LISTENING

You hear three different types of communication during single player games:

• Team member communications which include acknowledging your orders or giving

situation reports including kills, warnings and personal status.

• Objective status reports and new intel important to the mission.

• Warnings when you drift out of the mission area.

Alternatively, you can issue commands using buttons.

1. Open the team command menu, and press

2. Designate WHO will receive the order. Press the directional button

1/2 to

select TEAM, ABLE, or BRAVO.

3. Press

x to open the sub-menu for the highlighted command, then press x

again to execute the command.

Note: SOCOM II: U.S. Navy SEALs is designed to issue voice commands

via the SOCOM headset or USB headset (for PlayStation

®2). However, the

headset is optional. You can also issue commands using button controls.

Use the headset to:

• Issue voice commands to your SEAL team during single player missions.

• Receive Commands and Intel updates from SOCOM during single player missions.

• Conduct 2-way conversations with other players during Online Games. See “Online

Communication” for information on headset usage.

ISSUING VOICE COMMANDS (SINGLE PLAYER)

To send a voice command to your team, first press c to open the command menu.

Say the command exactly as it appears on the menu out loud until you become

comfortable with them. A command consists of three basic components spoken with

a normal voice into your headset microphone:

1. Say WHO you are commanding—This is the first part of a command and the first

menu you see displayed on-screen. Say “FIRETEAM” if you are directing an order

to all three members. Say “BRAVO” if you intend to issue an order to only the

two members of Bravo Element. Say “ABLE” if you want only your partner to take

action. Say “ESCORTEE” to direct an order to someone traveling with your team.

Note: Other names will appear for various characters that can travel with

your SEAL team in later missions.

2. Say WHAT you want done—This is the second part of

the command to communicate what you want done.

The menu will appear to prompt you.

3. Say WHERE or HOW you want the order carried out—

in some cases you need to further define your order.

It may be a map location or the type of explosive you

want deployed. See “The Commands” section to view

all the commands you can issue to your team.
