Search & Rescue-you can't use Kinect to play this game mode?

I find this issue very odd because of issue I have with my microphone and have to use my Kinect to communicate with everyone and Search & Rescue is my favorite game mode.

The issue is that you cannot play while in party chat which is understandable however this game mode will not let you play if you have to use your Kinect to communicate. I hate to do it but my microphone is *** up and having lots of issues.

Another issue is that if you are playing using your microphone and you need to plug in your controller to charge you'll be kicked because the controller takes a few seconds to initialize and cuts off the headset which will also kick you from the game. The
same thing will happen if you happen to unplug you microphone while in game.

They could/should probably issue a buffer time period of about 10 seconds before you get kicked so that you have time to plug in your controller and it gets initialized or something.

Xbox one graphics/power.

Because if I like Xbox exclusives better & can get all the multiplats, it's not a better gaming machine. It's not our duty to defend it. We are in an Xbox One forum. Chances are, we like the Xbox One. What we're annoyed with is having to go on a search &
rescue mission to find threads actually discussing games or features we like, because they get buried by a million "Why can't we get rid of Kinect?" threads. Does the fact you can tweet, use facebook, play games, check e-mail, web browse, ect lessen your ability
to make calls on your smartphone? No. Many people will use the extra features. if you don't want to, don't. You don't have to like 100% of anything. Quit acting like there won't be great games just because you don't like Kinect or an NFL partnership.

 

S&D coming 15th Nov plus fixes

I only play hardcore modes so search and rescue is a joke because since there is no mini map, almost no one will rescue a teammate unless they see a tag. On core mode, rescues were obviously a lot more common. Can't wait for regular search to come back.

 

im having the same issue and thought it was odd I couldn't use my Kinect as a mic in game as the mic I got with the console wont pick up voice I can hear through it but no one can hear me ive emailed activision and infinity ward to see if there will be a
patch so people can use there Kinect in game and to stop getting kicked out if u do plug in or unplug ur mic but still waiting on a reply

 

You'll also get kicked if during the game you need/have to plug in and charge your controller, it will kick you also.
