Voice chat in multiplayer?

SeaCat · #1 07-01-2009, 02:33 AM

Just curious if there'll be voice chat in multiplayer, and if so, any way to mute certain players so you can't hear them? I have the PS3 bluetooth mic from when I bought SOCOM, and it works great, but some people have some horrible mics that sound terrible, and I like to put them on mute so I don't have to hear all the background noise.
Follow-up question, if there is voice chat, will it be push-to-talk or will it always be broadcasting?

Both yes.
In Xbox360, that's actually a requirement.
And this is one of the reasons we have only 16 players - voicechat eats a lot of bandwith, and the game is required to run on 64kbit.

Awesome, glad to hear it!

oh great! thanks For clearing that up,

But what SeaCat said, will it have push to talk or will it be constantly broadcasting?

If its for 360, its whatever you've set your mic up to be. Online chat etc is part of the TRC's M$ have for games.
