Heh i know BB thought copie paste also works.:rolleyes:
Changed it ..
I'll be busy with an assignment so I reckon it's unlikely i'll be able to participate in this one. :sad:
Maybe, I'll confirm closer to the date. I also need to sort out my XAC as it fudged up last time I tried to play a match.

You also need to be registered on ED and have xac as BB mentions.
Put me down as a reserve as I should be around.

Cool, looking forward to kicking some *ss :D
Diary is empty so i guess i can make it :D

Sign me in as reserve. I'll play if there's not enough ppl going to join the match. I'm going for reserve because it's 23.00 my time and that's a bit late at a sunday evening. But I'll do it if anyone other doesn't:D
Can you put the TeamSpeak details in your 1st post (or start another) for those that don't know:)
for those that don't know, TS is essential for matches as you can communicate even when dead.
I think I'll have to get my headset back then:D
Reserve if needed.

I could've sworn I'd played a match with TS:blink:
Ah well:doh:

I've mentioned it before that we should use Ventrilo or Teamspeak but apparently its not the done thing?
Shame as everyone else will be using it.
Can all match players and the reserve players join Baldric half hour before the match starts for some practise.
For those that plays for the first time.
Turn on your XAC anti cheat proggie before you join the match server.
For those that still haven't the client look here for Whitey's thread that he has made.

We did when there was issues with the in-game comms.
If we are using Vent/TS for CoD then I see no reason not to use it for CS.

Agreed Whitey but i thought it wasn't the dMw style.?
Quote from: KKND;259182Agreed Whitey but i thought it wasn't the dMw style.?
It's not something I have a strong opinion on. Using it is within the rules in ED and if we're doing it with CoD, I see no reason why CS should be any different. I'll leave it to the War arrangers (you and Kreg) to decide if you want to use something other than the in game comms. If you do, then let me know.
Kreg and i have Discuss bout using teamspeak for matches.
Whe are gonna use this from now on.:)
Details teamspeak will be added later.

Whitey is busy with it.
He needs some time to set all things up,so tonight is too early Jabbs.
I've set up TeamSpeak Server on my PC here so we can test the idea later if you want?
I have a 20Mb connection so shouldn't be a problem with speed.
The details are:
Server IP address:
82.45.24.28
Server password:
Same as MH
cant we just ask the dmr guys to use a channel on their vent server???
update:::: ts wont install on my vista 64 system, will though on my spare xp comp , since steam is on my vista comp it seems I cant use it:sad:
update no2 got it running
I noticed you connected to my TS while I was out, cool :D
Is TS a program that I'll have to download? And I don't know if I can play on that evening because I haven't got my HS back and it seems that it's a must to be able to communicate via voice coms while playing matches:sad:

Client download is the one you want.
You will just need to configure the server (whichever one we use), add a password and click connect. Configure your 'push to talk' button also.
Quote from: WhiteWolf;259305Is TS a program that I'll have to download?
You can get it from here (http://www.teamspeak.com/?page=downloads)
Please remember that Teamspeak should ONLY be used for matches and match practice sessions.
It should never be used on Boomer or Meathook.
Why can't we just use the voice comming that we use on boomer or MH?:blink:

I don't know. I have never understood this need to use TS when the built in voice comms are perfectly good if you bother to set it up properly.

I can explain here why TS is better then in vc but that aint very smart i suppose.:g:

Using Teamspeak allows you to have a chat before the match to arrange things, join the match server while still discussing tactics, sort out any issues people are having joining the match server, talk about the next rounds tactics before the round restarts, tell your team mates where you died (contentious but true)....
There are a lot of benefits but none that have a place on the TCS servers, only in matches where us using TS will make it a level playing field.

Well ill be the one to do so then, me and Kknd was discussing what we should be using and decided to get with TS, as every other team on ED probably does..
As whitey stated it can be used to say where you died after you actualyl died, which to some is cheating i know..
But as every other team on ED uses TS, i can assure you they will be using every chance they get on getting an edge over you in a match..
Its not our way i know, but should we limit ourselves compared to other teams.
Yet again as whitey stated TS gives you the ability to actually arrange next rounds tactic before next round is actually started.
If anyone got any issues with what i wrote, please say so
Well I've downloaded that TS so I'll use it then. If I can get my HS back during this year:sideways:
I am no longer able to attend the match on Sunday due to family commitments.
Sorry chaps.

Is your family finally having you committed?
:narnar:
Re the Teamspeak/Ventrilo discussion:
I know that some might think that it is not the dMw way because it might give an "unfair advantage". If this is the only reason why we don't use it, then I say it will NOT give us an unfair advantage as Kreg has already mentioned every other team uses either of the two.
If however, we don't want to use TS/Ventrilo due to moral/ethical reasons, then we should not use it.
For me, I say we should use it. The advantage gained on a properly set up server is minimal as blackout normally takes place after a couple of seconds. On other servers you are allowed to spec your teammates and therefore the 'advantage' increases as you can help your teammates (perhaps you have better headset and can let your live teammate know where enemy is?)
Still need one more for the match.
I know whe have some reserves,but that is just in case.
Also will the match players check there TS before the match starts this in case you have some probs with it,you can sort it.
For those that plays for the first time check also you anti cheat thingy XAC!!

Had to reinstall windows this weekend as my ageing pc is failing. Downloading and reinstalling Steam and CSS etc this afternoon early evening.
I am taking my daughter back to college so may not be back in time.
If I am, I will check in on TS or IRC
92% reinstalling CSS
Now downloading Anti-cheat etc :eyebrow:
Still lacking a player for the match
CSS installed although PC lags at times :g: I'm here and playing
