Against the AI I would agree. Against a human you might need a few more than that, particualrly if you go for another world.

So do you guys want to just use Steam's voice chat or something else?

Svend Karlson

Hey, Bob, Undercovergeek and Huw, are you scheduling for Sunday evening Euro time? If you are, I can join too - game and chat.

Perhaps setting up a Steam Grogheads group event would help us get it started?

Huw the Poo

Sounds great Svend!  However we're limited to four Human players apparently. :(  What shall we do?

Great idea about the group event though.  I'll book it now and if the time needs to be adjusted I'll do it.

I think that is the plan, although I will be away for the weekend and not sure what time on Sunday I'll be home. If its not too late, I'll be trying to get on the game for sure.

If you are part of the GrogHeads Steam group you can schedule a event through that.


Not that I'll be playing with you guys but where do you go to turn on STEAM voice chat?

Well, Bob's invited his son to play too.

TheCommandTent, the only way I know of to start voice chat in Steam is to open a message window, then click the big arrow on the right and launch voice chat there.  I think you can then invite other people on your list to it.

The Steam voice chat works very well.  I use it all the time to chat in game.

NOTE:  You will need to be friends on Steam to invite each other to a chat group.  Also take the time to setup your voice options either push to talk key or agree that listening to each other eating potato chips is cool and use an open mic.


The Steam event scheduler is a great tool to coordinate events.  You can leave a comment to let the event planner know you are going to be playing the game.  It automatically changes the game time to your time zone, so there is no need to worry about UTC +/- X hrs stuff.    Also check your home page on the community tab and it lists out any new messages or events planned for your groups.

Huw the Poo

Cool, thanks very much for the tips Bison.

were going to need junior Bob on the steam group too then

im happy to sit the first one out and let you guys play and ill jump on for round 2 if thats ok

Bison

Or Bob could start your voice chat if he is friends with everyone.  I think that anyone once in the group voice chat can invite anyone who is on their friends list to join.  Another important think to remember to do is that you need to use the big arrow drop down menu and START voice once you accept the invite to the chat channel.

If you're sure you don't mind, mate.  That's really nice of you, thanks. :)

I'll keep you updated; I plan to coerce Svend and Bob's son to gang up on Bob. :D
