Vent Question-CoD4

[AntiThought]

I am not sure if this topic belongs here or in tech talk... sorry if this is the incorrect spot.

 

 

Since I have submitted my application I have been using the Vent server while playing in the CoD4 Hardcore Server but so far no one has been in the room I have been in. I am wondering if this is common to have so few people using Vent for CoD4 or if I am sitting in the wrong room. Following is the room I am using......

 

Marines or OpFor (depending on current team) under the CoD4 Hardcore tab.

 

Is this correct?

It is correct, there's moslty more people from ET on vent than COD4 or BC2

It could also be the time difference

But yeah, it's kinda empty on vent o.O more people need to use it more often!! =D

[deathfromabo]

Yeah the CoD4 vent channels are usually empty because it is not a very team oriented game and most people on the servers dont user our vent to begin with

That is what I was afraid of. Thanks for the replies. It is too bad though It has good Vent potential. I find myself often wanting to yell "_______ SOMEONE IS ABOUT TO SHANK YOU IN THE KIDNEY!!!!!!!!!"

ya to be honest I'm talking to people all day at work and when I can fit a game or two in I'm usually wanting to just relax and unwind by myself, plus I don't have a headset nor the desire to purchase one. so thats why I'm not on vent. what death said is true too, cod4 unless your playing competitively doesn't require much communication.

I play cod4 and ET and i am always on vent no matter what lol. But i cannot figure out how to access the vent channels and stuff when you are playing a game..

To access vent while in game do the following:

 

-Press Alt+Tab this should minimize your current application (in this case your game)

-Once that is complete open Vent normally and sign on to the F|A server (if you started Vent before opening the game skip this step)

-When inside the server just scroll down to the desired room and double click to enter that vent group

-Once in the group click on your game program either in the bottom windows desktop toolbar OR in the Task Manager (accessible by the Ctrl+Alt+Delete shortcut) you will see your game under the Applications tab of the Task Manager

-Enjoy vent while playing your favorite F|A server

 

Hope this helps Rambo. If any of these steps gives you any problems let me know.

ah actually same about of people of et and cod4 come on vent.. just different tiems like you said. most of the COD4 people hang out in the BC2 channel anyway. either that or they are in the members only area.

I have noticed the past few days we have started to have large numbers of ppl in the CoD channels. I believe we had 6 at one time tonight and a total of at least 8 throughout the night. Thanks for the good conversations those of you who have been in Vent.

Thanks for those encouraging pics Fred. I will see what I can do to encourage more server users to get involved in Vent.
