Most the time I don't like when people are BSing in team chat, team chat should be game specific and tactical talk , for the most part.
This is what makes private chat nice....You and a budy can BS while playen the game together.
Most often I always try and play on the same team and my friend, so I don't understand the difference (if on same team) of me telling him where a person is , using team chat vs private chat.
But WHATEVER......

So IW is going to force me to listen to all those little racist shits when I play online? I'd rather talk to my friends. Just because I sit in a party with my friends doesn't mean we're cheating. It means we don't want to listen to others or have others listen to our conversation. If IW is doing this... I won't be playing online with it much. I play games online with my friends and if I can't enjoy their company while I play... I won't.
A feck you in advanced MS & IW.

Now that people CAN'T private chat (and most likely party chat) , ALL that chatting will be going on all in the same room, so people that do want to play tactically , will get to hear all about "Larrys new dog Spot" (amongst a million other things)
Can you please include an update that gives users one click "MUTE ALL" feature, PLEASE! (I'd still like to hear the game , just not ALL the chat)

Has anyone actually confirmed this with IW or is it just like a rumor at this point? I see the picture but that could easily be photo shopped. And with no real source i am a little skeptical.

You can't expect games to mimic real life. If so, how come you can take several rifle rounds and your health regenerates? In reality you'd be dead or on the ground getting treated.

Get used to alot of STATIC noise guys!
On the ps3 verion they didn't have any way to MUTE ANYONE...so everyone just put on there bluetooth, set voice to output through headset only, and then set the thing on the desk or counter....which caused a tremendous amount of static feedback through everyone elses headsets.
I have a feeling this same thing will be done now.

I'm guessing IW wanted it this way & MS had to agree as it is such a high profile title & don't wanna spoil relations.
Good thing i don't give a sh*t about COD 4 MW 2 multiplayer.
Any chance the next game will be called Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare 3 Part 1.
I mean, can they get any more numbers into the title? - they'll be rivaling Final Fantasy soon enough

Just go into privacy settings and set voice to friends only. I have had my account set this way for about a year.
I mostly stopped using the headset cause the quality is so much worse than original one it would cut off sentences when my friends and I were talking.
Now I call them on cell with bluetooth for the most part.
This still sucks though def a step in the wrong direction. Kinda reminds me of ghost recon 2 chat. Which chat was annoying more than anything.

. What kind of BS. is this ? I mean why change the this option? This is not a PS3 system, it's a X360 console. Don't take a step backwards. You guys can do this another way. What's to stop me from calling my friends on the phone and doing the same thing? Answer.. NOTHING!!! I mean if push comes to shove we can chat using non xblive options. I prefer the live option. So. if you change this, You will have over a few million complainers to deal with on a daily basis. I guess M$ and infinity ward really want to piss off Xblive users. I will complain about this on the xbox.com forums and infinity wards forums. I'd advise all of you to do the same. Once they get a few million complaints, they'll change it back or wish they would have.

Ghosting
Ghosting or "to ghost" is The act of one or more dead players spectating an alive enemy player, with the intent of revealing his or her actions or location to their alive comrades, giving them an unfair situational advantage. This is achieved usually through a voice chat program, such as Ventrillo, or an IRC client.
Ghosting may also be referred to as as "Venting" in popular games like Counter-Strike. The term derives from the most popular method of ghosting in Counter-Strike, which is to use the program Ventrillo, "venting" is short for "ventrillo-ing" meaning Using Ventrillo to ghost

I think they have implemented it poorly though, while I am for the result - it can definitely be done in a way that doesn't ruin peoples gameplay. For instance, when you die then you can only spec first person of people on your team, that way you don't get to see any more or less than them.
I used to play CS a lot and it did get on your nerves when just playing solo and there'd be two or three clan members tagged, that were obviously using TS2 to communicate after death and when it came down to 1 v 1 you were just at such a disadvantage.
A lot of the fixes implemented for CS though were server side configured, i.e. it was up to the server admin what gametype they were hosting.

Not all 'M' rated games are rated 'M' for the same reason.
COD is rated M for depictions of violence, not for language. I grew up on violent movies, and cartoons, but those movies/cartoons also didn't contain depictions of sex and/or foul language (movies may have the occasional word, but usually "lesser" swear words).
I really don't see anything in the Call of Duty game itself that a typical 9 year old couldn't handle. Hell, there's not even really any blood or gore or anything (even tho the rating says there is, I didn't really notice a lot).

