Enemy Voice Chat DISABLED in Halo 3 Ranked Matches
Catalyst | 2:46 AM on 09.24.2007 9 comments


Uh oh. Looks like anti-Halo fanboy response #2--"I don't want to get called names by 12 year olds"--just flew out the window. A solid decision by the Bungie team.

"In addition, enemy player voice is disabled in game in Ranked Playlists. This is because these playlists are about the contest, and not about being Chatty Mc Chatterson. Some people love the art of trash talking above all else—there is a home for you, but it isn’t a Ranked Playlist. The scoreboard does all of the trash talking here."

At Bungie.net.

Bad ass. Now we only have to mute the douchebags who fail to realize it's a videogame and feel the need to call everyone "FUCKING STUPID COCKSUCKING MORONS!" for dying/failing an objective.

This is just part of Microsoft's plan to sell more controller keyboards, they will become a MUST HAVE for 12 year olds.

Good decision, i often played halo 2 without headset.
