Nothing's more annoying while driving around, some dialogue starts, and for whatever reason, it gets cut off, and then I never get to hear it. Once it starts, let it finish!

The avatars confused me there and for a second I thought the OP was talking to themselves.
Was wondering "is there banter going on in your head as we speak?"

Yeah, I'll agree with that, actually. Having party banter being interrupted can get annoying. I want to hear it, dammit! Whatever that trigger for banter is needs to be adjusted for local environment. If you're moving into a shooty-shooty scene soon(ish) it doesn't need to trigger to start.

That's actually also with the OT. If Banter starts stop moving or you could trigger a cut off. It's worse here because you'd be drifting in the Nomad, your party would start talking, and then you'd have them cut off by "EYY YO RYDER, GOTS A MININ' ZONE FO YA!" Or maybe you'd get one of those "ey, them bitch ass Kett set up here!" And then you won't know how the rest of the squad convo plays out. In the OT, you had to actually move for people to stop, here, you're in and out of three different dialog triggers within a second. |

Has anyone tried adjusting the dynamic range to: Wide (Cinema)? Is this happening for people using a 7.1 Surround Sound Setup? Are Subtitles enabled? What is the Master Volume set to versus the other sound settings: Music, SFX, Dialog? |

I can agree here. Cutting off banter, or just conversations by SAM is really annoying. I think this could be solved in two ways.
1. Completely turn off all "Environmental" messages from SAM (the best option in my opinion, because you can see at the color changes when crossing an environmental border, and health/damage meters that you are in a harsh environment). You only need that kind of messages in the tutorial stage, but after that you know enough to recognize the situation without warnings from SAM.
2. Suppress messages from SAM when other messages/dialog is running. That would be a bit tricky, because "SAM" has to "know" when messages/dialog really ends, or that it is a simple pause or switch to dialog/message from another (scene-related) character. That would be difficult to program.

Yeah Bio needs to really patch SAM to quiet him up on the Tempest. Honestly, for mundane stuff like AVP outstanding or email, I'd much rather just get a HUD notification of some sort. |

The problem here is that this game, especially when you have lots of guests open, just has too many triggers for dialogue.
If you want to hear everything you have to stop moving, scanning, whatever.

I hate this, too. But more often, as soon as they get into the Nomad, I hear the last line of an apparent conversation. And so far, it never comes up again, so I miss the whole thing.

I've missed so much dialogue because of SAM.  Also, personally I feel there's too much hand holding from SAM's part. "There's a data pad near you... there's a plant/rock near you... you need more glyphs... you need to scan... there's console near you... you need to blah, blah, blah, blah..."  |

"There's a data pad near you... there's a plant/rock near you... you need more glyphs... you need to scan... there's console near you... you need to blah, blah, blah, blah..." Yep, could do without that after, say 100 plus hours in game. Seriously, I know it's hot dammit! Also, I had a broken banter between Cora and Jaal about AI. I only heard Cora, not him and even the subtitles showed only her side. Very weird. I wasn't even near a combat zone, just up in the Kadara hills trying to, er, 'Skyrim' my way over some mountains  But on reloading, same banter is still broken. Hmm . . . Thank fully others work just fine. I noticed too, after being on a world for a while they run out of things to say until I get to another one. |
