Why does CS:GO make my mic loud?
Best answer

Oh, the classic CS:GO mic boost saga! Basically, CS:GO has its own audio settings that can override your system's default mic levels. It tries to auto-adjust your mic to make sure you're heard in-game, but sometimes, it overcompensates and cranks it up too high. A quick fix? Dive into your CS:GO audio settings and lower the 'Microphone Volume' setting. Also, check your computer's sound settings to make sure CS:GO hasn't maxed out the mic volume there, too.

Literally just go into your sound settings and turn down the 'Mic Boost' option. CS:GO likes to be the boss of your mic, but you can take control back!

It's a feature, not a bug! Jokes aside, CS:GO amplifies mic volume to ensure clear communications, which is key in competitive play. Still, if your teammates complain about your mic blasting their ears off, it's time to adjust those settings.

I dunno, never happened to me. Just adjust your settings?
