I need a headset/mic recommendation please and a question

Post » Fri Dec 31, 2010 7:06 am

I'm looking to order a mic/headset today and I was wondering if anyone could recommend a decent quality wireless one. Is there any way to use a bluetooth device? I want to avoid having to press a button in game in order to communicate with my team mates if at all possible.

Also, I know how to pull my H.U.D. down to tag enemies but I don't know how to tag. What am I missing?

Thank you

Go for the Logitech G930 or Logitech G35. I use the G35. Best headset/mic combo I've ever used. Pristine audio fidelity and sick bass.

I'm pretty sure u point ur reticule over an enemy and press "F" by default. That should tag the enemy. At least in single player.

I appreciate the reply. Can you use the audio without pressing a key?

Also, can anyone recommend just a good mic? I need to get both for different situations.

Thanks

The game has to support the options for mic control. There are 2 kinds:

Push-to-talk (which is what you are saying you don't want)
Open mic with sensitivity (which is what you want and what xbox 360 and PS3 use)

ANY mic/headset can do this. It is not a feature of the headset but of the game or program.

Crysis 2 does have Open mic and can be configured in the options menu.

I used the Wireless Logitech G930. One of the best wireless headsets you can get. It is on sale on amazon right now for 26% less than Logitech MSRP:
