Ok folks... Use your mics....

Last night was alot of fun but one thing was missing.. Communication...

Call out snipers.. call out whos Martyring!... helps others keep away... Call out if you need help and are solo on an objective...

Just because there is no commander position like in other games ..dont mean someone cant step up and lead!!!

Gather some guys aroud you and make squads..... Friggin own an objective when 4 guys show up at the same time!...

All of this... its called teamwork.... something we need to work on more.

Always. Good call, Warchild - if the server's quiet, don't be discouraged, just talk it up and get people involved. You can do things like ask people "Hey so-and-so, do you see anyone over there?" If people see that you're making an effort to communicate, they'll more than likely follow suit.

Right on.
If there's one thing I've learned... it can be akward being the only one using the mic, but it doesn't always mean someone's not listening.
Encourage people to buy mics, and encourage them to plug in and USE their mics... if they have them and aren't, start naming names.

I try to as much as I can....however my mic is extremely quiet on cod4 for some reason. I have to yell very loudly to sound normal....which at 12 midnight...isn't very polite.

Many pub players don't have mics or don't have the in-game voice enabled. The majority of the pub servers out there have already set a stupid precedent by disabling the in-game voice and running teamspeak or ventrilo for their regs.

We're of course not the majority, and won't be doing that as it alienates players that aren't aware of the separate VOIP server.

Be relentless. Just keep using your mic, and call people out by name.

I need to use my mic more and I like the squads idea.

I'm trying to use my mike more. Right now I have to keep myself from trying to q-spot people since it does nothing except make me lean left and fire my weapon.
