Subject: Halo 2 voice chat

Okay as everyone knows talking to your teamates and listening to your enemies is of vital importnace in Halo, however my mother won't let me because she is afraid of racial and sexist comments. Now there are many glithces where I can hear people talking and I have heard about 40 minutes worth of convo from these glitches.

I hear a bit of swearing but my mother doesn't care.

My playing ability has suffered from lack of communication, I win most one on one fights, but when it comes down to my team versus the other I am at a hude disadvantage.

Please help me either justify my mother's position or change her opinion.


P.S. I am a teenager, not that annoying 10 year old kid that cusses everyone out.

Thank you.

RIP Halo 2.

Tell her she's being over-protective and taking away a key element of the game and service you paid for. You hear far worse every day at school.

Thank you, I will tell her that at the appropriate time.

When you are in a game with someone, hit start. then hit the "Y" button. Go to Recent Players, select the player you want to mute, then go to mute voice. Also, if you don't want to hear anything at all, switch your voice settings to headset only, and don't use a headset. To do this, hit start in a game, go to settings, and choose voice output, then XBOX Communicator only.

That's pretty good. I would add that you're bound to be exposed to slurs and derogative comments without a headset. Just promise to be level-headed and to behave. The last thing you want her thinking is that you'll resort to that negative behavior. Depending on your age, she's being a good mom regardless.

Thank you, I understand her point better now.

  • 08.02.2007 8:33 PM PDT

You could try telling her that teh majority of people playing anymore arn't the ones letting off swears every 5 secI don't swear at people unless they make me mad or just keep running their mouth

  • 08.02.2007 8:50 PM PDT

Thanks, I will also tell her that.
