Guess I have been lucky. I've never been in a single ME3 multiplayer match where someone said anything bad about the other person or to me. I'm playing on xbox btw and most games (especially Halo games) get a lot of ragers and haters.

People in Mass Effect seem pretty chill overall.

Last night I was in a group with some dudes and me and this other guy have experience in medical emergencies and traumas (I'm an EMT, he was a rescuer during/after Hurricane Katrina) so we went on chatting about death people when one of the other guys interrupted "people on XBL usually talk about movies or pizza, not dead people. that's creepy". What nerve to interrupt! I've never felt so offended in my life!

You know what? Quarians offend me, how do I know they're not making faces under there? I sorry but this discussion can be fixed... MUTE!


On the PC, you can not mute other players, only yourself.  There have been multiple times where I have wished to be able to mute others.  (Although it is only a small percentage, it is a VERY vocal percentage.)


Ummmm. not true on PC.  Go to options/sound/voice mode and /Force Voice Chat Audio

For the first choose No Voice, and for the second choose Off.  No audio chat from you or anyone else - just the sounds of the game. 

It's my default.  I'm frankly afraid of what I'll hear if I were to listen in to the conversations going on in a random game.  Better to fill in the blanks in my own head. Image IPB


Yes, but conversation with team mates is a valuable part of the game, especially on Gold.  The only thing I have ever been jelous of regarding XBox is the ability to selectively mute other players mid-game.

I played a game where no one talked except for one guy. And by "talked", I really mean "farted constantly into his mic and laughed as if it was the funniest thing''.

See, I get that it's part and parcel of the whole experience, but I don't think it should go ignored. People are idiots because they can get away with being idiots. If other people call them out on their idiocy and they possibly have consequences for their stupidity (shock, HORROR!) maybe, JUST MAYBE they won't be idiots any longer.

It's a forlorn and wistful longing, but allow me my illusions.

Stupid opinions/thoughts should be taken for the stupidity they exhibit buit all this talk about punishing people for non PC talk alone is bull. If it rises to the level of harassment then something needs to be done but just saying offcolor remarks should be no skin off of my nose or your nose.

Two solutions, both require a mic (which you should have in the first goddamn place these days)

1. Turn mic on, mute incoming sounds.
2. Turn mic on, play your favorite music/soundboard/pr0n (>_>)/movie. LOUDLY. ???. Profit.

no... they are not idiots... this is a video game... not a board meeting... it's a mean to have some fun, relax and blow off some steam...

just wondering here, what are your qualifications to be the intelligence and moral police?

the world needs idiots... if the whole world would be smart, we would all be screwed... someone needs to cut my lawn and make my burger... the world cannot consist of only smart people because things that require dumb people doing them would never get done... when someone is mean to me, I know that I have much better friends/family, girlfriend, education, job, apartment, car, success, etc... and they have a microphone... deal with it... the world doesn't have a mute option...

A couple of nights ago(on the PS3), I encountered a guy making noises like uh...he was touching himself. He also kept using the voice changer so one minute he sounded like a high-pitched hamster, the next he sounded like a perverted elcor.

So lucky my headset had a mute slider.

Hahahaha no. If someone's method of "having fun" is stopping other people from having fun by being offensive (and for the record, goofing off and making fart noises, which I could very easily have coped with, was NOT the problem here, the person made very specific, very hurtful remarks that I'm not allowed to post in this forum) then it's not acceptable.

The world doesn't need idiots, it just happens to have a lot of them. Wouldn't it be nice if they weren't stuck in idiothood for their entire lives?

I totally think the world NEEDS idiots... like I said... if everyone is smart, who will cut my lawn and cook my burger? I'm not doing it... the guy with a PhD is not doing it either... the guy who didn't graduate HS is though...

I don't think people should clamp down on you being a morale police or judge of some sorts. I don't think that is your intention. From what I understand, it is basically how to deal with these nuisances. Sure we cannot control what other people and such but there are steps to minimize it.

Without going on a roundabout story, I too play on the PC platform and thankfully I have not come across any unruly behaved players. This may largely be due to the fact that my timezone is very much different from US/Canada one. That aside, may I suggest having at least one or two other semi-consistent or consistent friends to play with and to host your games. This is so that you have loosely say that it is 'your' lobby and with one or two other you have enough kick power to remove any unruly players.

This may not be always the case and often times you may just have to PuG (Pick up Group) it. When PuGing, there is little that can be done regarding the risks involved. Either turn down the in game volume and crank up music or just leave. Between sanity of mind and a couple of credits, I believe the better choice would be sanity of mind.

@Tatsumaki That's what I've come to think is the best option. I live in a different timezone to most players as well, and I've got a few friends who play with me on my timezone, but there's nearly always one or two slots free and sometimes I just want a quick game and don't have time to coordinate my friends to play with me so I'll happily go into a random match.

And yes, the original enquiry was simply to find out if there was some way of reporting disgusting behaviour and/or blocking certain players. I've got a pen and paper next to my computer now and I'll just jot down any names of players who I don't want to play with and avoid them in the future. Also as I said, this has only happened ONCE in months of playing, so it's not as though I'm feeling persecuted and considering the things I've heard about from other online games I think ME3 players should be lauded for their lack of idiocy.

And to Exs11 - I've done all those jobs in my time, and I have a post graduate degree. You don't have to be an idiot to do them, or even to WANT to do them. Sometimes need dictates.

so far i have only had one really bad experience. it was two nights ago. dude was in England and he was hosting. the rest of us were having terrible terrible lag. 3 people quit..not at once..but one after the other...with people joining mid wave. Dude was playing an infiltrator and outscoring us like it was going out of style. He was the only one able to revive people...cuz if the others were like me...everytime we hit revive..there was a long pause like it didnt go through so you hit it again...a second later it shows you start and stop the revive. by the time you start again you are being swarmed and killed. in the 9th round dude went down first....one guy tried to revive him but got downed. the 3rd guy got downed on the other side of the map. I went to revive dude...by this time 2 atlas' and untold number of troopers were nearby. As soon as i hit revive i went down. i didnt even try to medgel cuz no once was trying to. Dude hopped on the mic and started calling everyone pathetic and how he didnt need us on HIS team and how he was going to beat us up in real life. So i hopped on my mic and called him the C-word cuz that was how he was acting. he then went on bout my N7 ranking and X weapons. i think he was sour...and a poor sport. i wish i would have took down his gamertag.

This is why i dont use a mic unless it is a private party. it why i mute everyone else. If i wasnt playing on gold i wouldnt have even heard a thing he said.

@corporal doody That sounds remarkably similar to what happened in my game, except my dude was American. Obviously there's a certain "type" of player :D.

I've probably played 100++ games by now, and I've only ever come across one person who was very rude. Of course he sounded like the stereotypical pre-pubescent American moron who had a pathological hatred for vanguards (which I was playing at the time). Ok...I understand how vanguards can be annoying, but this guy had 'issues'. It's a shame you can't mute them in-game, and I don't want to play in silence because sound is a very important (and fun) part of the game to me. So I just left the match and sent an apology to other 2 guys. Funnily enough, they left the match not long after me because the kid just shifted his attention onto them for abuse because he wasn't 'winning'. I guess his warlock status was revoked.

This is, afterall, just a game and life is way too short to waste it having to put up with numpties like that. Still, ME3 MP is populated by very decent folk overall. Yay for us!
