BF2: One problem solved, another remains

[[AK]Hylander]

I found myself turning the sound way down last night, in order to hear vent chatter. It was a fun time, for as long as I could stay in. Funniest moment for me was the long distance snipe of Faxman (from one island to the next) on the Wake map.

I had the same problem Squid and asked they guys how they could hear over the explosions, etc. I went in and turned my Ventrilo 'incoming' up to 3, and that was a pretty equal balance of not being too loud, but loud enough to hear most.

I had alot of fun last night. I was glad to see so many AK playing. I did have one crash, not sure what happened. But I'll add the heatsinks this weekend and see if it helps at all.

Maybe it was just me but Hylanders mic was way loud last night. Try turning your outbound down a notch in Vent. kthxbai

I can either not talk much and the mic up loud, or I'll turn the mic down and talk alot more - you can't have it both ways!

I've not changed my mic volume at all and nobody had said anything, but I'll request a test next time I'm on though so I can adjust it if needed.

You must have had to lob that shot like a football.

Not so much, actually. I was on the island with the artillery. You were jitterbugging around like a jackrabbit, so I was pretty suprised that I actually connected.

The best snipe is with the .50 as you can shoot pilots right out of the seat. It's a great camping game... sit by the enemies helo pad and wait for the chopper whores to jump in and you just sit back and plink them in the head. W00T!

FINALLY got my Logitech Wingman Extreme Digiatl 3D joystick configured. What a pain in the arse. Very, very sensitive. BF2 did not recognize it automatically so I had to go in and update all the controls myself. For some reason it was always pulling to the left. Went in again and configured and it seems to be working fine now. </shrug>

At least I'll be able to fly straight now.

If I'm not sniping, I keep my BF2 audio turned down a bit so that I can hear vent. Only when I'm sniping and I need to hear footsteps do I worry about the sound.
