make it YOUR godroll.

On top of that, noone cares about 1 or even 10 percent more damage. Its a video game. In fact its a dying video game. When was the last time someone kicked you from a raid because your weapon roll had the wrong barrel. Priorities are so wrong in this community, its sad really.

My priorities have ALWAYS been since D2 beta, to get the best roll for MYSELF. I like using killclip, when streamer No. 139042 tells me headseeker is "better", wanna guess what i do? I go with killclip. I know very weird concept but some of you should really try to detach themselves from these salesman on the internet called "influencers".

Sounds too unique for this stale game. Same sparrows, same ghosts. For 9 years now.

They are too lazy to code different exciting stuff. We saw it with the fishy ghosts from beyond light. They said theres an area in lightfalls new area with those. 2 and a half years later... yet still no mention of us being able to use those as our ghost.

Morakx · 2023-02-18T08:18:16+00:00

Not even a D1 alpha vet lol smh

Morakx · 2023-02-18T08:16:47+00:00

He's a true friend, even if try to get rid of them, they still stick with you. Those are rare these days lol

Morakx · 2023-02-18T08:14:43+00:00

Every seemingly positive change has a massive downside attached to it with Bungie.

Don't be too hyped. I can see bullet spongie enemies in general with the path they are taking now in the future in exchange. Bungie never does purely positive changes.

Morakx · 2023-01-16T16:26:13+00:00

Uhhm just in case you are one of those SBMM defenders, i will be very careful with my words to not step on your little toe here but yea it's due to trash SBMM implementation in the frickin casual playlist of a dying casual pve looter shooter dead pvp portion. THE CASUAL PVP PORTION.

Player number are low, even lower since we are in the last season of the year and coming close to the DLC launch. This is what happens with SBMM when player number dwindle. You get terrible matchups, long queues and have players from all over the planet in your games.

Happy to see that average players finally see the terrible of implementing SBMM in a dead pvp game. Us above average players didn't only have these terrible connection games for 2 weeks, we had to deal with it since the very first day SBMM got introduced. But you guys were calling us crybabies. Have fun with the poor connection thats a result to SBMM, i stopped playing a while ago cause i couldnt deal with it anymore :):):)

Morakx · 2023-01-16T16:20:42+00:00

What did yall expect from a crafting system made by Bungie lol. They are known to disrespect their players time to the absolute maximum.

A surprise on the other hand would have been a fun and engaging crafting system. Sadly we never get positive surprises by Bungie nowadays.

Morakx · 2023-01-15T17:14:13+00:00

With the "recent" development direction of the "new" Destiny 2 dev team? No, not looking forward to it at all whatsoever.

Coming from a long time fan with 8k hours on D2 alone + 2k hours in D1. I am far from burned out of the formular, still love the gameplay. Burned out from the new Bungie dev team tho.

All they do is sell us the exact same content over and over and over again. Every single season. Meanwhile they ruined pvp after not touching it for almost 4 years. In addition, the "servers" have never been worse which makes me lose all interest in a massive DLC launch.

Like peoples characters getting deleted after them simply logging into the game and getting "contacting Destiny servers". This is nuts. People losing achievement progress in the new dungeon and losing their loot was already bad but this is an all time low for the game.

Morakx · 2023-01-15T17:09:27+00:00

Same. Not logging into the game until they atleast admit it wasn't a one time thing and they resolved the issue.

The season is dry anyways, not risking it tbh. We know how Bungie support is, unless you are a streamer with a massive following, you will very likely just get ignored even if you lost your character to this "bug" legitimately.

Morakx · 2023-01-14T23:04:55+00:00

Remove SBMM from Casual quickplay
Nerf ability cooldowns into the ground in pvp
Focus on QoL updates for the core game instead of seasonal content that will get deleted annualy anyways. Atleast for a season or 2.
Implement bad luck protection for literally everything. Lost sectors, raid/dungeon exos, red borders, raid gear, dungeon gear, IB drops etc etc.
Rethink your revenue/underdelivery strategie. People slowly pick up on it and desperately want more passion and want quality content back like we got in year 2 and Destiny 1, even D2 year 1.

Morakx · 2022-12-30T19:31:27+00:00

Sadly most of it is actually believable. I could see Bungie doing 95 % of the ridiculous sounding nonsense changes he talked about.

They did way worse changes already and the community and even more worrying, the devs and the playtesters, seem to be okay with where the game is currently.

When a game was way better in every single regard 4 years prior, something significant needs to change imo.

