...Dude, stop trolling.  Seriously, you're making yourself look like a moron.

yeah ok,  just keep making commentary on a game that isnt out, that you havent played, that you know everything about.  and in  fact you know so much about this game that isnt out and you havent played, that you actually know more than the devs.  and i look like a moron?  get a clue.
ill keep an eye out for you online and administer your punishment there.  better make sure you have enough friends around to back you up.   your gonna need it.

dont let the smell get to ya.....

Okay, take a deep breath, first off & chill out, deadsmell.

This thread is about the communications set up for F:FoW, and the question specifically relating to it is if we will or will not be able communicate with people outside of a squad set up.  If you don't care or don't want the ability to talk with more than just three other people in a game where you can potentially have a team of 16 people - more power to you; you're entitled to your opinion...  However, for those of us who do care and want that ability, we're entitled to our opinion.  We're voicing our opinions about it here.

You came along & made a trolling post, insult the OP, insult me for my achievement score (talk about friggin' lame), and talk about 'respect' while showing a complete lack of it... so yeah, that makes you look like a moron.  The fact that you further show your IQ by going completely off-topic & apparently just want to argue with me shows you're also an idiot.

While I'm sure Keen is heartbroken over your taking him off your f/l, I think he's entitled to voice his questions and concerns about the game.  If you don't like the topic of the thread - skip it.

That said, you be sure & have a nice day now.

ahh is someone upset.  do you feel like you got the last word now dummy.  you jumped all over me for what i said lame brain. you insulted me first. whats the matter is your pay attention pills wearing off?   your the one who seems to want to argue. 
let me ask you something smart guy. 
what are you willing to sacrifice for across the board chat features huh?  framerate?  network stability?   would you rather have your noob chat, than a solid playable game?  well im sure you would but i sure as heII wouldnt. 
read the whole post before you start throwing out cliche pre fabricated insults that have no relevance. 
and yes i agree your gamer score is lame.  60 points on gears?  give up so quick?  typical of a clancy nancy.

In the immortal words of Rodney King "can't we all just get along?!"  ;-)

I know that we can't, but there's no reason to engage in personal attacks.  Xbox Live was set up to allow people to game online together.  Co-op games have taken off lately because people like gaming with each other.  It sounds like the question here is whether people will be able to game with each other while also talking to each other about tactics, where the enemy is or even the weather in Zimbabwe.

Let's try and keep this topic focused and stop the personal attacks.  Thanks.

Haha, love it. Making fun of somebody because of their gamerscore, that's fantastic. Your a real mature guy, tis' a shame you don't use your mic more often, I'm sure people would love to hear your sqeaky voice making fun of them and calling them "noobs". Let me say this in a way you'll understand, "ur l33t, u pwn soo muuch ***, punkuachion is overrated lolz"

Good day.

I don't get upset at people who try picking fights over the internet.  Actually, you've been a great source for humor in my day - thanks for that!

pay attention pills... classic! you got me there.  how do I come back with such a clever retort?    As for anything in the game being "sacrificed" just so a player can talk to more than your own squad - I can think of quite a few games that have chat functions that allow your whole team to talk, and there's no issues...  Now if you want to get friggin' picky about it, if a game can't let everyone on a team communicate, that alone is a red flag.  My first comment on this represents my opinion, so I'll leave it at that.  Haha - 'noob chat' I like that one.

Why the heck would you care about my gamerscore anyway?  I didn't like GoW, so what?  So, next are you gonna prove your manhood by challenging me to a game to show how cool you are?

Let me put it to you in a way you'll understand, dude:  You're a joke with big words on a forum.  Nobody takes you seriously, your insults are hilarious though (gotta give you that), and honestly, anyone who puts so much effort into trolling to actually feel they have to check up on someone's played games?  Add petty to the list.

You're done?  Cya!   Hope you come back, so I can get more kicks out of your witty comebacks!

