How to mute individual players

You can mute players at any time during a multiplayer match. To do so, follow the steps below:

1. Open the multiplayer scoreboard.
   • On Keyboard/Mouse, press the Tab key.
   • On Controller, press the View button.
2. Press the button indicated by the menu prompt at the bottom of the screen to enable interactive mode. You will be unable to move or look around in-game after entering interactive mode.
   • If there is no button or key listed at the bottom of the screen, the Scoreboard Interact binding may not be set. Select the Controller or Keyboard/Mouse tab in the Settings menu, then scroll down to the Campaign Menu/Scoreboard section to change this binding.
3. From the scoreboard, navigate to the Gamertag of the player you wish to mute.
4. Press the corresponding button prompt at the bottom of the screen to mute the player.
5. Press the corresponding button prompt at the bottom of the screen to close interactive mode and return to gameplay.

To determine if a player is muted or unmuted, open the multiplayer scoreboard and check the white speaker icon to the left of their Gamertag. Muted players will have a diagonal line striking through their speaker icon. You cannot unmute a player that has muted themselves.
