Socom is a hybrid of open mic and push to talk, Push to talk will talk to everyone on your team regardless of their location. while open mic will talk to anyone in your vicinity and it goes through the main speaker including the other team, including dead enemies too ;), it's not bad quality at all either. They've planned a party system that allows open mic to people in your party, but i don't think it's in the game yet. It is a really nice combo, I'm surprised no other game has used it before.
