I keep feeling that something is missing from BF3's teamplay experience
and thinking about it over the last few days, I have narrowed it down to Team comms.
Whilst TS3 channel is great for general chat, I think it is holding us back regarding teamplay.
I am reluctant to use comms to give squad orders or tactics because we are all in the same channel,
I'm sure some of you will feel the same way.
I mentioned it to NF and others last night, and a TS3 overlay was mentioned that puts you in the correct squad/team channel yet also allows you to speak to the whole channel via a 2nd comms key.
I thought I'd start an admin thread to see if anyone else felt the same, and if the overlay is practicable.
Ill jump on that.... I cant get sneaky with the enemy listening in. :D
I'd like to give this overlay idea a chance. The only problem would be if the auto balancing kicks in. Not sure we can disable this at the moment.

This looks really good.
Read through their forum on this, does look good and will help improve the game and tactics on our server.
I was just gonna suggest renaming the channels to RU and US and adding a COOP channel or something, but this sync thing looks awesome! Can we get that on our servers?
I was going to bump this thread, but Varg saved me the trouble...
any news on this?
Got the beta.. I'll start working on it pronto.

Great!:D
We split teams in TS the other night and it was great; The only one who had probs was Duvel,
he couldn't alt-tab to switch TS channel when he got auto team-swapped because it makes his game crash.
This thingummy would solve his prob too :D
I've had to remove the plugin from the TS3 server as we had the issue with guests being able to kick again. The plugin is the only thing with Admin powers with the ability to change the group permissions (other than the actual admins). I'm not sure the plugin was causing the issue but it has been removed until we can prove otherwise.
