How many players use mics and or headsets? Before you pick your spawn hit select button to open chat highlight team tab. then hit x button activate voice. d-pad left to the team look for a squad with open spots and fill them by highlighting empty slot in said squad and hit x button. Know I know maybe you only have 3 friends and don't want to split up thats fine message that poor dude all alone in their own squad ask them to join you. |

Over the last two weeks it has been very difficult to find anybody besides myself in the entire Team that is using a mic.
After finally buying mine and making my firewall get along with CCP and Sony it is frustrating.
I suspect the one person in a team is tied to people being in a squad and others leaving it. The Battle Finder doesn't seem to like to add Blues after that. Unfortunately I haven't got decent data on this and I would only call it a hunch as of now. Just today I actively did the Leave Squad option and the very next match I was in a 5/5 squad. Who knows? |

This problem is caused by corp chat, if you see guys of the same corp in one squad they have voice activated on the corp channel. They probably do have headsets but use the voicechat in another channel I already suggested they automatically switch to teamchat at the start of the game and have a quick select button to switch through channels.
Incidentally, our corp is looking for new players, you can apply here: www.rndclan.com/recruitment |

Can someone take a step back and explain to me what Squads have to do with voice chat?
I sort of assumed that if you had voice chat turned on and you spoke in a match that everyone with voice chat turned on would hear me. I am guessing from this post that this is not the case?
Is it only your squad that can hear you or something? Am I just talking to myself? I had one game where I was talking with three or four other people, but someone else seemed to have set that up. |

In the fight you can switch between TEAM chat and SQUAD chat.
Team chat is the whole, well, team on your side and you can chat with everybody there.
Squad chat is only the squad you are in with max. 3 other people.

I have a mic, but since I never hear anyone using a mic, I never bother to hook mine up ... |

I literally just played my first few matches an hour ago and I must say I was troubled by this problem as well.
I would attempt to join a squad of 2 or 3 then they just leave, WTF, is this kindergarten and I have cooties?
In 4 separate lobbies of 16, nobody has a mic? Seriously a game this dependant on teamwork and hardly anyone is on com's? I've played a lifetimes worth of BF3 and will tell you squad communication and teamwork will trump skill at every turn, and seeing nearly all my team play as the lone wolf does not make me want to play again. |

You won't find anyone else with mics in a pub match, you need to join a squad then jump in game. Try the LFSquad chat room but be sure to have your mic set up. |
