I prefer Vent; it's just seemed better to me in the time I've used it.

Oh, and hanging around on the Fianna server is cool, too, as Darc mentioned.

What is it you can say in vent/ts that you just can't use this game's PERFECT communication auto system with?

*target Calling* - ctrl+space
*path drawing* - use compass
*skill calling* - ctrl + click skill on bar or press skill button
*advanced formation* - ping compass, draw
*skill combo announcements* - same as skill calling...
*hp/sp reserves* - ctrl + click ur respective bars
*condition announcement* ctrl + click it on ur upperleft corner
*hexes on you* same thing
*announce dp/mb* same thing...
For perfect control, I almost always play my game with left-ctrl key held down about 90% of the time.

Seriously speaking *no pun*, what can speaking to your teammates via voice do that the game's ingame comm system can't?

I'm not saying it's bad at all, but I'm getting frustrated with LOTS of people who join my group, discover we don't have TS/Vent and then just say "sorry, gotta go suckers"...

*satisfying thing I noticed is that when I see them in arena/tombs/pvp, my group beats them and I simply whisper... 'see ya later sucker'*

Speaking isn't bad, but NOT having vent/TS shouldn't be a reason to insult/offend someone.

Your right ideally for the most part. However, people are having enough time as it is with just speaking into the microphone in top level PVP, what makes you think that they'd rather devote some of their attention to pressing C-C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER moves just to communicate? Most of the time, your too busy looking at other things then text. Voice communication has it's advantages and disadvantages, same with key-style communications. At this point, for the majority of gamers, Voice communication carries far more potential. No matter how fast you are, you'd rather talk into a headset rather then press Shift+Ctrl+Button Combo for Ryu Uppercut to tell your team something important, because in top level PVP, even a second means victory or defeat under certain situations. Not everyone wants to take that risk.

The only teams that don't use voice comm that are reknowned are KOR/WM. And War Machine has way too many members that shouldn't even make the cut, same with KOR because of this.
