The lag, occasional "im just not going to work for you today" and various other random hiccups just made it totally unreliable. People would forum up and then folks would have to drop out as EV was having a bad day for them or as per Sorin's comment it would crash just as the FC was calling targets.<br /><br />Quite a shame really as, from a militia perspective, it was a very useful tool and still relied on today by those people in the militias who don't have the luxury of paid for coms server. <br /><br />That said, voice fonts are hillarious!Eelis Kiyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08025438439100510887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482734310098777687.post-26386541163734941122010-06-17T16:52:27.167+01:002010-06-17T16:52:27.167+01:00Thanks for your comment and it's worth conside...Thanks for your comment and it's worth considering your point. I have on occasion been in a fleet - when I was green I hurled my body into the unknown as part of an alliance of pirate corporations to cut my teeth. Back then Ts & Vent were the only options available.<br /><br />Since then I have kept a low profile, I do not relish large scale engagements anyway. As I said, for my own use it suits me perfectly - and my client has remained very stable throughout.<br /><br />But I can understand why an exterior server would be preferable, especially if involved in such monumental and critical operations.Redundant bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13303142213494106849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2482734310098777687.post-32714606785675028682010-06-16T22:04:33.607+01:002010-06-16T22:04:33.607+01:00You make a good point about setup, however...
The...You make a good point about setup, however...<br /><br />The serious flaw with Eve Voice is that fact that when the client crashes (and it WILL crash) you lose all voice comms. This can be critical during fleet ops.<br /><br />It's my opinion that the time and effort needed to setup and admin a vent or ts server is paid back in spades when you can still communicate with a lost member...Sorin Markovnoreply@blogger.com
