Basic rules for using voice chat

        

We decided to describe basic rules which will help you communicate in voice chat more effectively and comfortably in large and small teams.

1. Assign roles in the team

In the beginning it’s important to understand your role in the team, who you should listen first and who you may ignore. Understanding of your role in the team and a mission in a game will cut most of unnecessary conversations and allow your team to concentrate on the game and avoid chaos. It is very important to assigning a leader and keep to agreed hierarchy.

2. Speak and answer shortly

Brevity is the soul of wit, especially in action-games it may cost you a victory. Dozens of players need to coordinate their actions quickly and accurately, they must be able to get a full picture and build a plan of further actions from the voice communications. So be brief, speak only about important things and this will bring positive results and it will decrease a level of irritation in the team.

3. Keep calm

Relax, it's just a game, especially in cases where they are not needed. Nobody talks about the complete absence of emotion, cause we are playing to get them, but try to respond with restraint. Such behavior will give you respect from other players.

4. Maintain order and listen to the leader

Chaos in the team is a deadlock. You will have no fun, neither winning nor any other positive results. Follow the rules of your team, listen to your leader and then you will get a totally different feel of the game. You must be tough enough if you want maintain an order in your team - ban and mute works fairly effectively.

5. Respect others

In the beginning take care of your microphone, everyone should hear your voice clearly, neither too quiet nor too loud. Turn off the music and make sure that you do not create any extra noise that may disturb or annoy others.

We hope these simple rules will help your team to make communication in better and move forward team results.
