What are your guys opinion on getting a mumble chat with posistional audio on the server and in UHC's?
its basically a voice chatroom, but you can only hear each other if you are near each others sound range in-game.
it adds a nice feature to UHC team games, because you have to watch out others dont actually hear you when they get close, and
you have to stand close to eachother and whisper if you want to discuss how you want to ambush an opposing team that is near.
i think it would be cool in the server since you can greet someone when you pass by each other in the nether hub for example, or
you could attack someone while furiously screaming if you are doing the death games and scare the shit out of someone
what do you guys think?

I would love a mumble or teamspeak. Skype consistantly pisses me off, I really dont understand how its so popular, other than it being free.

It may be interesting to try out during a UHC sometime, but on the regular server I don't think it would translate. Skype is just far superior for communicating on the SMP so you can communicate plan ideas or something while split up gathering resources. You can always get into a smaller call if the main chat has too many people in it.
The problem with this on UHC though is, some people don't have mic's or can't talk so they will have an advantage in finding people since nobody will be able to hear them. If we did it on UHC, mics and talking would have to be mandatory so nobody has any advantage or disadvantages. Also, private messaging would have to be disabled. I really liked the idea when Mindcrack did it, but I haven't looked into it for the reasons I just stated. Mic's have to be mandatory, or it can't work properly.

Yep. It's the only way to keep it fair and is also the reason why we haven't done it yet.

It would be nest with a mumble server, but I think skype is The best solution for UHC teams. Or can you make multiple conversations in a mumble server?

If we ever do a mumble UHC, it would have to be at least Teams of 2. A FFA with mumble would mean people could be silent the whole time while stalking people.

Back in the olden days we did use Teamspeak but everyone just preferred the accessibility of Skype.

Well I have used some team speak stuff in GW2 for guilds  But I think it would be nice to have a mumble server or a team speak one cause there are some people just asking about there is a current call. Instead when they join the server they just open mumble/teamspeak and you could talk, or if you didn't wanna talk you could not join, mute it or just be super spy. |

Anyways, since all of you like Skype so much, how about posting your skype names Mine is mwootton84, my avatar looks like I'm trying to eat my camera. Feel free to give me a call whenever you see I'm online. |
