FINALLY!

This is an open beta. Lots of new shiny things. Server ops, get a jump on this.

For those that think Vent is \"better\".. whatever, please save it for another thread. I'm just getting the work out.

But Vent hasn't got a Linux client :P

Yet, and it apparently works in Wine.

Only sort-of.

1. You can't use a PTT button, as it can't catch keystrokes when it's not in focus
2. It always gave me weird mic-level issues when I plugged my mic in. It would take a few minutes of fiddling with volume levels, etc, to get the thing to properly cut in and out each time I wanted to use my mic.
3. The "customizable volumes" feature doesn't work

So, for a linux user, vent through wine is no better than teamspeak, plus it's got annoyances. Teamspeak gets my vote, for having a linux-native client.

So many games are incompatible with Linux that I've never before heard anyone prefer TS over Vent for that reason.

The German Descent community ( http://www.descentforum.de/forum ) prefers TS because of crossplatform support.
