wowzersspeed109 0 Posted May 20, 2015 Does any1 know what headsets will be compatible for the voice recognition (talking to the pit box) on f1 2015 on the xbox one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Britpoint 4 Posted May 20, 2015 On Xbox One the engineer communication uses the Kinect system. So it needs a Kinect rather than a headset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWRCharger 0 Posted May 21, 2015 Or in other words, if your running game chat, there's gonna be a lot of back ground noise from others talking to the pit box lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wowzersspeed109 0 Posted May 21, 2015 I heard on a YouTube video that the kinect was being used as a microphone but also that there were available headsets that would do the same (he mentioned which ones would)but now I can't find the video!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VDV23 0 Posted May 21, 2015 If it's Kinect-only it'd be quite disappointing but it makes sense actually. Hopefully it works with my Turtle Beach XO ONE as I bought kinect-less Xbox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Britpoint 4 Posted May 21, 2015 It uses the Kinect hardware/software to process the voice commands, it's not only a microphone. So voice commands can only function on the XB1 with a Kinect attached.Headsets can be used on the PS4 version because Sony's recognition system runs on the console firmware itself.

Just of out of my curiosity, as I don't have neither PS4 nor XB1, if someone bought the XB1 bundle without the Kinect hardware piece/camera that person won't be able to use the voice commands?I seem to remember that someone mentioned a potential post-release addition of the voice commands on PC. Can you let us know if it's really on the cards? @Britpoint Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We'd love to if we can, but there's absolutely no guarantee it'll be feasible. You know me MVB, I play all my stuff on PC and I'd quite like to use the system I worked so hard on! :) But how we'd accomplish that is something that needs investigating, which we'll do after release.

Joethe155 8 Posted May 21, 2015 @Britpoint, would the headset that comes with the PS4 work for commands with the engineer? Or would a PS4 camera be needed? I know you can do a few things with the stock headset like start games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know you can do a few things with the stock headset like start games. Yes the default one will work fine. On the PS4 any mic with a 3.5mm jack should be fine. Although the PS4 will be calibrated to work best with the stock mic or PS4 camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AyrotonS296 0 Posted May 22, 2015 I have PS4, does it already come with a mic or do i need a camera or headset, is there one installed in the PS4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpecOps1UK 0 Posted May 22, 2015 Did you buy it as new? If so, look in the box for a puny little black ear bud. It has a mic about 10 inches down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
