Please BAN kinnect chat from games!

Enough is enough. Please... ban these from public chats in game.

While i have no issues with people using Kinnect chat in private partys. I sure as hell don't want to hear these horrible mics used in PUBLIC chats in games.

Be it Grand Theft Auto online or Elder Scrolls online. The shriek and squaking of kinnect mics all being used at once drowns out EVERYTHING. It picks up everything and downs out everything else. To the point where i have to mute my public chat. Because
the sound the kinnect chat gives is HORRIBLE!

People have mics.. but don't use it.. because they just like to yell at their TVs to chat. And us players with actual mics or headsets suffer for it.

Please... do us a favor. BAN kinnect from public chats in game. Save us.... please

:)

Ripped off

I suggest you try to go through the kinnect setup on more time. Also are you using the chat headset when you giving the "xbox record that" command? If your not then that is your issue. Playing loud games with noise from your speakers will not work well
if the kinnect is trying to decipher and listen.

Mine works every time I speak through the microphone.

Again I suggest: Redo the kinnect configuration in settings, kinnect.

Good Luck.

Kinect would still be recognized as a "headset" because it has a microphone built in. Nearly impossible to tell if Kinect is used by Xbox. I don't like using it either, but it's all I have now. Best you can do is mute them if it bothers you.

Mute offending users. Continue playing game.

This is why I don't even wear a headset unless I'm in a party with friends

It works fine with a headset its only when your in game chat rather than a party chat whoever is using the Kinnect cannot be heard by the others on cross platform but mic and headset no work problems. My friend has the Kinnect but no headset there in lies
the problems.
