Bruceov Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 That the cmac chat server is no more. It will not be simple to play live battles without chat As far as I'm concerned there is no point in buying this game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 If the chat is not fixed, I'm not going to drink beer anymore! :mad: And I'm also going to start cutting myself! :mad: :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pak40 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Just use an IM or some voice chat program. Besides, most will be playing by email. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtweasle Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 That would be a poor bet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve and BFC have publicly stated that the majority of CM play is done solo. Either way, I think Bruce needs to get over it. There is an opponent finder forum which still seems to work, as well as chat over at The Proving Grounds dedicated to Combat Mission. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ike Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Why not find a TeamSpeak or Ventrilo host and set up a server? Clanservers if I recall rightly, has phpBB forums, TS and Vent servers all set up for fairly cheap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruceov Posted October 15, 2006 Author Share Posted October 15, 2006 The chat enabled one to obtain games live without knowings an ip number. Without it there is no easy way to get a game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT Fox Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Teamspeak client and server are free to download last time I checked, and easy to set up. Also Skype is free last time I checked. If you have a PC and the internet you can chat, for free. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walpurgis nacht Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Since Bruce started it . . . . Question, does the Proving Grounds chat actually work? Says Java is required but I can't get it to work with either Java or mIRC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergei Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Java. I just go to http://www.the-proving-grounds.com/chat and the Webmaster chat software loads after a prompt asking if I trust the supplier. I'm also using the latest Java. I'm not sure what I'm doing right... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
