The sound quality in P vs Z 2 went totally haywire for me. It suddenly got all scratchy and tinny, with a weird sort of remote echoing that distorted everything. It was almost like I was playing the game inside a huge tin box and it was most off-putting. (I mute the music, so I don't know if that was also affected because it didn't occur to me at the time to check.)
I use earphones while playing so I don't disturb my wife, so I thought maybe they were the problem. I tried without them, but it remained the same - only FAR worse when coming directly from my tablet. I tried exiting the game and then relaunching, but it remained the same. I turned my tablet off and then back on. That made no difference.
All my other apps were okay, sound-wise. Despite this I tried updating the tablet firmware, but that made no difference either.
I resorted to playing with the in-game sounds muted for a while, but that took away the atmospheric quality - at least for me.
In the end I resorted to desperate measures. With my heart in my mouth I backed everything up and Force-Stopped the game before uninstalling and reinstalling.
Fortunately Google Play recognised me and I got everything back - apart from the terrible sound.
It was REALLY nerve-racking while I waited to see if I'd lost everything, like I've read about with other players, but after the reinstall everything became crystal clear again. PHEWW!!
I don't understand why the sounds suddenly got so bad. It started right in the middle of a Battlez match and I wondered if it was down to my internet connection. But when it continued while I wasn't playing Battlez that eliminated the internet connection as a possible cause. (I'd even reset my Home Hub just in case it was that.)
Was it just me, or has anyone else ever experienced something similar?
