Steps To Reproduce

Be me and feel very lonely because it seems like no one ever wants to talk to you.

Additional Information

It seems like this is an issue very specific to me and I believe has been ongoing since I bought the game awhile back. For the longest time I thought no one wanted to talk to me because I would send out chats and others wouldn't respond. It was not until recently that that some friends of mine got the game and we soon discovered that they could read everything I sent out but I couldn't read/hear the messages they sent out.

Hello theloganish,

Sorry to hear about your trouble. Would it be possible for you to attach screenshots of your audio settings at the following locations please:

  1. Main menu --> Configure

and

  1. Main menu --> Configure --> Audio

Thanks,

Hello JStewart,
I uploaded those screenshots you asked for. Should I try reinstalling the game because I have not done that yet?
Thank you for your help,
Logan

what microphone do you use? is it built-in webcam or headphones?

Neither, I don't use a microphone but I have friends that do and when they talk to me it doesn't play their audio through the speakers while I can hear all other in game sounds. Also using / to chat they can read my chats but theirs won't show up on my screen.

Are you experiencing similar issues when communicating via Skype/Teamspeak for example?
