BigQEd 0 Posted February 14, 2002 Ok... where is the In-Game Voice option? After all it requires the least amount of system resources and works the best in OFP. Atleast on Servers and Networks that are designed properly. Why would anyone wish to use a Third-Party Com? Makes NO sense. Why would BIS want or need us to vote on this? Again makes no sense...

Angry Radish 0 Posted February 14, 2002 So yours is the only network that is designed properly? Damn, what are the odds.... I agree, ingame voice should be an option, but what if you only want to have voice comms with your clan only, and dont want some 12 yearold blaring Barry Manilow over the line? Can the ingame voice comms be password protected? Also, for those that don't have alot of bandwidth, or at least those that don't like to brag about it in every post, why not use an alternate voice comm program to offload some traffic on something else? Just a couple possibilities... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigQEd 0 Posted February 14, 2002 Now Radish I did not say ours was the ONLY one. Yes there are issue with In-Game Voice however we need to encourage BIS to fix these issues instead of blatantly promoting all other forms of COM. IMO Radish... man you are pretty hard on me  Understand that we at FragHaus/FIRSTNet are proud of the Network we have built. We have many game servers... not just OFP... and we also have a Game Server Hosting Network for others to utilize (mostly Clans/Squads take advantage of this). So yeah I do a 'little' promotion   (Sorry if it offends) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheOberleutnant 0 Posted February 14, 2002 Ive used the ingame chat and Roger Wilco and i think Roger Wilco is better. No reason why, I just like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sergeant rock 3 Posted February 14, 2002 My squad prefers TEAMSOUND for its clarity, functionality, and limited bandwidth. We can create separate groups on the same TEAMSOUND server such as Alpha, Delta, Offense, Defense, etc. and limit the chatter on a channel. I also think the GUI is intuitive, you can password protect your channels, and you are given many setup options. Which one is best is debatable...but we've found TEAMSOUND to fit our needs best.

Rage_Frost 0 Posted February 14, 2002 Well I know we use the in game voice and it rock's thats why were so good. But I would love..... to see B.I.S. make it so their are more options for it like group chat. You would only hear your group not the general chat. That would be nice. And maybe have them tweak the direct speaking chat alittle turn up the sound alittle I dont wont to max my speakers so I can hear someone 2 feet from me lol. If they fix the Direct speaking that would make alot of us happy again, make that so it would void out the general and group chat too. please bis look into that i know that wont be too hard to throw in the next patch lol.

Makes NO sense.<span id='postcolor'> For us the ablity to eg Roger wilco on a separate dedicated server seems to reduce the load on any PC involved in the game. Also allows for unlimited number of channels - not just two sides. Allows us to "boot" those own use the voice comms incorrectly. It can be used for a varity of games, not just OFP.

Dynablue 1 Posted February 14, 2002 Teamsound has been a longtime favorite of my group. It's much clearer transmission than Roger Wilco. We probably would use ingame comms but haven't ever been able to get them to work properly, ie, no voice transmission at all. Anyone have suggestions for me? Er, suggestions about VON, that is.

RN Malboeuf 12 Posted February 15, 2002 in the last two years i have used all and found that each is better with certain game ED has compaind on the usage of band width b4 so thats why I never placed it in the poll as well I would rather have privacy when it came to clan matches so the built inVON is not an option they (BIS) should have played Quake or UT for atleast a week of thier lives and should have known this would have been an issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted February 15, 2002 and since the RN sever is on an OC3 as well we equally Frags net service since we are tied into a direct 2 gigbit line to the out side from that connection we exceed it as well with higher CPU speed and a faster net work in the building. and the fact that we have 16 inbound servers this week for gaming, Level 13 a sub service of EMI communication will be renting servers out since we have little use of of high net connection Free for me since I own 50% as of last week heh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigQEd 0 Posted February 15, 2002 Keep dreaming Mal... I checked your connection out. You are a sub-host of another provider and they do not have OC3 connectivity at that hub. Sorry guy... Please stop posting false information. It's very uncool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted February 15, 2002 A sub host lol. really please EMI is the old ISP building that ran the entire Western part of our province untill two years ago. EMI is what you find at the end of the server trace, they own it all and it's a OC3 direct to the that server. the hop before is MTS, which is what this building used to be, it's not only tied directly into the one of the largest Fiber Rings in central canada it is apart of it you just conect to yours Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
