I don't remember it being quite as bad as you're describing - there were a couple of people with noisy microphones that we had to deal with, but otherwise it worked fairly well.



WOPSE! I did not mean for it to come across as a really bad thing, I just wanted to point out a case of which unmuted mics can be a problem.

P.S. One thing I like about voice chat is it convase emotions a lot better Smile

I play a variety of online games and also use TeamSpeak. If you set your mic to toggle, when you turn it on, it's always on. So when you're not talking it is picking up all the background noise in your home/room. This becomes a major problem if you have a noisy house. Also when you activate your mic it uses bandwidth to process the sound. So if everyone was running around with their mics on it would create extra drag on the server that isn't needed and would result in a reduction of performance and a reduction of the experience that everyone else is having. Keeping the system as a push-to-talk is the best. Also, if you have a bunch of people talking at once it's very difficult to hear each other.

Before being the grammar teacher, be certain to check the spelling of certain words. Laughing And I didn't use "also" nearly as much as "it". Thankfully there aren't any Knights Who Say Ni around here, lest they be stricken deaf (or rather blind) by the reading of it. So it is probably a good thing that I didn't use it in a longer paragraph as it might cause a great crashing of the server this is being hosted on. It's posts like this that cause destruction.

Ni!
