I think we should have an ingame interface that allows us to switch radio channels at will.

I think a web interface is more realistic at this point, which you could access via xfire ingame web browser

But a web interface can't directly interact with Mumble, as far as I know (unless changes were made to the program itself to get and recognize that input, which is possible but might be impractical). If it can, then yes, that would be good.

Would xfire in game browser be of any use?
On the other hand, its very CPU heavy. I suppose any in game browser addition would be CPU heavy.

That separate squad talk would be very useful indeed. Use numpad for each SL (as there is max 9 squads), and there is a default button to talk to the CO.
The traffic on the SL channel is over the top as people just talk about everything they see and do.

ive heard complaints about the interface and the way mumble looks. like for some its hard to find a channel.
i would suggest setting it up like TS3 does it, with like a small box in front of every channel
and more space between the vertical lines

Different colours and/or size for channels, sub channels and users would be sweet. Or something along those lines.

I'm all for having some kind of whisper function that allows specific squads to ONLY talk to each other.
It would make calling in CAS or Armor Support a DREAM. Plus the SqdLdr channel gets really chaotic at times with people calling in requests over each other.
1-Inf
2-Light/Personel Carrier Armor
3-Heavy Armor
4-Helicopter Trans
5-Helicopter Scout (?)
6-Helicopter CAS
7-Jet Fighter
8-Jet Bomber

Id like to see each keypad (1-9) talk directly to the respective squad ('1' , squad one. '2' squad two) and keypad enter force center. (for people in squad leader channel only)

Jonny I'll check tonight but I am sure when I press my numpad keys it does not select a weapon, I have tried before, but will confirm soon. I am on a portable too, if you deselect the number function or is it because I have a French keyboard on mine?
Plus if we could combine YTmans and Gazz's concept to have for example CAS always squad 1, armour 2 etc. etc. could be useful if we can sort out the numpad story.

Also fairly sure numpad doesn't do anything: think PRT officers use it for TS keybinds.

Jonny for the love of god have you ever tried using numpad numbers as whisper ptts in any voip program. because i, and pretty much everyone besides me, have used them always and i have my number buttons under the f buttons binded to weapons and if i press any of the numpad numbers my weapons won't change ingame. Atleast TS2, TS3 and mumble recognise numpad keys and the number keys above your keyboard differently. As a bit of a advise you might want to check the facts before you start banging your head to a wall about something.

I just tested it by binding my movement keys to the numpad and it worked fine.
Battlefield definitely distinguish between the normal keys and the numpad keys.
