The Racers & Chasers Club [Moved to FH4]

[DurWinning]

Alright, who would be available for a lobby in 2 hours? We'll be starting with Most Wanted, and afterwards switch to Open Patrol if there is enough interest. Class will be A class again.

I could probably make it. I just need to build some more A class cars.

@DurWinning and @TheKitten are both in!

Well, I'm out for the count today (for now, at least). So, if you want to get a lobby going yourself, @ZDUPH or whoever else, go ahead. Just tell me what mode, time, and class, and I'll put it up on the website.


I'm pretty sure a decent amount of members just use the standard Xbox mic that comes with the system. (I think @AudiMan2011 is one person who uses it.) That thing costs $20-$25 separately last time I checked and it's not that bad from what I'm hearing in the lobbies. Some people probably use more expensive headsets but honestly, it doesn't make much of a difference.

You should REALLY get a headset Toy. It makes it 200 times easier to communicate with other cops. Hell, you don't have to talk constantly if you don't want to. You can just say you're in a chase and give out your location. Same with you @JASON_ROCKS1998.

If you have a Xbox controller with the 3.5mm headset port, any cheap pair of earbuds with a mic will do the trick. Granted the sound quality will be horrible, and you'll most likely have an echo, but they'll work.

@ToyGTone - My Xbox One headset was only £20 due to me buying it during a Black Friday Sale.

Thats one thing i cannot fault with this club is that those who do use Mics, You can nearly always hear them & make out what their saying.
Also one of the clubs rules is - Do not play music or start singing over the microphone.
So i think thats another reason why the Mics may sound cleaner.

Logitech G430....$50 plus Tax and Shipping prices. I'm just gonna quote this:

It works fine on a PC or a PS4, however the 7.1 USB sound card thing won't work with the Xbox One System so i had to use that "Mic+audio to 3.5MM" Adapter to combine Mic/Audio into one 3.5mm but then when i plug it into my controller, sometimes i hear nothing and other times i hear the audio. I also hear some cracking each time the wires moves a bit. The mic doesn't work and for some reason when i use that adapter, i don't get the game/party chat balance option meaning i only hear the voice chat. Oddly, using only the audio 3.5mm wire makes that option appear and audio sounds a lot better.

I think i need to find a new adapter.

My Xbox did came with that Headset but i accidentally ended up sitting on it and broke it while i was with my friend playing Battlefield 1 Beta.

G230 here. On PC it's fine. The G430 should work on your controller since you have the mic+audio to 3.5mm cable.

I'll be getting one next Monday, or even tomorrow if the store near me has them in stock (they have the XB1 Official Chat Headset on their website for £15)

You can't use the 7.1 USB thing with the Xbox, I'm pretty sure about that. If you're hearing cracking when you move it, then yeah, probably need to get a new a cable.

I can't, eating lunch

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

Alright ladies and gents, here's the route for Most Wanted today:

"Tearing up a dormant construction site can be fun, unless a law-abiding citizen tips the Five-0 off about it. Using a 2006 Audi RS4, make your way to the safe zone located at a farmhouse in Yarra Valley, all while keeping the GCPD off your tail. Utilize the many open fields and trails, and try to stay one step ahead of the law."

Start Point:

End Point:

As mentioned in the challenge info, you'll be using a 2006 Audi RS4. The vehicle must be stock, and painted in a manufacturer color. Police vehicles will be upgraded to the very top of A class, so keeping them off you may be difficult. The 4WD should help you navigate the trails and fields with ease, while the powerful V8 will give you enough juice to zip through the streets. The Highway IS allowed for this.

Welp, looks like we got another car that goes in the "Vehicles you've won from wheelspins, then promptly forgot about it until today" category.

First time I've actually ever driven this thing, and I gotta say, I like it!
Should make for an awesome Most Wanted.
Lobby will be going up in roughly 20 minutes.
