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.

The proximity open mic thing is a bit annoying, but not that bad I guess.  Although in a clan match it seems like it'd be useful when you just need to talk to the person next to you, especially now with 16 on a team (I can't actually remember what S3 did, mostly played 1 and 2).  Are dead people still in a seperate channel from the people still alive?
