how do i mute my mic for multiplayer im using a laptop

They did the same in NFS the Run.  I guess they just think its amusing to always have someone yapping in your ear most times in another language.  Was the main reason I stopped playing Multiplayer.  Nothing says enjoyment like feed back looping blowing out your ears.

yeah i would prefer that my microphone isnt enabled in game because i use teamspeak for voice chat as do my friends i play with, its annoing to have to constantly mute them and everybody in a public game i would also not like everyone to beable to hear me in game

There is no "mute microphone" option in the game at the moment, but you actually can mute other players. Open EasyDrive, then open player list and you can mute every person manually.

I hope they'll add voice chat options soon. It's a bit annoying that I can't talk to my friends in Skype/TeamSpeak because other players will hear my voice in the game...

yeah i just tell them to mute me if they dont want to hear me talking to people on my teamspeak there really needs to be an option to disable voice chat in and out bound

To me it is amazing that my mic is ON by default in the first place!

Let alone not being able to turn it off 😕mileyfrustrated:?!

It should be on an opt-in basis, aren't there any privacy issues involved?

If you plan on playing more multiplayer games that have voice chat you're better off getting a headset anyway, people will be able to hear you more clearer and you'll be able to hear them better too. Plus you can mute yourself whenever you want.

that sounds like a major privacy issue, automatically activating your microphone online without any way to disable it i dont need everybody online hearing my conversations im having on my private teamspeak i really hope they add an option to disable voice chat and your microphone

PLEASE MAKE OPTION: MUTE ALL

or put some option like voice in all game OFF!

Next game same problem this  solution  NOT WORK!

Team speaks, ventrill,o mumble, skype,  not in f.. voice in game!

Developers make some patch  pls!

i found a solution to disabling YOUR microphone from broadcasting online just set some other disabled device as your default communication device
