89 The_Vermonster Members 486 posts 8,696 battles Report post #1 Posted January 6, 2016 so in game my sounds are reversed, If tropes are coming from the right side I hear them on the left 7 vice versa.seems to have happened some time in the last few days, makes it hard to avoid them when I am trying to figure out where they really are when relying on sounds. I play a lot of FPS games and the sound comes thru in a surround state I can tell if there up, behind, right or left but in here in wows my sounds have reversed.. I keep thinking my headsets on backwards but I know it is not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4 Yoleven Beta Testers 13 posts 4,608 battles Report post #4 Posted January 7, 2016 I can confirm this as well. I'm currently playing with some Sennheiser 363D headphones and the beeping from torps is often reversed, as are allies shooting nearby. I know the 363D's use Dolby Headphone, so maybe that's the issue? I've tried switching from 7.1 to 5.1 and the problem persists. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

31 ZeroCoolant Members 46 posts 4,181 battles Report post #6 Posted December 22, 2020 Actually, seeing the Sennheiser similarity -- it is on my end. The headphone jacks are possible to plug into either side, and mine were reversed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2,222 [-TRM-] xHeavy Members 5,566 posts Report post #7 Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) I use one odio headphones and its been reversed for months. I finally reversed the headset but its incorrect for everything else on the computer. There is no way to "Flip" sounds in my software or hardware. It also sits incorrectly on my head now for this game. I have grown tired of hearing teammates shoot behind me to one side and make me wonder why are they between me and the enemy. This is a issue that needs fixing. Edited December 22, 2020 by xHeavy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your reasoning makes logical sense ... but the reason why it matters is that bringing up old threads is "not acceptable" per the forum rules/guidelines ...
