Since today's update (1.16) there's something wrong with the game on Xbox One X. The sound got weird - I played a few matches in both Dominion and Practice mode and it's the same everywhere. Speech / narration is too loud while other sound effects sound like they were echoing. The weapon sounds and character voices are muffled and as if they were in a metal can. The game is not enjoyable in this state. I haven't had this problem before 1.16 at all. Of course I tried restarting the console after the update but it didn't help.
Yes, can confirm sound issues. Downloaded the xbox one x patch and the game sounded like my headphones were tin cans. I loaded a different game and it sounded fine, so I restarted console and loaded For Honor and the issue was fixed. Played a few matches and hit the guide button and lost all game sound. So definitely some sound bugs with this patch.
Edit: After restarting game the tin can sound came back.
