    TeamSpeak

    Hey I don't know if anyone here has ever used teamspeak before, but I was thinking it would be fun to make a server for us, its free, and all you have to do is have a computer up 24/7 to be able connect everyone together.

    (also I can host the chat it wouldn't be a problem,that's why I'm asking.)

    I've used one before. It's not a bad idea. Ventrilo is another option. They're about the same as far as the free tier. It's been a while since I've been on either one but I still have both clients installed on my PC.

    Really nice to have when playing MMO PC games that don't have voice or have crappy voice channels. I suppose it would be nice to have running on a laptop while on the PS3 but not sure how many of us have that option. Maybe take a headcount.

    I think it would be good for some instances, like when we have 25 people on MAG we don't ALL have to be in the same group to organize a game. Other than that some of us will run into this issue, the Bluetooth Headsets, not all laptops/Desktops are Bluetooth compatible like the PS3. Not everyone has a wired headset.

    Re: TeamSpeak

    yeah that is true Timmy, but I wasn't thinking of it for MAG and being able to take with other groups though, I was thinking more of a fun thing when people aren't in game. But that does make a great point and we could make separate channels for different games.


    Also commenting on Vent.. I can't get it to work without paying for the hosting. if you could send me information about setting it up I would be glad to use it also. (I prefer Vent, but was unable to set up a server myself)
