voip and vehicles

wraithverge · 2012-07-16, 07:18 PM

Hey one of the most annoying things about teamspeak in my opinion is the fact that when you are signed into a channel in a tank, you need to talk to just members of the that tank. Likewise if you are running a full tank column, if you are all in the same squad it's going to get loud and annoying. Can we put in multiple channels? IE press 1 to speak on squad, 2 to speak local, and 3 to speak to people only in the vehicle (maybe 4 for all coms). This would allow us to cut com chatter while keeping individual efficiency.

If you can do this in TS I've never figured it out, sorry.

There are Keybinds for each channel, no vehicle specific ones however.

Edit: And yes, possible in TeamSpeak.

I believe that it's also possible in teamspeak, although I've never looked into it.

Do you mean on TS or in PS2?

PS, see link

Edit: Though, now I thought I remember hearing of vehicle, but didn't see a keybind specified for it.

vve. that idea has been bothering me for a week, back to waiting impatiently for beta.

Personally, I wouldn't hate it if they completely ripped of the ACRE mod for ARMA 2 to deal with communications.

Oh. Everything is auto-linked now so I've stopped clicking on them.

Yeah, I recall them specifically mentioning vehicle VOIP channels, and thinking that it was the awesomest thing. I will be sad if they cut that.

You can do this in TS3 via whispergroups but it's a giant pain in the ass.

I hope the voip can be as complex as TS3.

Just so long as I can turn it off/on at will, I will be content.

It'd get very annoying to be on TS3 only to be interrupted by some kid on VoiP.
