Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 14:50:00 - [1] - Quote As the title says. Why the hell am I the only person using comms EVERY game? Quite honestly, it's a vital part of the game. Fail. I mean wtf? eRage over. Getcha mics on Getcha voice on Getcha push to talk off
Icy Tiger 496	Posted - 2012.08.18 14:52:00 - [2] - Quote Off by default kinda sucks too.
theschizogenious KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 167	Posted - 2012.08.18 14:56:00 - [3] - Quote tony bro i suggest you start playing with rofl again if you want mics theyre the only people ive played with who are talking in the game.
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 15:03:00 - [4] - Quote Or people could use their mics. The whole point Schiz is for random vs clan. Without mics, randoms are doomed. So, GETCHA MICS ON EVERYONE. And I'm not playing with you guys because you abandoned me to teamspeak. Diaf (just messing, but that did **** me the hell off).
Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.08.18 15:36:00 - [5] - Quote Voice off by default. Push to talk on by default, with no mention in the patch notes even though this was newly-added. Neither of these is a good idea, but at least you have those options if you want them.
TEBOW BAGGINS FIREFLY ATLANTIS ENTERPRISES UNLIMITED TACNET 549	Posted - 2012.08.18 15:41:00 - [6] - Quote i gave up last night on comms no one was using them and my random team was generally sucking at team play anyway. i wrote it off to people being tired it was late USA time..
TheReaper545 21	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:02:00 - [7] - Quote I was playing with ROFL last night and all we use is ts3 with some people running both ;).
Raynor Ragna 266	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:06:00 - [8] - Quote Does anyone know if a usb dongle works on the PS3? Now with a KBM, I can't use the headset.
TEBOW BAGGINS FIREFLY ATLANTIS ENTERPRISES UNLIMITED TACNET 549	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:07:00 - [9] - Quote nice.. didnt even think about TS3.. that means I could return my USB mic to radio shack if I really need some cash and use the one with the 3.5 jack.. thanks for the headsup BTW the way guys radio shack has an awesome little USB clip on mic thats also a 3.5 to USB converter.. for about $18
Stefan Jacobs Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 10	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:07:00 - [10] - Quote I agree. I hate it that nobody is on comms. It means you have to rely on squad command orders for any teamwork, and mostly nobody pays attention to those anyway. Hell squad leaders may not even be aware they're in charge. I always have to double check. Voice needs to be on by default, and not on push to talk. Make it an opt out not an opt in system.

Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:09:00 - [11] - Quote Yeah, that's why I left the part of Rofl I was going to be involved in. Because you aren using voice comms. Idiots. What about those who dont have a computer strapped to their face? Using teamspeak is suicide for the game.
Grit Breather BetaMax. 660	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:14:00 - [12] - Quote I'd just like to point out that myself and my squad are 100% on comms but only on the squad channel. Trying to run ANYTHING on the team channel is doomed due to the amount of garbage on it. Team comms should be reserved for squad leaders only and there should be a multiple-listen option. Until then I'm staying in squad comms.
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 16:19:00 - [13] - Quote Yeah, that why when I was shouting at you to effin drive earlier Grit, you did nothing. I walked to the objective before you did anything. Good job. USE TEAM! There's no garbage on team because no one talks. Just tell people to shut up about their cat.
Talneck Balder British Federation Sleepless Knights Alliance 21	Posted - 2012.08.18 17:00:00 - [14] - Quote I agree we need better com options , before the latest big upgrade those on team with coms you could hear now its like a ghost town , not sure if its something im doing or the upgrade or everyone going on teamspeak but its certainly taken some of the fun out the game, used to love some of the random comments not to mention a nice way to start meeting and getting to know people. Occasionly you might hear someone but its now a rarity compared to before.It needs to made simple and obvious so casual players can get in and set up chat easy . As for team leaders maybe a double arrow above their heads not just one to help highlight who is and isnt ?
Ad ski IMPSwarm Negative-Feedback 209	Posted - 2012.08.18 17:13:00 - [15] - Quote I try and avoid playing on my own but even in the IRC you can struggle to find people to group up with. Most games I get into on my own I'm the only one who uses a mic.
xprotoman23 Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 1452	Posted - 2012.08.18 17:20:00 - [16] - Quote This game truly has the most ******** player base kids can't even hack points
Aighun Zumari Force Projection Caldari State 666	Posted - 2012.08.18 17:22:00 - [17] - Quote Raynor Ragna wrote: Does anyone know if a usb dongle works on the PS3?

Unfortunately mine melted and the new models... well... cheap bastards.

Now with a KBM, I can't use the headset. I was looking into getting a k/b and mouse until i saw I only had the 2 usb ports. After some searching I found some usb hubs that plug into the two ports to give you four. Look up ps3 usb hub

Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 17:31:00 - [21] - Quote It's just the frustration of having an overly complicated comm system. MAG comms > Dust comms CCP should just ask Sony nicely.

MAG comms > Dust comms CCP should just ask Sony nicely. MAG had a great squad system (i played years ago when it first came out) i loved having the abilty to call in awesome stuff only higher levels had a chance to be squad leader/platoon leader too helped with chain of command and also idk how to use squad commands on here so if someone could tell me :P im rarely squad leader though
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 18:00:00 - [27] - Quote It's overly complicated too. Open map. Hold X on an objective/asset, it'll open a radial menu type thing, then choose what you want to do. Not like MAG. Left on dpad + r1. Objective set :D

I, personally just use the down arrow on the direction pad to bring up the squad command menu in-game, but according to the manual, you can also access it by using R2: "Press the R2 button to bring up the weapon switch window. Use the left analog stick to select the squad menu icon to bring up the squad command menu. From the squad command menu, you can give attack, defend or rally orders to your squad by selecting the an objective that you wish your squad to move to."
LIEUTENANT JORDAN BetaMax. 7	Posted - 2012.08.18 18:12:00 - [30] - Quote You can also use squad commands buy holding R2 and clicking the right stick . It faster and easier. Also go on your local corp chat and squad up with other corp members. That what i do. If the corp members who join you squad dont have their mics on tell them how to turn it on. (I have also found that sometimes its mutes my own mic if i turn push too talk off so i have to talk with push to talk on) Lets get some teamwork going.

JoshuaEvil666 The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar 33	Posted - 2012.08.18 18:12:00 - [31] - Quote i use my mic but only in my squads with my m8s wich if im in a game im usually with them so :P just because we dont talk to everyonelese does not mean we do not use coms
Tony Calif Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 2002	Posted - 2012.08.18 18:27:00 - [32] - Quote Actually that's exactly what it means. If I can't communicate with atleast 1 member of your squad, I can't ask you to support me, and I can't ask you if you want to sit in my tank ect ect the list goes on. Atleast check team comms at the start of a game. If there's another squad on comms you can just set areas to control (a & b).
Mo Gallas Gentralde Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 178	Posted - 2012.08.18 18:31:00 - [33] - Quote Just have to put in here a note: Half of all the available headsets on the market do not work with DUST. Mine does not work either... and now that I think about it I should probably get its name and make a bug report for my particular set...

Brick Schitthawse Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 17	Posted - 2012.08.18 19:32:00 - [36] - Quote It would also be great if members of your squad also try to converge on the rally point/target as well.
Maximum Payn Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 0	Posted - 2012.08.18 20:00:00 - [37] - Quote Still trying to get the hang of this game, but I'll have to get my Bluetooth PS3 ear piece working I guess. :-)

That's because you were in our way and I was just waiting for you to get out. My squad was working on a 2 LAV attack formation tactic. We were practicing and you just jumped in. After you jumped out we moved to secure A I believe.
