Teamspeak ?

Are there any general teamspeak servers for VO ?

Don't think so, some people tried it, running a server for a while, but no one showed up.

sounds like it would be a guild ran thing

Well, I showed up. However, many of the folks here don't want their "alternate characters" to become known, so they won't talk over Teamspeak on any of their "alts."

Which is sad, really. Teamspeak is a great way to coordinate stuff.

i always hated teamspeak. it was way too creepy to hear the people talking.
especially this one time when i wasnt expecting someone to be talking on my computer. i thought it was possesed! my god was it scary!

I've used teamspeak frequently in the past, usually on headphones, so anyone in the room can only hear my side of the conversation.
A friend of mine insists the voices are in my head and theres not really anyone else there.
Explains a lot really

I played

Amryops
Wolfenstien (series)
Janes WW2 Fighter

and many other games running a secondary voice chat program
either

Roger Wilco
Teamspeak
Ventilo

Most of them have been using Teamspeak for the crossplatform of
Win/Lin i think the Mac ver is out (beta) or very soon to come.

I think it would work well for multiperson vonvoy escort missions
and CtC and possibly queen hunting...

thats my thought

Agree completely.
OK, who wants to set up a teamspeak server? It's gotta be Mac, PC, and linux compatible.

i'll pass thank you.

i have enough lag already, i need not add the burdon of voice on my cable link.

I've hosted TeamSpeak servers several times over the years. Nobody uses them for particularly long.

That's true, RL. Perhaps when VO has more players there will be a more permanent interest.
