Issues fixed
Missing voices, subtitles, music, and other sound effects
- If the game is on an external drive, some elements such as voices, subtitles, music, and certain sound effects like lightning may not be played during gameplay.
This can easily be observed in the prologue cutscene, where Garrett should be speaking.
Install the game on an internal drive[10] |
