That's pretty cool.
First, being able to hear voices over the computer is lots of fun. Second, being able to contribute is pretty cool too.
I think I am cutting myself off now & then when I talk - there's a little delay or something. But most of the time it's going good. I've got it set so I have to hit the shift key to speak, so I feel like I'm almost forcing a laugh if someone says something funny and I have to hit a key so they can hear me laugh at their joke. I'm sure I'll get over this feeling though.
Before, I was just on the listening end. Now I can make my own comments, vs. Lee making my comments for me. Heh.
Since he's sitting across from me, I don't hit the shift key to tell Lee, "I'm about to die, heal me." But for pretty much everything else, I'm trying to make sure everyone will get a chance to hear me...
I will have to get feedback if the bike is making too much noise while I'm talking though. I haven't gotten to ride much lately - yesterday I'd just gotten started and Diana needed a ride to Wal-Mart to get supplies for a poster project that was due today (yes, she knows what "procrastinate" means). Hopefully next Sunday I'll be able to ride and play and talk all at the same time!!!

Teamspeak has been a very cool way to play and catch up with everyone! Thanks to you and Lee for introducing to us and bugging me until I got it done.
Lee in particular has been able to make good use of it to provide leadership to the team and make us more effective as a group. However, it is equally as fun to have the chance to crack jokes and make comments like in the old days of face-to-face gaming!
I really felt crippled last Sunday when I had to play without being able to talk. The time that it took to type slowed down my ability to respond to in-game situations.
thx for that Rob. I recall the exhaustive line after line stuff needed for a coordinated effort back in AC.
Teamspeak is da bomb for coordinated attacks in a fast twitch game like CoH.
Likewise being able to poke fun and make comment really adds to the fun.
