well, I have set up different subchannels for every squad ( USMC alpha, bravo, etc.., ). Just join the channel for the team/squad you play on. This is obviously not as good as VoIP, but better than nothing until VoIP is fixed.

we have 64 slots, btw.

In my opinion, the TS2 -Server is not that oportunity to play with war-rules or playing serious strategies.
It's more the oportunity to get to know the people you often play with and have some fun with when your are playing.

Teamwork is possible too, but the channelswitching shouldn't be seen too strict and conservative since you don't have a admin that is watching the teamspeakwindow for the whole time.

FairPlay is a must, but since not many people are connecting to the ts2-server it's unlogic anyways to tell people to join the correct squad.

I tried to get people on the ts2-server several times. i saw negerkungen, talked to him and "under-fire" (=b.schuss), saw armageddon in it, but most of the time people argue about it whether it would be possible to cheat or don't want to take time to join the server. since nobody frequently connects to the channel it's not possible to cheat.

i asked you fon| guys before but you didn't want to join me, expecting me not wanting to hear you talk.
after all, the game is about fun and that fun gets multiplied by talking and playing to/with the other guys that are on the server. i don't know exactly how many times gaming with ts2 was so much more fun even with people on  the other side of the time. i had so often "piss" in my eyes because i laughed my ass of. Either you should too.

After all, fair play is necessary in the game as on the server.
It's about the moral courage whether people cheat or not.
IF the server gets too full, what i would like to see some day, people would have to switch in the subchannels.

btw, we have unlimited squads for the whole server.

EDIT: Finally i got to meet Mr Echo and talked to him.

Yeah right, I remember about this. You know, dancer, it seems a little difficult for me to join the BF2s or your TS2, although I want to talk to you guys of course, because my clanmates are on our server and demand I´m there to talk some bullshit with them. Dont get me wrong, altough I think you know what I´m talking about. We, the fon|-clan are looking forward to connect soon... Get ready for a lot of stupid phrases and stuff

das mit dem "Du willst nich hören was wir laabern" war so gemeint, dass wir extrem viel Müll brabbeln, da wir alle aus einem "Dorf" kommen bzw. einige von uns sich ziemlich aufregen während der Zockerei. Wir wollten Dir bzw. dem Rest der BF2s nicht auf die Eier gehn oder so (man weis ja nie wer auf der anderen Seite sitzt und wie der zu sowas steht).

Doesn't BF2S have a TS server (there's a thread about it in the etc subforum)?

well, we have two separate TS servers, one based in the US, intended mainly for ( but not necessarily limited to ) players on the US ranked server or the Gibson, the other based in EU, for players who play on the EU ranked server.

The EU TS server was sponsored by our good friends from the bmb clan, who were gracious enough to share their bandwith with us.

Still, I do intent to get VoIP working on the EU server, because that is a little more convenient with regard to squad management.

Hey guys, whats up with the teamspeak server? It has been down since yesterday.

Edit: Untill the bmb server is up again, here's the ip of my Teamspeak2 Server 81.71.121.47:8767 no password.

I ll be the guy called admin. My server is up 24 hours a day for the next couple of days untill the bmb server is back online.

The Server is back up, so feel free to join.
But i don't have a clue why it was down since i didn't experience it anyway.

Cool! no need for my ts server anymore.

Could you ask your clan why it was offline please?

I asked, and the response was: "The provider had a problem, which probably was solved pretty quickly"
So, my clan and I don't really know why it happend, but this happend for the second time in a year now.

Thanks for asking so its nothing to worry about really.

Update on VoIP:

On saturday, I finally received an answer from our GSP about the VoIP not working. Their advice was to change the port for VoIP. Unfortunately, they didn't tell me which port to use...

Since I am not an VoIP expert, I replied very politely and asked which port they'd suggest we should use instead of the one specified in BF2CC. We'll see what they say. But at least they are answering now...

yeah, I'll try that. Problem is, it would be better to let people know the IP before they connect to the server. Maybe a new banner for the graphic in the server browser ?

I'll put it up when I get home from the office this afternoon.
