1. I have a mic that has worked for every other game on my PS3 but does not seem to be linking correctly with Dust. When you see the names ingame and see a speech buble with a Xin it beside yours does that mean your mic is not working? And is there anything special I have to do to make my mic work with Dust?

4. I really like machine guns. I use them in every FPS I play. They are the first thing I garb. Is it a bad thing that I have already started specing my SP into being able to run HMG? and what other then the Amarr Heavy Dropsuits and HMGs should I be putting sp into to make it run well? Already have the Advance HMG. And what side arm will help me at long range?(P.S. yes I tryed the Assult HMG, I put it right back down due to the dmg it lacks, my normal HMG kills much faster and feels better to me).

5. I have heard Dust Univestity is a good corp for new players, how do you join a Corp?

6. Really stupid question but others have probably thought the same thing. I have never played Eve but a friend of mine in high school did. Told me abou the power of the Titans Doomsday weapon. Since ships in Eve can fire Orbital strikes at us I am wondering, what happens if a Titan happens to be in orbit and happens to fire the Doomsday weapon while we are fighting on the ground of the planet the Titan is orbiting?

Thats all, and thank you, really enjoying Dust so far. Beware of my HMG and of the bumper of my LAV.

The X simply means you can't hear yourself. You'll know your mic is working if there is a mic icon in the bottom right corner of the screen. This is on whenever people can hear you (if you're using push to talk, this will only be on when you use the PTT button)

If there isn't one, search around in settings on the neocom (start menu). There should be an option to toggle voice chat and push to talk.

I suggest turning push to talk on. All it does is make it so people can only hear you when you're holding down the PTT button (if you have a ps3 controller, it'll be the left button on the D-pad). You should use it because it's obnoxious otherwise. People who don't use PTT ALWAYS clog up voice chat with unintended noise, and just about everyone who's listening to voice chat wants to crawl through the internets and strangle them.
