I play Bad Company online, and I find that no one is using the game chat. I'm guessing they are most likely in party chats.

Which type of chat do you use when you game online and why?

i use party chat most of the time....but when i play gears 2, i go into to game channel cuz i hate party chatters who tell where everyone is and stuff...wish they could fix that crappy camera..just like gears 1, where ur teammates can only view you when they are dead.

Party chat when I'm playing with a group of friends and when I die I can warn my teammates. Although I barely use it I'm normally not in party chat just in silent rooms saying how useless everyone is without headsets.

Yup. I get a lot more teamwork out of my friends than I do randoms.

What games do you play? I tend to be hesitant with random people, no offense to anyone, I just like playing games with people 18+

After Playing TF2 for a long time I found out that randoms should never ever be depended on no matter what.

I think Left 4 Dead pushed me over the edge...Why do you buy a cooperative survival game and not cooperate? People don't even have headsets!

I know I played about twenty games in the last few days and aybe five people had headsets tops. I added three of them so luckily I am now covered for friends in L4D. Games like this just feel boring without a headset and it's hard to warn each other about stuff..

yeah my best friend owns L4D and he hates me because I still haven't purchased L4D, he HATES playing online with noskilled players or w/o mics, I might get L4D-2 to calm him down, because it's a fun game

Do you play Bad Company? And as someone else said... I am picky with the type of people I play with. I hate it when someone in my group just keeps bragging about scores and stuff. If you play Bad Company let me know.

I use party chat all the time i'm online, and if there is no one online, i would sooner not talk than go into the game chat. Way too many immature people online nowadays, or kids with high voices that sing..

when I'm In a party, we usually go into game chat and "chat" with all the amazing people of LIVE. When I'm not in a party, I hardly ever use my mic. It's just not as fun.
