Voice Prioritization Does Not Seem to be Working Well Anymore

At some point in the last few patches, Voice Prioritization appears to have been broken. Or the way it works now it less effective.
I have heard multiple people comment on it. I feel like it's not working as well as it previously did either. I notice far less ducking of other voices that are not near me.

OMG I
thought
something was off... it's subtle but yes it's been a lot harder to understand people in crowds for me and I guess it's because of this.rollthered
Just give us the option to adjust other people's volumes and I feel like we wont need this. :)

Why not both?

Hugo Zink: Missed my point. We won't need both.

I disagree. Voice prioritization seemed to be a pretty complex and useful automated system. I don't want to have to constantly point at people and lower down 10 people's volumes just to hear 1 person, only to then have to repeat it when someone else speaks. In addition, voice prioritization is not meant to fix the fact that some people are super quiet and others are super loud.
They
can
accomplish similar goals, but ultimately they're two different systems and should be treated as such. Both are sorely needed, though.H

Some people have noted the
opposite
problem now happens since the last update (build 772). With voice prioritization enabled, people are now very hard to hear from more than 2 meters away, even if nobody else is nearby. In the courtroom map for example, enabling voice prioritization makes it almost impossible to hear the judge or the opposite side.If these reports are true, I'm glad they're doing at least something to address the problem, but it seems we're not quite there yet.

Same, very annoying if the person 5m away from you is louder than someone talking into your ear ...

Not only that anymore. (Made a canny post bout this tho) but if you are under 25 fps then your voice starts to lag more n more the lower under 25 you drop. Rn the game is unplayable for me

- Notice there is no voice ducking going on.

Please consider implementing a hotfix, switching to a new system will probably take a while and I can barely be in busy worlds anymore in the current state. I can't talk to people because everyone sounds equally loud (on top of the voice delays in Europe).
