Yeah if you wanna do that, but you shouldn't. Just press start button when your online in a game and put the voice mod thing on.

ok i will check it out, wont use it though!

yeah well, every 4 rounds or so, but mainly when i enter a game for the first time when i log on the headset icon has that circle with the line in it indicating it doesnt work, and the beeps dont come.

I also see it when a room is choca bloc, could that make a difference because of slower connections etc? My broadband is 2mb though.

NOrmally if the headset doesnt work, it wont work in that particular game until i think the host changes? But the other rooms will work fine.

Well I play socom2 a lot and it always lets me talk. Maybe one game when the host is horrible i cant talk, but that's kind rare to happen. Its could be your mic is messed up, like your cord inside has to be in a certain postion to work. Or it could be something this link may help you with http://www.socom3.com/socom3/viewtopic.php?t=744

dude, you'll meet some awesome guys around the SOCOM universe.. join a clan, and yes, it'll be worth it.

If you're in public rooms, I don't really know. Half the time I don't even have the mic on my head.. but without a mic, sometimes you'll get voted out. A mic usually prevents this.

SOCOM3, you'll need a headset. The maps are so huge, you'll need to know exact locations.

Why did you say for once? Do you play in the international server or North America server? Because not many people speak different languages in the North America server unless you go to Clan Games, lots of Clan Games rooms names are like Puerto Rico or Mexicans ands rooms like that.

no i go in the EU west rooms.

thats the only one people seem to be in
