I do, but I rarely talk (Bought the headset like a week ago and I think I've said 4-6 short sentences top).

I'm very insecure when in comes to talking, mostly because I've never had someone to talk to in english, so the result is a heavy accent with an occasional stutter, making it hard to understand sometimes. (My primary language isn't english if you didn't catch that, I live in South America).

So I just put my headset on mute and listen others talking.

 

Same here, I live in Asia and English is not my mother language (I speak Cantonese), I use it couple time in GTAO. Although I could understand 85% of what's people talking, I could also speak with the other too however I can't express myself sometime because I don't know the vocabulary of that thing i wanna say.

I always wear mine, but its usually on mute. I do this for reasons outlined in this story:

 

I was once doing my own thing, on foot, when a car full of players started coming my way. I heard "Lets kill that one" over the headset. I pulled out my Combat MG and killed all 4 as they rode up to me. The rest of the time I listened to these 4 tards actually discussing tactics and trying to coordinate to kill me. Little did they know I heard everything they were saying.I heard one say "I'm calling my tank" so I followed him, killed him and took it. I continued to blast all 4 players until they quit. Good times. Always keep a headset on. Needless to say I was not the one who left that encounter mad.

I have one, so I checked "Yes".

 

It's broken and I can't speak with it so I checked "N/A".

I'd use one if I was alone in the house, otherwise others would think I am insane.

I am also fairly sure I would get banned from chat within a day or two for chastising half the population.

Yes, and I turn my T.V. down to listen through the headset so I use it every time I'm on GTA or BLOPS2.

Only really use it when playing with crew members, or if some loudmouth in free roam gets too big for britches.

Only use the headset with friends, I used to use it online when it was first released. But after all the background noise/squeakers/singers/talking trash I quit lol

1. Yes

2. Always

 

I have them set for crew and friends in free mode, but mainly have them on always for all the little sounds you miss with speakers.

I'll be honest, I couldn't think of anything worse than having gtao players in my ear the whole time. It's bad enough through my tele, if I had whiney french children with hip hop music too loud and speaking with the mic almost in their mouth, coming through my ear piece, I would probably snap the thing. Honestly, I played it about a week ago in a race, and there was a kid griefing on "arms race" and he sounded exactly the same as Jerry's cousin Nibbles from Tom & Jerry

Yes. Every second. I talk a lot of trash.

I can vouch for this, he never shuts up.

 

;-P

 

As for me, I usually have my Mic available, but only really use it to talk to friends and crew members. Sometimes I might switch to all chat to hear what's going on in an open lobby, but I don't get involved in the bitching.

 

Fortunately, I have an Astro mixamp, which allows me to quickly adjust the volume of in game chat, from 100% volume all the way down to nothing, all whilst leaving the rest of the game sound in place.

I am a loud killer. Warner is a silent killer. Like feline aids.

All it does it waste my bandwidth and hurt my ears. Unless it's some hot chick from a exotic country. Then I'm fine but doesn't happen v very often.

Yeah I constantly use it to argue with idiot Yanks about everything ... about Jesus finding people called Matthew and John in the Middle-East. About the fact that this game is a product of my country and not all theirs - http://www.rockstargames.com/careers/openings/rockstar-north, like the times they invented God, Democracy, the English launguage oh and course the best sense of Humour and a great understanding for Sarcasm. Maybe I'm the stupid one for trying to educate these Bangers.

The bible is a translation bro. La rana René.

I was being sarcastic so the yanks have to re-read it, not to confuse my fellow Commonwealthers. It's also almost entirely made-up and is pre-dated by other modern religions which are also a load of bollocks... if you ask me.

Yes, talk to friends and crew, or randoms if they aren't too obnoxious LOL

This for me.

Yeah, I have one and I use it only with friends. Oh, and I say some short sentences when I play missions with randoms (specific cases, like people blowing up the last couple of cars with professionals in Rooftop Rumble -which makes us fail the mission- or people attacking the Cargobob in Coveted, things like that).
