Sometimes VOIP doesn't work effectively. So most of us are on TS while playing. You can't play PR without effective communication. Information is so important on the battlefield.

It sucks being in a squad where a couple of guys dont have it...sure they can type but its just not as good. Also seems like guys with VOIP are more accountable being that you are talking to them directly. Decent squadies, all with VOIP are MUCH better in action...especially when it gets tense.

Also, the #1 crapper...SL without VOIP??? Stupid...

I believe that some ppl dont have mic coz their english isnt the best in the world. Me myself i have to talk REALLY slowly for ppl to understand what i say. Btw, you british guys with VOIP should do the same. It's nearly impossible to hear what many of you say.

I often see squads named: "VOIP GERMAN" or "FRENCH - MIC".
Seems to be working?

I broke my mic along with the headset it was attached to.

One thing I learned a long long long time ago during my short stint was to "keep your mouth shut , listen and pay attention"..which I do.

May not be the most conversational player but don't hesitate to call out key factors.. ie "contact north..unidentified.. 4 infantry LAV support.. engaging.." then use the re-spawn time to get another beer , but at least I warned my squad.

What I hate..and hate the MOST..is servers that use 3rd part voice software (TS,Vent etc.). Usually it's a mass of confusion as you can hear everyone chatting and if you don't have it running and logged on , you may as well unplug your mic and go solo.

Nothing wrong with the built in VOIP..all you need to play a good game. Never had any problems with it.

i used to have logitech ones (£20) but i snapped them in a fit of anger after losing my abrams to a mine! so i bought: Technika Headset + Mic for £9.97 (correct @ time of typing this) and they are great, comfortable as well, from Tesco.com

Not many PC gadgeds can beat a good headset. That's why I payed for quality. And quality and desing is what you get when you go for German Sennheiser.

Do you like a good mic and extraordinary good sound then go for Sennheiser.

VT is better Anyway, i just cant get the VOIP to work right now. I press "B" or "V" or whatever but nothing happends.

I had a mic headset, until the headset got caught on the chair, my foot caught the wire, and the plug in the back of the PC didn't give....
Hilarity ensued (and a painful physics lesson), and the wire snapped from the headset. I'm going out tomorrow and getting a new one, maybe even investing in a wireless one....
