Yeah. Team Speak is good, but needs to be installed on the server where the game is being hosted i think. I've used it a few times but its never really helped because everyone was just slagging each other off on it lol.

Actually, you can. You just have to open the port on your router.

I'd do it, but my bandwidth is a bit unreliable, due to the fact my flatmate uses peer to peer programs

That's cool with me. Whatever works.

Hehe, it was me that posted that in the counterstrike thread. Shame it's not out yet though.

Oh, and I'll probably be on the SO-HELL server tonight, if anyone is up for a game.

Just been using X-Fire witha friend and it's pretty good like, also has voice chat built in. Can some others off UGS install it and then look for me quicks1lva so I can see if the group chat works.

you can also have crossfire running in-game:

If you have Xfire In-Game enabled, any messages you receive will come straight into your game - no more Alt-Tab to chat. You can enable it on from the Tools -> Options menu in your Xfire client. You can also change the key binding that will bring up Xfire In-Game when playing.

cheers
