I didn't realize that was his position. He *is* doing that well, however, he made it seem like the dev was warning me in that post. I guess his post took that thread a little out of context, which made me upset. The majority of that thread was in good humor, untill one guy got mad, and I told him to enjoy the thread and have fun or go elsewhere. However, from the way he posted that, it would seem that the admin was unhappy with the entire thread from the get go. It may be a good idea to put the thread into context, otherwise every new person to the forum will just be mocked for their noob questions. It does get frustrating for people who were around this far ahead of release, but the noobs will increase 100 fold between now and release and their posts will too. It won't get any better. I apologize for the misunderstanding though (I'll get you another stalker to make up for it Hamma ).

*If* we do voice IP support, it will be peer-to-peer...for sure.
In otherwords, it won't affect our servers at all. Each player would be passing voice information directly from his computer to the other computers in the "channel". What this means is that there would be a theoretical limit of how many players could be connected together based upon how the system is implemented...or which third-party software you use for voice chat. It would affect YOUR bandwidth...not ours. In otherwords, you might see some lagging and stuff in-game that would have NOTHING to do with Planetside itself...but rather, it would be due to the fact that you're jamming a bunch more data through your bandwidth because you're using a Voice IP system. Make sense? We don't officially support voice IP systems because...quite frankly...it's a real pain in the butt training people how to use third-party software. (After all...that's what THEIR tech support folks are for...right?

With most games that have voice-com built in, (ex. Tribes 2 and Half Life) the majority of gamers playing just use third person stuff anyhows.
A) It usually sounds WAY better and B) They're used to it already I'd rather have the game out than wait for the dev team to mess around working on one more feature that few are going to use.

Please quit with the personal attacks. This is a nice forum and I would hate to see mroe of that chicanery going on here. Also, I didn't just start Doing this for fun. Hamma put up an ad for a forum hound, I took it, and ran with it. It IS fun.
