They have it set were you need permissions to join the BC2 channels. i reformatted yesterday and now i cannot join as well

[tigger]

I just put ts in and i can join but it puts me in the lobby is all.

[TRIPTEX_CAN]

We were in the TS3 server last night when Johnny5 joined. The permissions are being worked out still but if you want to communicate with us just stay in the lobby, if someone is in the channel you should get moved manually within a minute or 2. Without the correct password you might not see anyone in server but I'm not totally sure.

[digibucc]

yeah i've even had some bad luck seeing people in the server. i've had to move to the channel once or twice for it to work. i tried to change you to a member, but it just flashes error and won't let me. up to you rhino...

lol I randomly moved you from the lobby last night to the game chat because i know for a fact that you normally don't hang out in the lobby.

I didn't have my headset on and wasn't really paying attention to TS...just figured like some others, you were stuck there. Plus I remember you telling us that you were going to reformat. Exodus had the same problem too. So you're welcome!

I'm just sick of all the bloody snipers,sometimes get killed twice on the trot as i spawn,retards

im reinstalling BC2 as we speak. hopfully with the format and the new update i can play this game without my bc2 thinking some of my keys are still press after i release them.

Yes it is especially if you have a ton of games that save everything to the hard drive.
Been there done that a hundred times.

I don't know if any of you have tried out this VOIP solution. It's called Mumble/Murmur. It is a very light weight package, has a very small foot print, and sounds excellent.

http://mumble.sourceforge.net/

I have been running the murmur server for several weeks and it is excellent.

I killed OnBoard as he spawned on his squadmate last nigh. One shot from the M95 with Magnumbullets.... I don't think he even had time for his crosshair to appear on screen.

I dont really install alot of games unless im into them at that moment in time. at the most i might have 3 games installed. the worst part of the format is getting all of my programs back to working condition and making sure the OS is running right and the drivers are perfect.

ALSO! i want to thank the guys for moving me into the proper channels on TS. i didnt realize that a format would loose my permissions in the TS server. i would have backed up that folder if i would have known

yeah i install all games onto a separate harddrive, and keep a backup of all current drivers ready. i reinstall about once every month or so, and i can do a full reinstall within about 40 minutes. usb thumbdrive->ssd , 15minutes windows install, the rest for copying stuff back.

as for TS , i think it is more of a unique ID assigned to you and your OS install. i don't think it is something you can just copy out. may be wrong though.

same here but reinstalling at least once a month is a little bit too much to my standards.

I usually give it at least 2-6 months for it to get completely trashed & slow as hell before I say its time for a good reinstall.

I should probably just create a basic image using Norton Ghost or something, but Id still need to reinstall my games n what not & I dont have enough space to do a complete system back up from scratch Id probably have to dedicated at least 1 TB to back up the whole system with all my games n junk

[Easy Rhino]

on teamspeak server mods can not edit client groups. i fixed the issue.

[Black Haru]

If you see me in the lobby move me please (tonight).
don't know how much I'll be on.

I hate snipers too. even the ones on my team. really its called recon because your supposed to do Reconnaissance... whoever was in my squad last night did a fantastic job of spotting, but most just take potshots (which they mostly miss) at random players.

"Q" mashing. we need more of it. /end.rant

I do similar, but not with games, since I mod a lot of my games sometimes those get mucky too, so my 2nd drive holds all my movies, music, pictures, or anything else thats random. And when I sweep the OS, I take the games with it and start with a fresh install of everything, takes a bit longer, but probably the way I will keep it.

yeah i wish. i am on it 12 or more hours every single day though. work and play. with that much use it gets trashed and issues arise so often, that a lot of times it could have used a reinstall sooner.

@epic - not last night, but one or two ago i was in a few games with you. I'm regularly on the VA server, but now that we've got another one going for the other modes, i'll be there as well

yeah same idea though. I actually have a server running in the back room with 2tbs of storage. separate hdds hold: movies, music/apps, work documents (source files, renders, templates, fonts, etc) and then one for temporary storage. Also some usb drives as I have to hold backups of not just my stuff, but the 6 employees I am the IT guy for. bosses get double redundant, just in case

then on my actual machine, i have a 600gb for games, full. i just leave them installed because at any given moment i may want to play that 15gb copy of empire total war, even though it's been two months. storage is so cheap there is nothing to it. I just wish i could set up adobe suite on a separate hardrive, as that's the only thing thing that ever knocks me past the 40 minutes.

Some stuff needs to still be reinstalled and re-patched so there are proper registry entries too. Though keeping my games on a second drive still definitely saves some time. Nothing as is as quick and easy as my Steam games though of course.

digi,

the server you got was down for me most of the night...i wasn't able to get on till like 11pm pst. i was on there then left becasue no one was joining...after that it was grey for hours. regardless, i have both the NY and VA servers favorited!

woot for 2 TPU US servers and a UK server!

Unfortunately hardly anyone plays on the UK server (from what ive seen so far) & I usually end up leaving the Virginia server & joining a more packed out server where I know getting up to 5000-7000 points in 1 game is easy as hell.

thanks for letting me know, it was full within an hour of creation, but died down later at night. didn't realize it was actually down, i'll look into that

idk maybe it's the time you are playing, i find the VA server totally full, often. 3 times in the last three days i have had to add myself or others to the reserved list just to get in game.

If I type in [TPU] will they all pop up

yes

well for the beginning it's going to be screwing around and testing the different modes. i've played 40 hours of conquest and 1 hr of everything else combined... I only care that TPU players want to join, so whatever we want to play is what it will be at... i have no preference other than "not conquest"

there is no way to rotate modes though, so one has to be chosen in the end.

[boise49ers]

If I type in [TPU] will they all pop up ? I think I only have the Virginia Server on favorites, or should I say favourites ? Guess they are the same thing. So I think I missed out on the Team Speak part of the forum. Do we need to add something to hook into TPU TS ? Sorry I'm at work so I don't have the game here to monkey with. Thanks !

Huh, there's a deathmatch mode?
