Arrow icon

I have a permanent arrow icon over. me during gameplay & also a speaker icon in lobby. I hear & seem to play with the same people. HACKED

:)

 

This type of stuff really grinds my gears, if it's true (Destiny related)



This is the best response to shut the scam down.

On what console are you playing and what game are you playing?

Do you use a headset? If so, which headset are you using?

 

Apologies for the lack of info . Cod WW2 on xbox 1 & using a steelseries basic headset.

 

A speaker icon in the lobby indicates that the console is picking up sound from the headset.

Can you create a party chat, and check the circle around your Gamerpic, when you unplug the headset and plug it in again?

Do you get a narrow circle border around your Gamerpic with the headset removed, and is the circle wider/thicker when you plug the headset in?

Does the circle get thicker/thinner when you talk and pause talking, or does it stay thick all the time?

If the circle in the party stays thick all the time while your headset is connected, you might have an electrical ground problem, where the headset is humming constantly.

If you talk (or otherwise sound is picked up by the microphone), games will indicate who is talking by having a speaker icon next to their name, or above their character.

Usually, only your team mates will see this indicator, so the enemy team can't see your location, even if you talk to your team mates.

 

Hey Q775Q775! Thank you for reaching out to us. Our Ambassador above posted some great information about indicators and when they should be seen on your screen. Generally, if something is on the screen that shouldn't be there, it could be the console's
software is displaying the incorrect icon or picture, and a simple
hard reset and powercycle should resolve that issue. If the issue persists, then maybe the console's operating system may need to be reset. You can perform a

soft factory reset to initiate that, but also keep all of your content still downloaded. Let us know the results!

 

Thank. you for the reply. I have resolved the speaker issue (faulty headset) but after performing a soft factory reset the arrow icon is still present in game which gives my position away saying please shoot me. THOUGHTS

 

Are you sure the arrowicon is visible to the enemy player?

Since the Xbox One uses encrypted network traffic unlike the Xbox 360, and since the console isn't hacked yet, it's highly unlikely that the arrow is there because of a modified or hacked game. Depending on the game mode, the arrow might be there for members
of your team to see your position, but invisible to the enemy team.

 

Good point. If the arrow is still there in different lobbies then I’d say it’s supposed to be there.
