Well there are a lot of these games sold on ebay without the headsets.Ive always found it to e pretty chicken**** for people to sell a copy of Warhawk without the headset and then chrage $40 for the game I thought I had ought a copy wit the headset ut I had so many pages open the day I ought mine that I inadvertantly bought thew wrong game. I do think its kind of rude to play a game that requiers communication wihtout any means of communicating...but thenI want to play the game. Well, I still have TOCA3 to play until my headset gets here.
$40 is the MSRP of the game without headset. So unless they advertised the normally $60 boxed set it shouldn't have come with one. That may be your confusion.
Which side do you fight under, or do you play oth sides?
I set up my default as Chernovan, just because I like the look of their jet better, and it is easier to see the customization on it. That said, decent games have a setting to balance teams, so if I join a game and the Eucadian side is short one or more people it will put me there. I don't mind as all weapons are the same and it keeps the game balanced.
What is annoying is when we go into a new game on the same server and it auto-switches me to my default team when the balance switches. I don't get a notice, so unless I pay attention all I know is that I think I have an enemy in my base. And while it is easy to catch yourself at the start of the game, in the heat of battle it is very easy to kill a teammate without thinking. It is especially bad if you see a heated battle in the distance and whip out your sniper rifle. Sometimes at distance you cannot see the uniforms so you are just going by whether their names are in blue or red and after shooting at red for an hour it is easy to forget that you are now red. And with a sniper rifle there is no chance to stop shooting when you make your mistake. If you make a mistake they are dead. Sure they respawn but the damage is done.
Auto-switching has only happened to me twice but it is a bugger when it does.
Also, I have internet access on the PS3 finally,I've even been racing online with my TOCA3 but all I can do with my browser is go to the Playstation Store or the Playstation website or forum. Anything furhter than that just doesn't happen. Is theer some way around that to just get to the interwebs likes everyone else????
First, give us your PSN ID (or list it under your avatar-I haven't checked the PSN ID thread yet). EDIT: Just checked, you did list it. Add me if I don't add you first. I need more Americans on my list and we can do some one-on-one Warhawk to get you used to it before you go into the big battles.
As for the browser:
1) You did click on Internet Browser and not Playstation Store? I assume yes since you are in the Playstation Forums, but just checking.
2) Have you pushed Triangle yet while in the browser? That opens a whole menu of options, just like in the XMB. General hint on the PS3 (and PSP): Triangle = options menu always (music, movies, pictures, browser, Folding@Home, XMB, anything but in-game).
3) The place to enter a URL is under the file menu. OR, Start is the hot button to bring up the URL entry screen. Just type it in, using the handy on screen keyboard, and off you go.
nu'ttin. I did an update night before last soI'll see if that helped. 
I'll be glad once I get more used to the controls. Last night my last game was fought in the capitol and man it was pretty fevered. It was the first one I had gone though where the shooting was constant. It was fun even if I did get my arse handed to me on a plate time after time. With any luck my headset will bbe here in week
