Good Times With VOIP

SteelRainFilms · Post by **SteelRainFilms** » 2007-03-02 03:32

DevFile Al Basrah is an awesome server for VOIP communication. For the past 3-4 days I have been using it & it really makes the game & just the experience of playing the map itself, that much better. About 10 minutes ago in DevFile myself & Maistro an [R-PUB] were completely dominating in the Cobra, and not just flying around, we were seriously communicating, giving each other info regarding range on targets, altitudes etc... It was amazing. We took VOIP to a whole new level.

He ended up like 50-3 on the round & we had them backed into Palace by the time the round ended.

If you have a mic, use VOIP! Many dont know this about me, especially in the many games I play, but I have a stuttering problem, nothing to bad, but it prevents me from having serious conversations over VOIP, yet myself & Maistro dominated...short & sweet transmissions. So if someone with a slight speech problem can do it, so can you! It just makes the game alot better.

last few days have been great on basrah, played in an armour squad last night with juniper as the leader. we had 2 apc's and a tank and we moved together and coordinated and it was beautiful.

the insurgents began to target us, and at one point we had about 5 suicide bombers attack us in a 5 minute time period, it was so amazingly fun

Was that the round where I was flying around in a blackhawk doing insertions onto the flags? The one where we pushed them back to palace and they were like "WE WONT GIVE UP, ALLAH IS ON OUR SIDE"?

Glad you enjoyed "Juniper's Armoured Adventures in AlBashrah!"[tm]. Join my squad any day. I agree, it was poetry the way we moved our armour around that battlefield. We Only lost 1 MBT during hour half-hour camp-out at the S VCP crossroads.

Yes, Agreed - VoIP is the ONLY way you can play an armored squad - since VOIP is a *requirement* to drive an MBT. Gunner/Driver/Cupola gunner need to be in constant communcation with each other, since the M1A/MBT is the biggest bullzeye on the battlefield, (and those INSURG's all want to be martyred by nailing one of them). =)

"Jihad truck! EYES LEFT! Take him out!" =)

(Or was it EYES RIGHT? oops! -kabloom-...! Dang, there went 60 tons of turbine-powered goodness turned into a heap-o-scrap. ;( heheh)

Yep Voip makes all the difference, played with PR Hobbs and SGraham in the M1A1 last night on Al Basra with another bloke following us in the repair truck (sorry can't remember his name). All calling out targets and suggestions, it was great.

It's also fun being a high value target as you've got RPG's and bomb cars after you, it gets mental. Jihad truck got us in the end though!

Hey Juniper, didn't know you posted here. Myself, Juniper & another player in the squad (forgot his name) were operating the MBT, while our 4th had the A-10 up & was providing close air support. Pretty intense.

By the way Juniper, I have a feeling you have been in the US military, haven't you?

I don't know what your talking about Juniper is by far the worst player and definitely the worst commander ever. I mean damn when I am a squad leader I can't get that guy to coordinate his **** out of his zipper to pee let alone get anyone to attack any targets.

J/K make him commander and I will squad lead for him any day. The raping will commence.

He's so teamwork oriented it's hard to believe, thus the reason I believe he has been active in the Military at some point in his life.

its not hard to believe the guy likes to hear himself talk. If you have listened to him then you know he gets turned on by the sound of his own voice.

Who me? Heh, not really. However, I will say that working backbone Network Operations for some of the largest phone companies in the world has helped.

Ever seen the movie WarGames? You know the big operations centre with all the giant screens, all the consoles everywhere, all the high-tech real-time visibility of the entire system end-to-end? That'd be me 3rd console on the left. =)

P.S. DEDMON, I do like the sound of my own voice..... It has a smooth errie calming effect on my squad members, makes them fight with bravado and chutzpah. =) heheh.

Remember you told me to take a screen shot of the tank yesterday?

I was in a VOIP squad and were were absolute nutters, shouting ALLAH AKBAR after killing people and RPG'ing them. Very lol indeed.

Nice SS dude, Nice =)

Cravixon - Nice A10-ing for us. Youd just listen to what we were saying ("Car left", "infantry right on the street")... and next thing we knew, a SURGICAL A10 strike would come out of nowhere and nail 'em. Now THAT's some good CAS support.

Poetry, my man, poetry. =) I still remember a bombing hit about 15m to our left once near Mosque. Holy **** that was a close strike - I think you only wounded my cupola gunner slightly. hehehe. Luckily he was a medic. (Smart move to use a MEDIC kit if youre the top gunner - never thought of that)
