Team Speak - Free Voice Chat

Fri Oct 24, 2003 9:47 am by bakedpotato

The PortaLive.com Team Speak (Free voice chat) server is now up and operating so you can play multiplayer games like Freelancer, (my personal favorite) Planet Side, Battlefield 1942, Black Hawk Down, Metal of Honor and a ton of other games and talk to other players at the same time. Nice for talking to your wingman or fellow sniper.

Team speak also makes a good way to communicate with friends and relatives, since the sound quality is excellent and theres no long distant charges and no best of all no typing.

Of coarse you will need a mic.

Or better yet a Mic Headset combo.

You will need to download the TS2 client software which is FREE
at ----> http://www.goteamspeak.com/news.php click here
After you download and install the FREE software (client side version) from Teamspeak start up the software and this is what you will need to fill in.
Click on Connection, then click on Connect.
After: *You can just copy and paste*

Label, put this in: PortaLive.com Network Server
Server address, put this in: 69.93.236.42
Server Password, put this in: portalive
Nickname: choose your own nickname. Example: URA#1

Log on as Anonymous with a user name the first time and then you
can register with the server if you want to. Registering with the server allows you to create you own private channel.

A special thanks to: AlbinoEatPod and Devon from Portalive for providing this service to the gaming community.

Amazing...finally some bright server-freakz...ever tried typing "You sneaky rat" while dumpin' mines, pulling high speed turns and all the while handling the throttle like it's a tit (handling it gently

)..YES to voice software!

Sounds like a good idea this Team Speak. But since I play through an Internet connection that is shared with my server, I would take away from the server bandwidth. Anyone know the bandwidth (roughly) Team Speak uses?

@FuzzyLightning: you have to pick the server that will last longer. How do you know? Do what you're doing but talk with the server people themselves, not yourself.

If your running the server software it takes allot of bandwidth but if your using the client side software it's not much. So it depends on if you want to run your own server.

How do I make a Freelancer clan?

With the teamspeak client in the settings you can fiddle with how much bandwidth you want to allow to the client.

It doesn't seem to use that much, as I share my internet connection with another computer and an x-box live user, and have been playing online with teamspeak, with both the other computer online and the x-box live, and never noticed any lag issues.
