There are several different voice chat problems that people are having. 1. Can speak but cannot hear others 2. Can try to open the channel but not get confirmation beep 3. Game freezes when channel is open for talking 4. Headset and voice chat does not work at ALL
First, try the SINGLE user game, and try giving bravo team a voice command 'BRAVO MOVE TO CROSSHAIRS' If the icon does not light up with little volume bars flashing, then the headset is not working. If it lights up but BRAVO does not respond, speak more clearly, less loudly, or more loudly, until they do.
Ok now return to ONLINE.
If the game freezes when pressing O try rebooting your PS2.. this seems to be a weird glitch that is cured by that.
If nobody can talk, then it maybe because the game HOST (session master) is behind a router that blocks UDP packets needed for arbitration of who has the voice channel. Until that host quits, talking will not work.
Almost nobody has client side headset problems with they are DIRECTLY CONNECTED to their high speed modem. Ok, but if you are behind a router of some kind, or using Windows ICS, then make sure that a firewall is not blocking INCOMING udp ports 6000-6999 ... if it is, then do the following
* Disable the firewall * Place the PS2 IP address or physical port on the router into the router DMZ (refer to router manual) * Configure the router, using its web interface or other telnet interface, to FORWARD this port range to the PS2 IP address
