How to test a headset in the RGH environment

[takuma98 0]

I never used a headset in my console, and I already bought it RGH'ed. Is there any app or game I can test the headset?

I just made a quick test in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. While in the game, I can see my nick with 'speaker icon', while I'm talking I can see the icon indicating that I'm talking (showing waveforms), but I hear nothing. The icon also shows that my voice is coming out in full volume. I can hear the voices of the other people, but that is the correct way to work?I can't listen my own voice?

I made some tests in my PC and the overall volume from headset's microphone seens ok. But I didn't know if people are hearing me in game , COD BO2, for instance.

Thanks in advance for any help.

You don't hear yourself no... it's just plain stupid hearing your own echo it's confusing...

If you want to know that ppl hear you, just ask them something, if you get a response, they hear you

hey Swizzy, thanks for your fast reply

hmm I don't hear this echo from my voice you mentioned, but as I said the speaker icon was showing I was talking in a good volume.

I will follow your sugestion, although the last time I played COD BO2 I asked the host owner  "pleeease stop putting BOTs on the match" and he didn't stop. But that was maybe his decision, not a headset problem.

Well the most hosts dont care about that

If you should ever play COD Ghosts or Red Dead Redemption you need to activate the fakelive function in dashlaunch, and if you should play Black Ops 1 with a newer TU, you need to deactivate it, else it is freezing (you can still use the mic).
