Its honestly not as bad as people make it out to be. The UI is pretty fucking garbage, ill agree with that, but the rest is alright? I mean, leagues better than vent/mumble.

>Discord is nsa shit.
Pretty sure this was cleared in the recent edit of the privacy policy, not 100% on that though.

Unless something better comes up (extremely unlikely) ill keep on shilling Discord. Free servers, customize how you like, unlimited people. Plus keeps on getting based features requested by the community.

How is the ui better than vent or mumble honestly? The ui is complete shit. Dont even know how to join rooms.

Skype is completely fine except when it comes to more than 3 people and that it requires a host to piggyback off of. I was content with skype for a good while but playing dota can be a pain. Especially if the host gets connection problems. Quality suffers or at worst stops/drops.

This.

Teamspeak can be thrown on any garbage server from 2002 and it still sounds fucking a-perfect.

Discord on the other hand sounds even with a high quality mic like shit. And only god knows what they are doing on those servers they host.

I mean, you couldn't even test your voice, how it sounds or anything. That's like the most basic feature in any voice program.

You join rooms by clicking on the link that you were given to join the room.
If you mean you were already invited, the circle that represents that room, pretty easy.
You bypass having to have a password, IP, and port.

"did you type the password wrong?"
"do you have the right IP?"
"check the port"
"typed the password as his username, what a newfag."

So the only real thing you can say bad about discord is the choice of humor they use while the thing boots up? It's easily the best functioning of all those options and has by far the better features.

Mumble would be good, if...

I host my own mumble server for friends and I can set the ludicrous bitrate and smallest lag setting since we all live nearby. Never seen better voice quality anywhere. Can I do the same with discord?
>>
>>332736789
Whatever floats your boat, man. It's got better everything than mumble, and has the options you wish mumble had, but it's your call.
>>
>>332736814
can't everyone on mumble set their own bitrate?
>>
>>332736642

So the answer is use ts.
>>
>>332736814
up to 96kbps per channel adjustable within the server. Normal set at 64kbps, lowest it can be set is 8kbps.
>>
>>332736814
No, but your voice quality will still be pretty great, and you'll all have better individual options you can use.

I use discord to talk to people in europe and still get better voice quality than I got from using mumble to talk to them like I used to.
>>
>>332736875
Yes, you can but It won't go higher than the server setting I suppose.

I just use whatever other people are using. Living the idort life.

Someone want to give me a break down of them? I was under the impression mumble > vent > teamspeak (though that might have been ts1?).
My understanding has basically been, mumble = linux, vent = windows, ts = mac.
>>
>>332737492

Youve been out of the loop.

Ts is slightly better than mumble. Vent isnt used widely anymore, at least not in my circle of online people i talk to. Skype is 'okay' and only acceptable for camming services. Discord is the new kid on the block with it being 'free' being its major selling point.

Theres a bunch of other shit i havent touched on like raidcall, google's shit and whatever else.

Nope. Raidcall took down its English support and went full Russian. It was a shame too, we really liked Raidcall for what it was, but turns out it was for the better - switched to Discord as it was the new shit around and everyone else was liking it - so I shilled it to the rest of my group.

People are so fucking against change its hideous, most of my friends were still wanting to use Raidcall before mentioning Discord. You don't even need to download the client to use it either, its browser based as well. Literally just laziness at that point.

Anyway, they all like Discord in the end and won't use anything else unless the occasion calls for it (raid leader has TS, another group of friends still riding mumble shit and wont change ever).

The only thing I'll give discord credit for is that it's retard friendly.

Group wouldn't switch to mumble from skype cause IPs are scary to them and mic set up is rocket science.


It's a decent middle ground I guess but it's in-game overlay and audio quality fucking sucks. (it's better then skype at least)

>>332742658
Why? It pisses me off that I have to 4 different programs installed because the gaming community can't make up their mind.