Hahaha, my gamerscore is higher than yours. I geuss that makes you lame huh?

your the second guy ive seen on here use the word "retort". i guess thats ok..i mean its good to be in touch with your feminine side...right?...im just glad that enough of you have been distracted from the topic of throwing your worthless two cents into how a game that youve never played should be played.  we got enough crap from the demo on how this should be this and that should be that.  so we got these great ideas coming from a bunch of people who know diddly squat about game developement, and think that cod4 and halo3 should get married and have kids.  great.  as far as you claiming that everybody here thinks im a joke..well i dont care, i mean why would i care about what a guy that dresses up in womens clothing thinks.  and besides  whats wrong with creating a little rivalry huh.  makes it that much more satisfying when i own you over and over until you quit the game and start a forum to cry about how they didnt make the game right.
im glad that you enjoy my humor, perhaps you would be so kind as to loosen your tightly wound bu**hole long enough to say something remotely funny yourself.  it would be appreciated.

this is how  you guys sound  "whaa whaa i wanna everyone to hear me!! whaa whaa i want EVERYONE to hear me!!"

"kaos its really bugging  me really really bad, and i cant sleep whaaa whaa , i dont wanna talk to the people in my squad whaa whaa anyone but the people in squad!! please kaos!! please dont make me talk to the people in my squad!!"

does that kind of put it into perspective for you.  i hope so, cuz thats what im looking at.

seriussly if u dont like frontlines get the shi out

Seriously, I'm looking forward to Frontlines.  I've been following the game since I first heard about it, and I've even been posting about it on other forums to get friends interested in it.

nobody playing the pc beta is complaining.   so why are you guys crying and freaking out, wait for the game to come out.  if theres a tac map there really no need to communicate that much dude.  just look at the map.  plus you can always split your four man squad into two and just talk that way.    so quit crying.   keen you sent me a friend request, but i removed you because you are spamming the forums with lame threads like these.   maybe you should just wait for battlefield and pass on this game.  the devs are alot smarter than you guys when it comes to this stuff. have some respect and let them do their jobs the way they think is right. 
im not buying this game to listen to people talk!!!

u have 2 b kidding me ur so wrong every1 should be using their mic if the team is going to be successful maybe the pc and xbox r different theres alot of communication in every online game on xbox and this one is going to require the most out of any game if theres a vote out option id b voting anyone whos not using the mic cuz there only hurting the team

peopel on the Frontlines forum have been talking about this aswell.  I dont get it.  There should be a better system.  What about the snipe whos off by himself picking off targets and hes not in a squad.  What if he see some heavy coming in that the ground team can see.  Hows he supposed to tell you.

It would be nice if everyone had the dpad communication that is in Shadowrun...you can show teammates where enemies are, call for back-up and order a move-to icon...all of which place a flashing icon on the location of importance. 

It sounds like Frontlines will allow squad leaders to do something similar, but it only communicates that to your 3 other squadmates.

Ok the children who were fighting need to calm down.  Thornes70, if you run across a guy like this, just report him and ignore it.  You kept posting and arguing, which just made him happier.  You just need to ignore him.

Also, deadsmell you are an idiot and gamerscore means nothing.  You are lucky I didn't report you and I don't know why you were insulting him for having 60 points on GoW when you have privacy settings enabled.

Anyways let's just all get along.

LOL DC, I'm just having fun with this bonehead.   His "insults" are friggin' hilarious, too bad he can't come up with anything better than the obvious 13-year old put-down.  I just can't believe he hasn't challenged me to a game - the ultimate dumb comeback...

Anyway, it's gotten boring & I'm not responding to him, so he'll have to go trolling elsewhere, I suppose...

I think that while the squad chat is a good idea for immersion factors and making you actaully act like you are in the military, I would rather be able to talk to my whole team wheather it be shooting the isht because we are in fact playing a game and that is how I catch up with some of my friends I dont always see, or even to be able to tell someone that the enemy is right behind them I think it would just be more bennificial to have team chat and not over complicate things.

