Is it just me? I do have larger than average ears but not THAT BIG. It seems like when i get the ear clip on it feels so loose, and when i tilt my head to the side, it just falls off!!

The ear clip seems to too think b/c it can't settle b/w the top of my ear and my head

any advice? anyone with similiar problems? i haven't tried the actual voice quality but the design already seems flawed IMO

EDIT: "seems too thick"

Push the over ear thing to fit your ear. Sort of mold it into shape.

! thanks haha i feel dumb now, i molded it to where it fits perfectly, thanks!

as to the guy that needs to connect it, i haven't tried yet but i think you need to connect it to the USB and maybe to go a setting on your PS3, not sure tho

wow.. no one reads manuals anymore huh?

take the usb cable, plug it directly into the headset (on the back end, directly behind the earpiece)
plug usb into ps3. pairing is automatic.. it will come up as "Wireless Headset"
unplug the headset. turn it on, and it should be up and running

did anyone elses SOCOM install take forever? im using the game data install and its been sitting there saying "installing do not turn off system" with no progress bar for 5 minutes...

(by end of post it started installing) still took forever....

How do you connect it to the PS3?Ultrabeatdown55

okay the way i did it was turn on the headset (hold power until green light comes on) then go to "accessory settings" on your ps3 and go to "audio devices" and go to connect device or something similiar it should be easy to find, and you should see "wireless headset" under devices so press the down button to highlight it and press triangle and choose connect and it should do it no problem. you know its connected when the headset power light flashes green quickly 2 times about every 3 seconds

hope this helped

I hate the way it feels. Warhawks was 10x more comfortable. The thing that goes around your ear should not just pop off, it should swivel and bend much better. Its too long as well.

to sync it with the ps3, u need to connect the usb to the headset it self not the charger kit u place the headset on, but the ear piece itself, and after few seconds ull see a green light that lights up and ur ready to go. and like duckman said, mold it in lol my friend had the same problem untill i told him to mold it in till it fits and feels more comfortable

dont expect to be able to just return the game without the headset, the game case doesnt have a UPC. The most u could probably do is trade it in to Gamestop, if your lucky ull get more the 10 dollars

The beta is nothing like the real game. I hated the beta too, but I'm loving the real deal (when I actually get in a game, that is, lol) :P
