Unless you're one of the guys that dies alot. Then, you might be doing the team a favor by sitting out.
Yeah, but the problem is that it completely takes you out of the game. You might be putting them on the radar for your team, but you're also basically putting yourself in a penalty box and giving the other team a power play. Its really useful in s&d, but I think you're overall doing your team a disservice by taking a player off the field in any other game type.

For objective based games I will mostly agree.
For TDM, it's not always a bad thing to be down 5 players to 6.
I know I've mentioned this before but it annoys me so much when people play objective game types like domination and they don't help out. They are just trying to get their kills. I've been playing with a few friends and having people interested in actually winning really helps.

Does anyone know if there is a way to hear my own voice through my PS3 headset/mic?
Having headphones on makes it hard to hear my own voice so naturally I will want to speak louder even though it's completely unnecessary.
I'm googled some and looked through PS3 settings but haven't come up with anything. It may just not be an option through the PS3.
I think I may have read some headsets like the Turtle Beach ones offer that function.
Turtle Beaches have the feature, they call it "Mic Monitoring" It is just a tiny bit of audio so that you know you are heard.
Any gaming headset worth it's salt will have this. Depending on your budget and the seriousness of your gaming you can check out several brands.
My very first headset was Turtle Beach X11. They have a newer model out now called the X12. There are a lot of models to choose from for them and other vendors.
Astro and Triton are two other vendors. I love my Astros. I can soundwhore people in SnD all day long with them.
When it comes to gaming headsets you get what you pay for.

Same here. Ive had games of dom where a guy will do nothing but camp a corner no where near any of the points. I also hate when people will play objective games and not really understand how they work.
Randomly happened to check the lobby leaderboard while I was waiting for a match to start yesterday and saw that one of the other players was ranked in the low 200s in TDM and his friend was in the 300s. Easily two of the highest ranked players I've played with.
I used to get a little nervous when seeing these high level guys playing. But, after playing a few matches with them, they usually are just guys that play the game a TON...If they aren't in a party, I can keep up with them.Randomly happened to check the lobby leaderboard while I was waiting for a match to start yesterday and saw that one of the other players was ranked in the low 200s in TDM and his friend was in the 300s.

But, if its a bunch of high level people in a party, I'll back out/throw my xbox out the window.
It sort of depends for me. I will play regular death match usually because there is a better chance I'll get a better ping. But you're right -- I play mercenary as well.PLAY MERCENARY.
Why do people play modes where people can party up? All you're asking for is to be abused. The other day I was playing w/ Kabob and a few others from AVS and we were totally dominating. Someone was playing split screen on the other team and I believe they were like a combined 1 and 58. If I play in the Mercenary lobby, I'm generally #1 or #2 on the winning team - good players have that much influence.

Any news on the dates for maps? Ive seen some screen shots but have yet to see when they are coming out. And I think its about time for a double XP weekend now that the mountain dew thing is done.
Jan 24 is the first elite only drop. So the peasants will get their first pack a month or two after that.
Does it say how many or should we be ready for the typical 5? Maybe link?
