Questions From New Guy
Fri, 2005-06-24 11:57 — Onekick
Love Joint Ops. Got real tired of getting shoot at by my own team members when they got bored or whatever. I like the team atmosphere I found in the 4Q games.
My questions: Why do I keep seeing TK will be booted & don’t shoot from vehicles it kills occupants. And I have down loaded and set up Team Speak, now how do I make it work during gaming?
Thanks for your help,

Ok,
Glad you found us. It's going to be weird because I actually set up the Voodoo site before I joined 4Q and started runnign their new stuffs. So... that means we actually have two forums that are sort of for Joint Ops.
But this is good, and now you've seen what else we do around here at Voodoo!
So to answer your questions:
1) The server will auto-boot you if you kill 3 teammates (or the same one 3 times, etc.)
2) Don't shoot from vehicles: the game has a bug where bullets shot from moving vehicles start behind the vehicle, thus traveling through it and its passengers. And yes, they do damage. So, if you shoot from a moving vehicle you may kill yourself or the driver, etc. Don't do that.
3) If you run team speak and get connected, then when other people join you can talk to them. I have my CAPS LOCK key mapped as my activator, because it doesn't conflict with any JO keys. Some people like to use voice-activation to free up their hands. Just talk (if voice activated) or press the PTT button (its in settings under Push To Talk) and start talking. If someone is there they will probably respond. The server spends a lot of time idle, but when there are several of us on it is great because we can coordinate our attacks and keep shooting.
Hope that helps and welcome to VoodooHQ