I do agree with you and a lot of other people on here on the fact that there are a lot of retarded, racist, immature idiots on xbox live that should not have the right to speak through a mic. This is FACT!
Also I am sure that they will have some disable mic feature for certain people in these games that you can disable individually. (For people who are not promoting teamwork by singing or unnecessary mic disruptions will in a room)
Here is where I DISAGREE.
Certain games like COD Modern Warfare 2 and other alike games are Violent\Adult Games that SHOULD NOT be played by a KID. That's why games come with ratings like "M" that the kids ELDERS\PARENTS always choose not to follow (Movies are the same way). In the Military there is Swearing, Racial Slurs, Violence, Killing etc. You can only expect games like these to attract people who enjoy this. THE GAMES THEMSELVES HAVE SWEARING BUILT INTO IT BY THE DEVOLOPERS!
The developers of these types of games are also just trying to better promote Teamwork by Making people on the same Team talk to each other and work together which is what the game is all about in multilayer online mode. I know I speak for a lot of true gamers that hate when you got guys on your team that are not talking to help complete the objective and goals of the team. Talking improves the overall experience of the game and restricting chat to only team members helps stop cheaters that are dead yelling out locations of live players to their friends of private chat.
Also the over racist retards don't bother me because I am an adult and they are just words from idiotic people. So teach your kids how to deal with it cuz that's how it is in games like these. I know how to block them out. Also if the F word slips out when i get killed then I should have to worry about some 9 year old's feelings getting hurt. I am an ADULT and the game is rated for ADULTS ONLY FOR A REASON. We should not have to watch what I say because there are children in the room. Granted Racist remarks are not a good thing but I am mature enough to pay it absolutely no attention and in fact just laugh when people bring it out..(YOU WOULDN'T LET YOUR KIDS HAND OUT AT NIGHT PARTING WITH OLDER TEENS AND ADULTS SO WHY WOULD YOU LET THEM PLAY VIOLENT ADULT GAMES WITH TEENS\ADULTS?)
SO, You wanna protect daddy's little 9 year old's precious ears and feelings?... SIMPLE!
1. Take away his mic when playing violent games rated for adults that attract adults
2. Buy them a Wii. "That is a more child friendly system) With games like Spongbob or Wii Sports Resort.
3. Don't give them games rated M (That means MATURE if you haven't noticed)
You are the parent and are responsible for knowing what your kid is playing. Quit blaming developers for forcing your kid in an adult environment. You already did by letting them play these type of games
If you feel you need to cancel or not renew your live subscription because of certain games that do this feature then you are losing out on the complete xbox live experience over a feature in a game.
Just my 2 cents

Start a Party
Choose a Topic
Sometimes you want to play a game and sometimes you just want to hang. You can use parties to do both.
Let's say that one friend is playing a solo game, two others are in the middle of a multiplayer game, and a fourth is watching a DVD; with parties you can all talk to each other on the same channel.
All of the people you want to chat with need to be signed in to Xbox LIVE with a Gold membership. To talk, you'll also need to use an Xbox 360 headset, though you can just listen through your speakers if you want.
but i guess we can take features any from you any time we want
even if you been paying for live since beta live over 6 years ago now come that's got to count for something ms. i pay for all the new experience
but i do not want to pay too have those taken away
that one of the best features and promotes more game sale when friend talk about games to each other
renters etc might not believe there friend that the game is great and i wil;l rent and talk to you about it
when we play in a party so we not bother others.
Plus is this not what founded xbox live in the first place consumers voice in the beging all we had was
talking to each other and that led to word of mouth aka hay man the voice on live works great and
works the same every time i am telling you should get man get and xbox with you will love the voice clear as a bell
ps they might take there voice back cause cheaters its a game people there will allways be cheater that will not change a thing.do you relay think in this economy we want all our friends to go by more xboxs and new gamer tags just to use one xbox as a voice chat sever so friend don't have to listen to the annoying one bad comments trash talk
etc all the relay reason we play in party chat that messed up and not worth it for one game even mw2
So please patch this ms and infant ward you guys are on the for front of the gamer world and always have made great choice thats why were all here in the first place.
so please i beg you don't do this to us.
Do the right thing and fix for all gamers alike a heartfelt good day sir
from you friend - the gamer - customer
ps do not make me want to puke lol
Post by: ace_012 on November 02, 2009, 01:25:00 PM
The other reason I use it is to talk with friends who are playing other games. That sounds so greedy to me, that a game developer will only let you talk to people who are playing the same game as you, and won't even let you talk to people who are playing a different game. If this is true I seriously doubt I will even play MW2 online.
I mean the reason I even pay for xbox live is for the features, if you take away those features why should anyone pay for it?

