To all who have installed the wiispeak channel. Have you tried after installation or playing the conduit switching it out for a usb headset?

Do you guys use the lock on button when playing online? I tried it last night and when you combine it with the rocket launcher, you can rack up some killing sprees. Feels a bit cheap though.

I've tried it but I always forget to use it so no. It feels unnatural to me. I can aim just fine without it. Just ask Kraken when I use a SCAR on him

I guess I assumed someone has tried that but it it is a good idea. I don't have a USB one though.

First of all, i fixed your post. Secondly, i've never had calamari but i'm assuming i won't like it.. normally i'd jump at the chance to squish this squid but i can't play tonight. Family is visiting all the way from spain and i'm obligated to spend time with them.. dammit.

I don't think a regular USB headset would work, it would have been public knowledge by now.

kraken613 · « **Reply #1906 on:** July 01, 2009, 04:02:59 PM »

No, it doesn't trust me I tried before ordering my Wii Speak.

Are you originally from Spain? I'd love to go there some day.

LOL, spellcheck wants to change Kraken to Karen. Ha Ha!

"No, it doesn't trust me I tried before ordering my Wii Speak."

Well, I am thinking that the wiispeak channel download provides the driver needed to run it, once that driver is loaded, try a differnt mike. Did you try it with Wii speak channel installed or was it not installed yet?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #1909 on:** July 01, 2009, 05:34:54 PM »

I donno, would Nyko or Mad Catz or someone have a Wii headset available if this was the case?

It probably depends on demand. Until now Animal Crossing was the only game that used it. I have a feeling Conduit has opened the floodgates and more games will start to use it. It already has a market with the various sound issues in game.

I think someone may be working on one.

we need this USB Wireless Headset, but it should only cover one ear unless they can do stereo/surround voice chat.

Stereo/surround Voice chat would be real good for a FPS as you could hear what direction the person talking to you is coming from. Could also make for some interesting gameplay concepts.

BwrJim! · « **Reply #1912 on:** July 01, 2009, 06:26:55 PM »

I wouldn't forsee madcatz or nyko making anything. If the channel is the driver, then it forces people to at least purchase the wii speak device first, then may a 3rd party like logitech could make a mic.. of course if you count rockband, developers could always just program in the functionality and let the users just get whatever. but that would be easy and simple.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #1913 on:** July 01, 2009, 06:29:06 PM »

Why would the channel be the driver? I deleted that channel but I'm pretty sure Wii Speak still works.

Stratos · « **Reply #1914 on:** July 01, 2009, 06:34:21 PM »

It's not the driver. There was a system update that included the addition of WiiSpeak support.

Something interesting happened to me in single player ( no i still haven't finished it )

I was in the Homeland level. When I was fighting the two super giant creatures And the game froze. I was pissed off obviously, but I was worried that I would have to restart the level again. That is a big level and it took some time and a number of deaths to get to that point already.

When after I turned off the Wii . ( Held down the Power Button)

I went back into the game and went back into "Continue" and boom the last checkpoint is where I started. The game froze up but still it saved the last place I was. That's pretty damn cool. I wished it didn't freeze to begin with but I was happy I was exactly where I left off before it froze.

Stratos · « **Reply #1916 on:** July 01, 2009, 07:06:57 PM »

Yeah, the game saves your checkpoint progress. I discovered that when I got bored on the second level and left halfway through the mission. I started the game back up and it put me at my last checkpoint. Pretty nice I think.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #1917 on:** July 01, 2009, 11:49:56 PM »

You don't need the Wii Speak Channel to use Wii Speak. It would be nice if USB microphones would work at least - since that's basically what Wii Speak is, it's not a headset, since it lacks speaker output (though I guess if you want to get technical, all speakers can also be microphones...).

BwrJim! · « **Reply #1918 on:** July 02, 2009, 09:33:33 AM »

"It's not the driver. There was a system update that included the addition of WiiSpeak support." Oh yeah,. I forgot about that update.. how about this, try plugging in the wii speak mic into an updated computer system with new drivers. See what the computer thinks it is. I just checked on the mic from Rockband and it registers as a logitech. just fun things to do really.

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #1919 on:** July 02, 2009, 12:44:45 PM »

Yo I'm on bored and online. I've been having good matches online, plz add me pretty plz 3953-4941-5589

I am about to add you and I will play ya!

Through all of these post we have all done, I am curious how the friend codes work with this game. Say I take Kraken wii code there above me, and I enter it. and of course he does the same. Now since our wiis now have each others phone numbers, in the conduit.. would I just be able to select something like, send friend request to this system? or is there more manual input?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #1922 on:** July 02, 2009, 01:22:33 PM »

you can do either.

If you already have is WiiCode then you can send a friend request, otherwise you input his conduit code and he is attached only through the game.

I was just about to add DaAaMan and play some Conduit, but I just changed my router and can't get my Wii to connect to it yet. Will someone with some computer savvy hop over to -->This thread<-- and help me out.

kraken613 · « **Reply #1923 on:** July 02, 2009, 01:47:10 PM »

Ah, you lagged out bad!

I have to go to work in a minute though. I will look at that thread when I get to work. I work at a computer shop so I am on the computer all day long.

I'm surprised there's no Battery indicator in the HUD.
