Halo 3: The A-Hole Button
If you die on Sidewinder, will anybody hear you scream?
From TeamXBox:
Bungie has revealed in its latest weekly update that Halo 3 will let you mute players from the game, without having to call for the Xbox 360 dashboard. This will be possible thanks to the "A-Hole Button":
So now, you simply press a button (back button, for the moment anyway) and up comes the score list with everyone's tag on it. The right stick lets you highlight the miscreant and you can then instantly mute them for the rest of the game.
It is worth mentioning that any user that you have already silenced via the Xbox 360 dashboard will automatically be muted in Halo 3 like you muted him or her using this new "A-Hole Button
04-14-10, The Final Tax Dodge. Rest in peace, big man.
Unofficial Goodjer Secret Santa 4.0 Call for Santas coming October 1.





Seems like a step in the right direction, though a better solution for goodjers would be to just play with goodjers.

Aww, I thought there was going to be a button that I can push to be a complete asshole. That would've been relevant to my interests.

If I ever get an Xbox I will be muting everyone by default. I don't need to listen to the shrill noises of overstimulated 13-year-old miscreants with a sugar high from all the chocolate milk their mom is still breastfeeding them.
May I suggest just not plugging in your headset instead?

Then you get to listen to them coming from your TV, not much better.
My days of not taking you seriously have certainly come to a middle.

Are you saying that in-game voices are fed to a separate headset from the actual game sounds ? That's neat.
Well plug it in and don't put it on your head then, Mr. Smarty McFactsPants!
Absolutely. There is also the option in Halo 2 for using teamspeak come over the headset and the voices of those in proximity (possibly enemies) come out the speakers.

Muting is not enough. I want to deliver a painful electric shock.
