Paladins: Champions of the Realm, the popular free-to-play FPS, is reportedly having some audio issues that can seriously affect the gameplay.

Audio stuttering or choppy issue on Paladins: Champions of the Realm
Some Paladins: Champions of the Realm players report erratic sound behavior. For example, VGS commands (preset commands with sound) only display text, or sometimes only some players can hear them.
In addition, this problem with the audio (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) can also affect the sounds of the weapons, the skills, and even the steps when walking.
This audio bug also effects there weapons and ult too where you can’t hear there bullets and abilities. Also sometimes you hear there voice lines but not there weapons and the ult voice lines works too. Source
This brings derived problems that affect the gameplay. For example, you cannot hear well if you have opponents close. Also, you can’t coordinate well with your team either.
Developers are aware and working to fix the bug
The Paladins team officially confirmed that they are aware of the audio issue. They claim that they are working to resolve it as soon as possible. However, there is still no ETA for the fix.
In the coming days, if there is any new development in this regard, we will update this article. So, stay tuned with us.
