I fixed it by reinstalling over steam, took some time But yeah the sound is weried i have to look some specail ways to hear anything in a convesation. Ohh well patches will come to fix it, i hope at least
The reason you have to look in different directions to hear conversation is probably that you have your sound output set to 5.1 (surround sound) but you are only using two speakers (headphones, maybe). Conversations are usually routed to the "center" channel in 5.1 sound, and that channel doesn't exist if you're only using two speakers.
Try right-clicking the little speaker icon in your tray and go from there. You should be able to put your sound into stereo. You'll have to do this BEFORE launching the game, not while it's running. Good luck!
(It's happened to me before, and this worked for me.)