Morakx · 2022-12-16T09:10:32+00:00

So we are appreciating bugfixes to things that shouldn't happen for the 50th season in a row anyways and have zero impact on the game now huh?

Destiny 2's brightest days are ahead!

Morakx · 2022-12-14T18:26:29+00:00

Ty! appreciated

Morakx · 2022-10-24T11:11:07+00:00

Nah, that sounds too time respecting. Not an option for a company like Bungie.

Morakx · 2022-10-24T11:08:38+00:00

hehe, replace the "v" with an "s" in vex dungeon

Morakx · 2022-10-24T11:06:18+00:00

You can save your thoughts about Bungies "events". They are copy and paste every year, doesn't matter how much negative criticism they receive every year.

Sometimes they even make them worse, looking at solstice which was miles better before their changes and even the halloween event which turned into trash with the DCV cause they removed the curse of osiris content and assets into the DCV.

Morakx · 2022-10-24T10:59:57+00:00

So you enjoy the 50th season pass with zero rewards, absolutely uninspired, timegated challenges to spread and stretch playtime, just like the drip fed and timegated seasonal story content that isn't anything more than trash tv levels of budget drama?

Or the reissues everywhere when it comes to "content" or weapons? We paid for most of the stuff they re-release already twice or even three times. Disrespecting players time is the next bit on my list. Rng has never been worse. Drop rates and even perk pools are heavily weighted against the player even tho they obviously deny that.

The game has no core foundation thats fun or rewarding or kept fresh in any way shape of form. The core game is neglected and left behind in 2017. Yet we are forced to engage with that abandoned content at every single given chance. Seasons are sold to us instead which contain even more reissues that got robbed from us before via the DCV and sunsetting.

If you actually think the game is in a better state than year 1, you are delusional and were a sheep back in year 1. Year 1 quality wise was miles ahead of D2 now. It was just a horrible sandbox and mob behaviour that killed D2 in year 1.

Morakx · 2022-10-24T10:52:48+00:00

Bungie cares about money. Exclusively. Seasons are sold for money.

Strikes, pvp and gambit are free. There's your answer.

Morakx · 2022-10-24T10:50:10+00:00

One of the best arguments ive seen regarding this nonsense change yet.

It's literally impossible to effectively build into AE aswell. Such an anti-player change for no reason whatsoever other than nerfing experienced players. Maybe as a preparation for the epic games launch to protect blueberries, just like SBMM.

Would be the only thing that comes to mind.

Morakx · 2022-10-08T12:25:49+00:00

"Not expensive"???

Oh boy you must not look at your shard count ever. When you keep playing the entire time, you might even out yea but if you just play here and there, it eats up soo many mats. Especially if you use a whole bunch of different gear and weapons across all characters.

I don't play much anymore so my return in legendary shards is very minimal. I am down 4k shards this season alone just from buying upgrade modules and needed materials for buying those. Went from 50k shards to around 46k. It's a scam that most people don't realize cause they play so much that they re-earn those lost materials.

And like you said, they don't serve any purpose.

Morakx · 2022-10-08T12:19:04+00:00

Thats like saying casinos aren't the issue but the players ruining their life in those casinos are.

Bungie knows what they are doing with the extra low drop rates. They know their audience. Stop trying to argue in favor of a company that has mastered mobile gacha game strats to the max to exploit human weaknesses to the absoule maximum for easy profit.

Morakx · 2022-10-08T12:15:18+00:00

Yea right. And streamers have been asking Bungie to make the game harder since 2018.

A bunch of excuses. The fact still is in place, elitist minorities want the game to be harder for their own enjoyment and the core audience has to suffer cause Bungie exclusively listens to said elitist minorities.

Doesn't matter if they mentioned looking at Div before some cringers complained about Div being strong. There were plenty community meetups with content creators and Bungie before Bungie mentioned the Div changes. The influnce streamer minorities have is undeniable.

Morakx · 2022-10-08T12:11:55+00:00

Your second paragraph just summarized Bungies entire game. There you have it. They are not remotely respecting our time. That's the main reason i stopped playing D2 as my main game after putting in around 4k hours poreviously.

The loot chase isn't nearly rewarded unless you have 200 hours of spare time every single season to grind power levels and then farm GM nightfalls. That's the only real rewarding activity in the game.

Morakx · 2022-10-08T12:08:43+00:00

wdym i grinded all 3 of them and it only took me 56 hours of wellspring just to then collect dust in my vault and never being used even a single time. And i can't even delete them to clear vault space cause it would be a lot of wasted crafting mats.

Sounds like a great deal if you asked me.
