I try to. I'm never sure if anyone hears me or is listening, though. :pinched:

...I usually warn people about the phantom that just killed me or say thanks if they revive me. It is very rare to hear a reply though which is a shame.


I hear ya.

I know about you, you don't know about me. For all I know, you might be a drug lord.
I have nothing to say to you, I don't need to listen to anything that you say. I'm not disturbing anyone by not using a mic (instead, people with mic constantly disturb other players during game).

I probably would if everyone wasn't such a douche.

And it's nice when there's someone on mic that will warn you about something that you don't see, but that rarely happens for me.

Voice chat is quite rare on the PS3 (even more so in PUGs), I assume because the PS3's don't come with a headset packaged.

I unfortunately don't have a mic yet, but if I did I would use it.

All the time. I've possibly scared people away from lobbies with how much my gaming buddy and I chatter (and howl with laughter) over mic...

It probably doesn't help that we talk in Afrikaans the whole time, only switching to English for warnings/thanks in game.

things have changed quite a bit since ME3 first came out. More people seemed to chat more often then. I didn't know any of the friends I play ME3 with before I started playing ME3. I met a couple of them in a random match, and our playing styles and personalities meshed well. Added them as friends and we kept playing. I met some of their friends and added them, and we met some new people online and added them. Now, I have a nice list of people I can play ME3 with, and we always use the mic.

Now, however, it's a rare case to chat with randoms playing ME3. Either they're in a chat with others (the case for me at times), or they're simply not chatting period. If I see that mics are plugged in and it's not late at night, I'll normally make a quick comment like "anyone on game chat?". If I get a response, the mic stays plugged in. If not, I unplug and take the headset off.

I would use it if it actually worked. It used to work sporadically, now it doesn't even work anymore, so it's back to skype.

I only works for max 50% of PC users. And even then the audio quality and mixing is so poor that it is nearly impossible to hear what others are saying. Thus no one speaks in PC random groups; there is just no point. With friends I use mumble.

I use it to express my annoyance at usually being the only one to use missiles in a match where I'm carrying the rest. Apparently 3 phantoms and an Atlas rushing your lone face in while you're almost done recovering the last object on wave 10 is too confusing a signal to try to use a damned rocket, but Derpina has no hesitation to then spam medi-gels as he's getting gangbanged by the Phantoms and Atlas on top of his corpse.

Don't have a mic right now, so no. I find very little talk on PC. It can be nice when it does happen, though.

My mic is always in when I'm playing MP.

However, I am always in an Xbox Live Party, talking with friends that may or may not be playing MP with me at the moment.

If I don't respond to you - It's not because I'm being rude. I can't hear you. =D

I use comms (PS3) but am often the only one, or i really dont want to talk to people who do have comms on.

not sure anyone knows I actually work for BioWare though


Probably a good thing:  in public games you'd likely be hassled worse than a hot-sounding woman...  
Ahh the joys of playing online games :?

The games that I truly enjoyed were the matches where there was talking.
The other time where there was conversation was in a foreign language or some creep trying to sound like batman..

I use both, but much prefer to use teamspeak in favour of the in-game voice chat when possible.

Voice chat alternatives work much better than the in-game and also allow you to keep talking when the game borks for reasons unknown, disconnects and the like. This of course actually works in dedicated gamer groups when it comes to ME3MP and much less so with random games.

But if you do play with friends a lot, try using alternatives to the in-game voice chat and hear the difference, then have fun while playing.

I kinda have to, since they forgot to implement text chat. I'm usually the only person on the team talking, but even then it's minor things. I thank people who revive me and I warn people for turrets.

I do. A fair amount.

If no one else has a mic on in the lobby I'll just mute my own. I also tend to just go quite a bit, especially in rough spots. It would be nice to encounter more talking groups (I wish I could set the lobby to "mics only" or something to weed out those who don't even bother plugging in a mic.)

I use it rarely. If there are other poeple who talk I usually start talking too.

The fact that the game doesn't have text chat is still a complete joke.

You need to have at least 3 people in the group who don't have strict NAT or have turned UPNP on or forwarded UDP port 3659 manually to their PC and configured their firewall to accept incoming connections or you will have people who can't hear each other. Host will ALWAYS hear everybody but other peers may have problems hearing each other.

Half the time VC doesn't even work.  Works fine in every other online game I play.  When I am in lobby & try to communicate with my team the little voice icon doesn't always animate & I get no response from my team.

No I'm not muted, nor have I changed any settings.  It simply doesn't work 50% of the time so I generally don't use it.