Fantastic news. Cry it off cheaters. Here is a simple solution: party up, mute everyone on other team, play the game. you wont hear what they say, they wont hear what you say... thats private chat. Only difference is u cant cheat. If thats still not good enough, vote with your wallet and dont buy the game... lol, what a joke
your argument is invalid as long as the cheaters have an internet connection and/or a telephone. There are hundreds of different ways the cheaters will continue to cheat.

I hardly see your point. The cheating issue is widespread and will continue to be until its not something so easy to do. In fact I think your point is invalid. How many people you think have their 360 right next to their pc, or would be comfortable giving their phone number to random ass pub players... now compare that number to... well everyone who has an xbox. Really? Hundreds of ways to cheat? riiiight. Seems like a great way to solve the problem.

If one private party want to challenge another private party, that would be cool feature.
Especially in games that NEED teamwork, I would like to have feature that only gets me in games with everyone with headset.
It should be setting in all mutliplayer games, the option to match people that click "must have headset plugged in " in settings.
People that want to be in party can start private game , right?
So , maybe compromise giving 4-7 a party chat team, and have 2 teams.

Thats not a bad idea. 2 levels of choice when joining a game :
1) Just For Fun - No teamwork needed, no mic restrictions, chat to your friends in a party, or don't chat at all
2) Serious - All about teamwork, must have a headset to join, team talk only, party chat disabled
That will allow people who wish to play it both ways.

If you are in a party, then join a MP game, it should automatically send you to the game channel of the server. The main reason people do not manually do this, is because it takes for ever to navigate to join game chat. Even worse is when the dashboard stops responding. Also everyone that is in the party will have to do it as well. It just doesn't make sense to think people will do this.
This is a good choice, & will bring back the point of playing MP; to win the match. To those that hate when people are annoying on the mic, use the mute player option.

I hope this is just a rumor, I don't think even M$ would be stupid enough to do this. There are FAR better ways to discourage cheating than to completely disable private chat all-together. IE only disable private chat if the players in the chat are on separate teams on the same server or disable private chat when a player dies, or only incorporate disabled chat into hardcore servers. Who the hell do these guys have making decisions over there?
It's not a rumor. MW2 has it. I'm confirming it right now even though I'm sure someone already has.

Not all 'M' rated games are rated 'M' for the same reason.
"COD is rated M for depictions of violence, not for language. I grew up on violent movies, and cartoons, but those movies/cartoons also didn't contain depictions of sex and/or foul language (movies may have the occasional word, but usually "lesser" swear words)."
The game Modern Warfare 2 is being rated M for Violence, Gore, and Adult Language.
Also has this guy not played zombies on WAW? Jezus. Not only do I have to make sure my kids aren't in the same room when I'm playing that game, but I have to turn the volume on the TV down as well. The F bomb is dropped constantly.

I don't like this. Not at all. I have a feeling this kind of forced removal of in-game party chat is aimed directly at Cod4 players like my little group. We don't want to socialize with the outside world and we do tell each other where our enemies are when we die. But we suck. We lose over half of our games and our kill ratio is just about .62. So we are utterly harmless, right? Leave us alone, MS and IW !

I play games online with my friends and if I can't enjoy their company while I play... I won't.
A feck you in advanced MS & IW.
So you think EVERYONE on live in a racist asshole?
I agree that there are people on live who should be fucking shot, but there ARE decent people on live who just want to play and fun while chatting it up. I've met dozens of people on live playing call of duty 4 who are really nice people. They don't insult or anything, they just chat about everyday stuff and compliment others on their skills. You shouldn't EXPECT people to be mean all the time.

