I'll be honest.

The reason I haven't kept using the TeamSpeak is because it's just too chaotic and takes too much tinkering and cooperation to make sure I'm on a line with just the people in the same match.  I honestly don't want to be listening to anyone who isn't in my match... and on my team.  And while that is all "possible", nobody is going to take the time (or trouble) between matches to close the Hawken client, go to TS, get folks to cooperate to move themselves around to make sure it's just the people on our team (or at least match)... and then switch back to Hawken.

 

I really appreciate all the effort that's been put in by Merl and the rest to make it... but it's just not a substitute for built-in game voice chat that automatically adjusts so I only hear and talk to my team.

I do that switching around for TS when we want to, and if you're in TS and you see me not in the AFK channel, poke me. I'll switch you guys into separate channels if you read the names off to me. I can do it because admin. I'll do it, I mean it.

Exactly all of the points that StubbornPuppet makes.  Plus, some people talk too friggin much, and I don't want to listen to in-match conversations that don't pertain to the match.

The TS server is pretty unique: it is populated by some of the friendliest hawken pilots around. And considering the positive reputation that the hawken community has as a whole, that says a lot. Don't be afraid to pop in and just say hello. Maybe even ask what game mode the others are in. The majority of the conversation is about the game, so everyone should have something they would like to talk about. Sometimes, people don't say anything at all - they are there just in case something interesting starts up. Sometimes, people pop in, say hello, play for a while, and just leave when they are done, without saying anything else. The regulars there are amiable and sociable.

Like I said, no fear.

I get very aroused when I hear the voices of certain players here, and it distracts me enough to have a significant impact on my ability to play the game.

Consider yourself asked. Actually, if you find yourself in a game with any of these folk, give the TS a quick check.

I've been logging in recently (last couple of nights) and it really is pretty cool.  Even if all you do is listen in on the conversation...and you get to meet other folks.  Also, so far everyone has been exceptionally friendly and inviting, and there is no pressure to engage if you're not up for it.

If it's run-of-the-mill trash talk, I can't help you, but if you think you someone's being abusive let an admin know and we'll have some words with them.

 

Personally my words often are analogues of "fuzzing" "moron" "cease immediately" and "garfledunk."

Please send complaints or reports to hawkenteamspeak@gmail.com and we will look into it and reply accordingly.

 

To paraphrase Amid though, "video games." If it's more than that, we'd prefer to keep tabs on it and act if necessary.

Most folks, I gather, just don't want to bother with it. No hostility, maybe they just don't care or it's of little or no importance. Me? I don't "do" OUHTS because those I play with aren't interested in it. I have no personnal use for it.  :P

Something else: at any given time, all or nearly all of players in the OUHTS are in no-stars servers for me. I lolligag around in the 1500-1600 range, and am unlikely to ever go anywhere else: again, because it's not important. I'm not a competitive player, and will probably be in bots-tdm or DM, as those modes are more laid back (to me, anyway).

 

Having a note/link in the Garage was a good idea.

 

Folks in TS are 1000-1500 MMR higher than newer players so they'll never see it in chat. Nearly every last one of them aren't interested in the slightest when I spam the chat box about infos, helps, and tutorials here in this Forum, so they won't see it here, either.

 

If the Release Candidate for Hawken is sold for a fee as DLC, it might stimulate people to get off their duffs and be a little more interactive, as they'd be paying real money for it. Other than that, until/unless the community census fattens up considerably, it probably isn't going change soon.

While I respect your decision not to join us in the UOHTS, I feel like I should counter your argument against doing so, mainly because of your concept of the kind of player in the TS is inaccurate. more often than not, you can find players of all skill levels, and even players in bots matches! many of the conversations I have with these pilots doesn't pertain to the match that we're in. It's not even a requirement to be in the same match as others. you don't even have to talk. all that we as a community ask is that you consider just popping in and saying "hello". you might just stay and enjoy your visit.
