Smoke grenades sfx bug(super annoying)

#1

Every single time one of your teammates throws down a smoke grenade you get this horrible sound glitch… it seems to happen with the thermal vision disrupter things as well it’s a horrible sound that kinda sounds like baseball bats smacking into each other repeatedly about 3 or 4 times every single time someone deploys the smokes or the thermal thing

Does this only happen if a teammate throws the smoke grenade or do you experience this if you throw it as well?

Does this happen on both Xbox and PS5? (from your other post I believe you play on both)

Hi Doom. I tested this sound glitch with my daughter. It occurs for the player that throws the item and for players within earshot of the player that threw the item. This happens when noise makers, smoke nades, and thermal flares first hit terrain. It’s like the sound hit on terrain is being spammed several times instead of just when the item first touches terrain and when it would do a big bounce. It seems like it is registering hit sounds for every turn/roll of the item. I hope that makes sense and helps the team troubleshoot the issue. We tested this on our Xbox Series X consoles.

Does it happen every single game?? Cuz I jist tested it on ps5 and it didn’t happen

I just played a game on ps5 and it didn’t happen but im not sure but seems to happen on xbox every single game. @Khemikalburn did a more detailed breakdown of what gear items causes it to happen and it’s most of them… all of the ones that make noise like for example the ammo bag doesn’t make the bug occur but pretty much anything that makes noise does

And yes you’re correct I play on both consoles 😎👍🏽

It happened for us on almost every throw. I think it depends on how the item lands. I haven’t had a chance to test it on my PC as I’m in the process of building it.
