06.04.2021, 04:32 - Ripper - Leading Aircraftman - 3 Posts I'm new to multiplayer (last i played was back when Vista was still being used, not fun). anyway, i'm asking because i don't use the Mic often with my headset, is it required or can i just use chat? in addition, why is it that when i do chat, no one responds? it's just radio spam. thanks in advance. Do i need to be in a team here or what? what do i do?

I never bother plugging a headset in and it's only recently I even noticed anyone using VOIP, mainly two man attack heli teams. It's quite rare for anyone to use their mic to talk in squads nowadays, I just type if I need to say anything, personally.

I find that it is hard to follow the in game chat while i try to survive in the virtual field, so yes, voip is better if you want to be recognised. You don't need to be in a team, but i will recommend it especially if you are "new" to the game or the server. The more expereanced guy often like to lead a squad and be a good base (spawnpoint) to stay in game and do something usefull. But all this is sure only my opinion. Heal you later @Ripper . P.S. This is not Project Reality and nobody will look or point on you if you don't talk back on voip or respond in chat or play all alone. [ALIGN=center][img]https://i.imgur.com/vgrSKRc.gif[/img][/ALIGN]
