What's happening on Live?

[MeRkAgE]

Where has all the in-game chat online gone? I know there's the party system, but still. I was playing COD WaW earlier, and it was silent except me and my mate, and we were playing for ages, hardly anyone was speaking. Kinda ruins playing online when no-one speaks.
What do you think?

Yeah, Call of Duty lobbies are always silent now because of partys. sux.

I've noticed this on CoD WaW since launch. A lot less people are talking than on Cod 4. Makes it more boring imo. Less people to make fun of with my friends . But i dont talk if im not playing with my friends so it doesent bother me that much.

Ive onyl met about 3 or 4 people out of 40/60 people on Fifa who speak :{

i had a lovely chat with an american dude on FIFA 08. apart from that, COD4 lobbies i find are full of loud mouthed americans who insist on "pawning" others and saying "dude thats gnarly"

I turn all that off anyway, don't see how not having voice chat in the games makes it less fun personally but oh well. o.O

thats cause you have nobody to talk to

Yeah, it's silent because of partys. I think XBOXlive took notice of the fighting going on between different countries, the British and the Americans for example? I like it anyway, means you can help your guy out on Search and Destroy w/e. I think it's better than having some immature baby crying down the mic atleast, view it from that perspective.

Umm on cod4 only like 2 people in a game speak now

It's because with the party system people prefer to speak to their mates while they do various stuff, it's better than staying in a game chat and getting abuse hurled at you by different countries for no reason
