I understand if you got a fire team of 12 guys party chat is great. But I’m so tired of playing halo and guys are in party chat and you can’t communicate with them. Just use game chat. Everyone can hear y’all and talk with you guys. And don’t use the “oh people’s Kinect is annoying” excuse. Because there’s mute buttons. Anyways. Halo 5 is great, but it’s truly sad the halo community doesn’t understand this is a team oriented game. And not communicating is pointless and so anti social. It ruins the gaming experience.
Breakout should be in-game chat only. But it’s just hard to force people go into in-game chat for team arena or slayer etc at the same time very difficult if you try to lone wolf it.

Trying to force people into a chat room with 11 other people is never going to end well. The bottom line is more often than not, someone is on the other end of the headset being a complete turd and it is much easier to go into the match with your party and not even have to deal with that turd in the first place. I solo queue a lot and I’ll have my headset on and mic muted just in case someone out there is worth listening to and 9 times out of 10 the first thing I hear is “what up N***a!. You suck. go hang yourself.” or something to that effect and I instantly take my headset off my head. I recently got lucky and had a complete team in slayer who all had their mic and just started making callouts and we dominated the opposing team so we ended up sticking together because that was a unicorn moment.

So one guy and you can’t mute him? So based off your experiences with few people who act ignorant and you now eliminate yourself from communicating with teammates? Then you make yourself as useless as the turds who act such ways. I can’t communicate with any of y’all. Lol there’s mute buttons for a reason. And there’s headsets for a reason. Use them both. That’s the bottom line. I mute jerks also. But there’s no way and no excuse in warzone especially for 11 guys not to have mics on or be in game chat. Mute the idiots.
No excuses. Except for the one where I just said that the majority of the people on mics are turds and after a while it feels like it’s less exhausting to just not be on the mic. Pressing mute 6 times is not easier than removing my headset.
I used to believe party chat was evil, but now with game types that support teams of twelve people… you have to have it.
I’d honestly love to use game chat more often, but the most vocal people in Halo are all too frequently simply cussing up a storm, raging against the very game they’re playing, or playing loud music with barking dogs in the background. Strategically, I get almost as much feedback from the game itself as I would from 12 players giving overlapping advice all at once.
I can’t hit mute all fast enough at the beginning of a match. I wish it was a permanent setting. For those 10 seconds I’m reminded that I’m playing with obnoxious children.
My personal experience is when I single queue in warzone that others are in party chat or dont have a mic. I make it a point to say “what’s up guys, anyone with mics?” at the beginning. usually i get two or three good players and 1 annoying kid. find, mute. done.
Read a little bit of this, not all of the comments so sorry if this has already been said, … When party chat is an XBOX ONE feature, the game can’t (maybe not can’t but would be hard pressed to… ) take that feature away for specific aspects of their game. If they were to take that option away from people there would be a much much MUCH bigger uproar from the community than there is from people who feel such as the supporters of this thread. Not saying that you aren’t entitled to your opinion and voicing it, but I don’t see it happening.
