Splinter Cell Double Agent Sound Problem (X360)

Beepcake · 10 Nov 2006 at 11:54

Does anyone else have a problem with the volume of the voices in Splinter Cell? I don't currently have a 5.1 setup, and I think that might be the problem. Basically whenever anyone is talking and there's any kind of background noise the voices are either so quiet I can't hear them, or if I pan round a bit, excessively loud. There doesn't seem to be any options to change the relative volumes that I can see

Anyone else on povvy 2 speakers have the same problem? It's ruining the game a bit because I'm struggling to follow the story and my orders

There are strange voice problems on mine where it sounds like the voices shouldn't be there, or are too loud/quiet at the time they are there (only when playing - it's fine in cutscenes).

Yeah, cutscenes are fine. I've only played the first few levels so far, but the prison was terrible. There was so much noise that I didn't even notice the other guy was talking to me from the roof.

It's never been constant for me, it's hardly enough for me to really notice it. I think it happened once on Prison.

Are you playing with 5.1 or stereo?

I've played with both, 5.1 downstairs and Digital Stereo upstairs.
