Finally I can quickly mute all the back ground noise that I have suffered through since the inception of this game. I know I know i can go in and mute people individually but now I can do it quickly.
Nobody wants to talk about tactics or strategy, they only want to talk about what they had for dinner; why is baby sitting in the corner without a diaper or two man team tactics that never involve the whole team. If you have 6 speaker surround sound system it can easily sound like your at either Pets Smart or a Day Care.
Thanks 343! A great game just got better. Master Chief for Life!
It’s nice but half the time it doesn’t work for me. Same as in game mute, sometimes it just stops working and I have to close the game completely out to get it to start working again.
It really sucks that the only people with mics are so annoying that this is a feature. I only talk strategy on my mic and I even mute my mic to cough because I don’t want to be annoying. Communication is a golden thing for Halo, and its getting ruined.
the kinect is the single worse gaming invention of all time
the amount of people that actually use it to work out and or play games is so miniscule that they had to bundle it to get it to sell
the voice controls and motions are barely used outside of “Xbox on/off” and “xbox record that”
however people forget we can hear EVERYONE in their house talk about
-their day at school
-how ugly alicia’s dress was
-how their child is a -Yoink- and wont shut up
-inconspicuous background conversations because when family is over its ok to play halo…?
dont get me started on the pot heads and vape people

THIS. Why is this a thing? I’ve heard -Yoinking!- parties going on in the background while some kid on my team is chanting that he’s in a warthog. Who the hell is playing Halo with a -Yoink!- Quinceañera going on in the same room they are in?!
Everyone uses the stupid Kinect as a source instead of a headset. 20$ maybe for a headset.
I’ve heard a guy kick what sounds like his crying girlfriend out of the house, so yeah, I’ll use the mute button when I like.
But if you’re down to talk tactics, then I definitely wouldn’t mute.
I believe the default setting on my Kinect was to use for chat, I had to turn it off.

Lol, so true. The Kinect is just such a sad fail on Microsoft’s part.