Its ok thornes I know your gs isnt too high but in the words of a kid like deadsmell "I still think u r teh pwn"...

hey milkman, i never said any internet nerd jibberish like that so pull your head out of your a**.  way to stick up for your man though.  are you his special milkman?   you sure do like his special milk dont you.  you guys are the kind of people who do this when a game first comes out.  thats why your  so worried about this.  be honest, is this you?:

  " whaa whaa i cant find anything!! whaaa where is everything!!! someone help me whaa!!


im so glad im not going to have listen to your whiny nasaly b.s.    im just as excited for this game as the rest of you. the only difference is i am willing to play it before i start complaining and whining about features that are or are not in the game.  which is what ive been saying since my original post on page one, which is how do you know anything until youve played and seen how the game unfolds?  you dont, but go ahead and sit around biting your finger nails and acting like intellectuals and video game gurus.
to me this just shows an overall lack of experience with video games in general.

 anyway i think that all this worry and anxiety you guys have over this issue is just perpetuating any negative impressions that people may have had from the demo.  so make a decision.  either get the game or dont.  but in the meantime why arent we talking about all the things that we think are going to be cool rather than focus on what might not be cool.  i mean you want alot of people to buy the game right!!? you dont want to see a bunch of empty beautiful brand new 32 player servers with noone on them do you?

thats why these lame threads need to stop.

i was thinking the same thing, very good suggestion.  in the little developer diary video though they talk about how your squad mates say things like " sniper on the roof" and stuff like that to let you know what they see.  and in the demo they actually do a really good job if you pay attention.  so im wondering if that works in the online portion of the game too.

dont let the smell get to ya.....

Send me a friend request and name a game that I own. By your count I am better than you just because I have twice the GS.

All I am saying is that I actaully like to talk to a friend or multiple friends while playing XBL. If they do only squad chat I wouldnt be able to talk to everyone which really wouldnt bother me but I would still like to be able to also have a general conversation with everyone. If they do the Shadowrun Icon thing that is all the more reason just to allow freechat because all the relevent info is being passed along through the game interface.

Also on another note I just think that people are talking about this just because they are so excited about the game and cant think of anything else to converse about so they inquire about how the voice chat works. No one here has said that they will for sure not pick up this game if they do not get their voice chat just right they are just stating their opinions because to be honest some games get it right and some dont. I for one am still going to give this game a chance because I like these types of games and I enjoyed the demo. You just need to calm down do something else for a little bit and give more than two people a chance to post before you open another can of Troll Flame tm. Everyone here wants to play this game and wouldnt post if they didnt.

I think it would add an interesting level of difficulty if only squad leaders could communicate, relying on the leader to take info from his/her squad and pass it to the rest. Isn't this how it works in the real world? Although, multiplayer history has shown that it's not often that everyone on a team cooperates or acts maturely. /shrug.

Yes I saw a video of that being used in multiplayer...but like I said in my post only the squad leader has this ablility...and I assume that only his/her squad would see those icons.

what could be better?

Chat function is always an important tool in squad based games. I'll be interested to see how well this works out. Could be better, could be terrible.

As far as insults based on GS, that's the most humorous thing I've seen in a while.

dude dont challenge someone to challenge you.   i dont know what the big confusion is.  i can tell alot by a persons gamer score.  i can tell if they boost (cheat),if they give up when it gets tough, their taste in games, all sorts of stuff.  gotta know your enemy.
so keep hating the voice of reason.  keep speculating and worrying and crying.  whatever keeps you nerds out of the sun.  keep commenting on how i insulted his gamerscore.  60 points on gears way to go man, one of the best games on the 360  and you gave it your best... way to go.  i just hope i get to play against you losers when the game comes out.  and while your busy running your mouth like a woman, i will be thinking how glad i am that i dont have to hear it.  i think its a GREAT idea to have the in game chat designated to squads.  FOR THE LAST TIME YOU CAN CHECK YOUR TACTICAL MAP AND SEE THE ENTIRE BATTLFIELD WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON!! 
you will see how much more useful it is than a bunch of noobs feeding each other misinformation.  you see the devs know you noobs better than that. yeah you guys think your all organized and tactical, but wait till the game comes out.  youll see.  i mean you already have such little faith that you will be able to hold your own with one squad.  how many do you need?  and the other thing you guys refuse to acknowledge, is there are ALOT of us who dont want to have to hear you nerds.  plain and simple, and i think the devs are sick of hearing a bunch of screaming noobs too, so they arent going to let it ruin the game for everyone on their game.  LIVE WITH IT.

milkman you can just milk me off when the game comes out ok.
