Why can friends not join?
The host must be running the world because the save belongs to that host. A previous join code may no longer work: Panic says a new code is generated whenever the host starts a session.
- Confirm the correct host and save
- Generate and copy the current join code
- Update every platform build
- Retry through the platform friends list
Why is voice quiet or missing?
Big Walk intentionally fades voices over distance and filters them through walls and corridors. Test while standing close, confirm the selected microphone, raise the in-game voice setting, and use text chat while diagnosing. Editorial patch reporting says volume was adjusted without removing the distance-based design.
Frequently asked questions
Why did yesterday's join code stop working?
The official FAQ says a new join code is generated every time the host starts a session.
Why can I only hear nearby players?
That is an intentional proximity-voice feature. If nearby players are also inaudible, check the selected input device and current game version.