you sound like your kids gonna turn out real good. the game is rated m, underage kids, should not be playing it, period. games like cod, induce aggresion, and e-thug attitudes, hence, not good for a young kid to be listening too. smart parents would realize that, and either not allow the kid to play it online or at all, or at the very least, not to have a chat mic. live is free range, ain't no one getting banned for talking shit.
here's an idea, they have this thing called mute. it's real new, i think they released it like, um, forever ago.
if some kid is singing into the mic or swearing, mute his ass, then he's gone forever. cod4/cod5 both allow you to quickly mute annoying players in game, but you can alway perma-mute with live.
no right thinking parent would allow their 9year old to play cod online, with a headset, and not expect them to hear some messed up shit. if your too lazy, or stupid to monitor your young kids activities while they are online in any fashion, guess what, your a shitty parent.
IF isn't lame, chances are, they will think it through, and probably only disallow party chat on the game modes that it seriously affects, like search and destroy. especially seeing as in the regular game modes like team deathmatch, you can talk to the other players in game from the grave anyways.

giving the developer control over this feature doesn't mean bye bye private chat, it jsut allows them to disable a feature that has the ability to be taken advantage off.
mw2 isn't gonna be 100% no party chat, i'm sure it will only be disabled for modes like search & destroy.

I mean, all of we have seen many people playing teams but in opposite teams! Telling the friend where the enemy is after dying. That's plain cheating!
But let me tell you one thing MS. Cheaters will always find the way... I they wanna cheat they will. For example using external chat (on PC for example).
This measure is not effective and will piss a lot of people (like me and most of the previous hundred posters)
HERE IS A CONSTRUCTIVE IDEA:
Allow Party Chat, but as soon as you die, you can only communicate with dead people. I mean, like game chat, but limited to your party.
MS YOU HAVE TO REALIZE THAT PARTY CHAT IS A MUST FOR MANY MANY OF THE PLAYERS.
Before it I had the "only friends" global communication option... I guess I'll be back to that if they change the way this works.
That was fine, but party chat is much better.
With only friends option I don't have the option to step out to the game channel to apologize to a teammate that I have killed accidentally for example... avoiding being kill by revengers in the following games....
Please MS rethink the whole thing.
Jur.

well, you asked if you're wrong and you are. parties aren't hosted by microsoft. a party is hosted by the person who starts the party. so, microsoft uses no bandwidth for the party feature. consequently, this isn't a move for them to save money. all it is is a switch that allows developers to control when a player can be in party chat or not. so if you're upset, blame infinity ward, not microsoft.

About time M$. Totally support this move. Party chat has deminished the social community aspect of Live. All these people with friend lists 10 miles long who are complaining, I bet you met them through public chat way back when it was the only option. Otherwise you're in the rare minority.
Now when I want a quick blast and have a few laughs I dont need to rely on my real friends to be logged in. I enjoy meeting new people.
We all have experienced annoying users trying to greif us, but the exegerations expressed here...LOL, it's like Hitler himself has 30 million clones out there all playing.
Find a crap user? file a report, mute - Done. It's not the end of the world.
I hope this is mandatory for all upcoming team muliplayer games, and is patched into already released titles. Natch!
Yeah... Im sorry..
But the "Social community aspect" you speak of was torn to shreds about the time that halo 2 came out.
I mean, Trash typing was full force in PC games.... but once halo 2 came about it sent out deadly waves of stupid to all that used it, and those that were receptive enough ( i mean stupid) turned full disrespectful pieces of garbage.
From then on Live "socializing" was turned into a cesspool of homophobic, racial dribble that numbs my brain every time I hear it. To see how worthlessly selfish, disrespectful and ignorant kids are nowadays makes me hope that 2012 is the end because it wont get any better.
Socializing has mutated into 140 charter limits, minus vowels, punctuation and even changeing the places of letters differently because you want to be cool.
hell, even in Socom on Ps2, or something like KIllzone 1, twisted metal didnt have the amount of bubblescum that populates live.
What the hell is bubblescum?
I have had children threaten my life, threten to come to my house and rape my less then 2 year old daughter because they heard her cry.... How many times I have heard "I blah blah blah your mother" "Im gonna kill you" and etc... in my 5 years on live... And what for? not for yelling, not even for breathing into the mic because I turn mine off unless talking...
For getting a better score then them, for killing them twice in a row... or something equally as stupid. Its BS to make you have to take the time to mute these idiots because all 14 people on my friends list I know personally. So Its nice to be able to bitch about the day to people that arent going to call you gay 18 times in one sentence or a fa**ot because they think it means something other then a bundle of sticks for a fire. (which by the way, is exactly what it means dopies not the way you idiots use it.)
Anyway..
My point is to call Xbox live any type of social community is openly admitting the decline of..... everything "proper" i guess would be it. English has been destroyed, now lets berate everyone to make ourselves feel better.. Oh wait .. that guy made a witty comment and made people laugh at me, Im gonna get all my friends to report him for doing the same exact thing I did only better.
Post by: Derfuhrer on November 03, 2009, 02:31:00 PM
Well said
I wont be in game chat as I have no patience for immaturity, rudeness and young wankers who think they are tough as they hide behind their 360's. Im all for bringing back the 'community' but those of us who have been around know the 'community' as we knew it is gone! Surely there has to be a better way to stop or limit cheating. But as with many things its the good that are punished while the cheaters & pirates just find another way.

