    Being able to talk while dead seems kind of cheesy.

    'OMG A SPY' as you look through a variety of cameras or something.

    its been covered before

    using tourney settings you can only see what your teammates see in their first person view while dead

    ie, all you can say is oh fuck a spy stabbed me

    which, i may add, observant team mates probably already know if the spy is nearby

    Yeah i just caught up with the thread and saw that, but it still seems lame to me. Calling out where your killer's location immediately 'n stuff like that. Not arguing to disallow it or anything, just stating an opinion.

    wow, i can't believe there's controversy over talking while dead.

    ventrilo is used in standard competitive play. always. not "sometimes".

    if a spy is worried about a "stealthy" take down, they should probably complain about the message up in the top right corner that shows they killed a player; gosh, that's a dead giveaway. i think it should probably be taken out of the game. :rotate:

    SERVER INFO

    server we will be using:

    8.12.64.235:27016

    pass is: pac09

    SourceTV IP:

    8.12.64.235:27021

    if SourceTV doesn't work, i've spoken to job (briefly) about him broadcasting it again, so we'll see how it goes.

    in fact, i need some people to stress test the server/SourceTV. if you're not busy, could anybody available connect to my SourceTV?

    Yeah, we're gonna be using Vent. If any team doesn't, they'll be at a disadvantage, and fuck that. Even if you don't have a mic, download it so you can hear your teammates.

    Mandalore's Team...we should practice today before the match if we can

    I'd be up for that. An hour and a half before the match is when I'll probably be around.

    We have a match today?
    I should try to play earlier than a half hour before it to see if my temp desk will be ok.
    With the things I need to get done before I can play, I'm not promising anything other than to be 5 mins early.

    here's a hint: if you guys are walking out of a corridor, make sure you send the medic(s) out first. really, it's your safest bet. this should make sense later.

    I'm still waiting for duld to change smug.gif to something more interesting without telling you.

    using vent is more about leveling the playing field. sure you can ghost, but its better than one team doing it and one team not.

    also erich should stop playing NT because he is bad at the game
    if you don't use vent, that's your fault...ventrilo is used in pretty much all online match play.

    sourcetv can be mildly retarded

    there shouldn't be a pass, but don't try connecting via the server browser.

    do a connect (sourcetv ip) in the console

    otherwise i think you direct connect to the server.

    the ip is 8.12.64.235:27021. not 27016.

    sourcetv is working!

    8.12.64.235:27021

    i just connected to it recently.

    so do i just connect to this like a regular server? Ima play some Neotokyo for a bit, then ill jump on and have a look.

    Hopefully i get a similar ping to what i get on jobs, and not the ~170-200 i get on Jons D:

    No, you connect from the console, you open it, type connect 8.12.64.235:27021 that's how you do it.

    So I connected to the SourceTV thing and I got automatically assigned to spectator, so I guess it's working

    Didn't try to manually join a team or anything though

    When exactly is this tourney happening?

    It's the standard, I think.

    To prevent someone from giving info to someone currently playing.
