I have no microphone, I don't want one. I play Fifa and Forza and there is people speaking in microphones sometimes in the online part of these games. It is very annoying and I can't find how to mute these people. I just want the normal game sounds not people screaming and yelling.

I don't know sometimes it is quite entertaining, especially when the people forget they have the mic on.

In forza you click on the players name(when in the multiplayer lobby) and select 'mute'...

It's hardly solving differential equations.....

I think he was simply showing another way to do it. No need for the cheek really.....

Maybe people will think twice about helping you in future, he was only offering you a different way there was no need to be smarmy.

There is no need for someone to come in with a smart ass reply weeks after it has been solved with a SUPERB step by step solution to turn off all the stupid mic noise.

The persons quote about "differential equations" was meant to demean me by a person who obviously feels superior. This thread was dead and it was totally unnecessary for the guy to come in with his sarcastic superior comments.

The 'superb step by step solution' was simply one way of doing it. The person replied with another. They may have not noticed it was weeks since the last reply.

You could have simply said "Thanks, but got it solved earlier'. You chose to be rude and got called out on it.

You're both right....

I was showing a different way of doing it which can be applied to individual players as opposed to a blanket 'kill all voice chat' method mentioned earlier. I find the chat very useful on Forza and sometimes it's more appropriate to mute an individual player.

I was being sarky in response because I felt it's really lame to not know/work out how to do it and have to post a forum to ask such a thing, imo it's a tad lazy. I don't believe there was google searches as it's pretty much the top result with multiple variations of the search term 'Disable Mic Chat Xbox One', it would be harder to miss how to do it then to go and find it. It's not meant to be about being superior, it's about stop being so lame and work it out yourself....I should've used 'it's not rocket science'

I don't read the Xbox forum very much, it's died a death in here and as such I might not see a topic for weeks after it was done.

No real offence was meant to be given, but it's quite a lame question!!