I will have to wait till this change actually comes out before I decide if I like it or not. A lot of my friends aren't usually on Xbox LIVE sametime I am, so it doesn't really bother me THAT much that I can't talk in party chat. I just don't like having options taken away from me. I just hope this change forces people to be more tactical instead of just talking to their friends. I have never been in a match where we used any form of team-work. I think it could add more depth to the game, which would put it in a league of it's own.

I believe that W@W still has the allowance for people to be in party chat, so it's drastically reduced from what it used to be (the derrogatory comments, that is). Last I played Gears of War it was still pretty rampant.

Ive strayed way away from Public matches just because of cheaters... thats all most games are now days run n gun etc. everyone wants to get to the top of the scoreboard and they dont give a shi* how they get there.
I play with friends in public matches like COD just to get up all the guns then we all go off to private for the rest of the duration of the life of COD.
I like online play where when ya die, thats it you die and DONT respawn, and voice is completley off. respawn is fun for a while but gets boring after a SHORT while.
anyways.. i dont really care in the end what way they go, since we dont even have a say in it.
atleast they put a somewhat stop to the modded controllers. thank god.
So.. to all you MODDED CONTROLLER FREAKS OUT THERE: "Its not our fault you SUCK ASS at gamming."
p.s. what i love is one with a modded controller.. yelling out: "I OWN YOU!!!!" but when they shut it off they couldnt shoot the damn ground!!!

You can relay the info you learned while dead and spectating, as soon as you respawn. and ofcourse, you can use a pc or telephone to send the info. It's dumb to bother to TRY to stop it, by removing a great feature, when it won't even successfull stop the "cheaters" anyways.
If they want us to be in the dark after death, remove the killcam and spectating ability. Even after that, I can still recall where i was killed last, and use that info after next respawn. Perhaps the solution is to then, remove respawns?! haha rediculous!
Team talk after death isn't a big deal. It's not cheating, because all players can do it. I agree it removes realism, but so does spectating, kill cams, and respawns.
I refuse to use the in-game chat. Before part chat, i simply unplugged my mic. Many people on xblive are not worth chatting with. Actually, many people make using the mic unbearable! Mute function is good, but not good enough. It's simply a hassle to mute tons of people all the time.
If it automuted everyone, and i could then un-mute those i wanted, THAT would be better.

It's just common curtsey. You are playing along with these people, have the decency to communicate with them like a human being. Yes they may throw it back in your face on occasion show them the light, be vigilant and be instrumental in building decent online behaviour.
Frankly youre no better by being silently rude.

I used to have the ps3 and sold it because the lack of an online comunity.
I love party chat, and that´s the only reason y pay the gold membership.
To me if they remove pàrty chat(wich most companies will do that) i´ll just don´t pay for the gold membership again.(i don´t play stupid and repetitive FPS anyway.)
I´m wondering what the !"·%$·% microsoft executives are paid for, they bark the wrong ideas and the stupid person in charge of the xbox implements them.
That´s what happens when BILL GATES is not running the company anymore.(at least at the beggining the xbox was a gaming machine design for hardcore gamers)
TBH i found it stupid that just because of one !"·$$·% game and people complaining about
OHHHH i just died because that guy is telling that guy where i am, i´m gonna call my momy so my momy complains to microsoft. MOMYYYYYYYYYYY buaaaaaa, buaaaa, buaaa
"!$"!·$ crybabys
