Spotted this on www.frugalsworld.com:-

quote:
"The BattleCom voice application has been available to consumers for purchase though the ShadowFactor Web site since 1997. However, effective Feb. 18, 2000, Microsoft will offer BattleCom as a free* download at www.shadowfactor.com/. The ShadowFactor Web site will continue to function as the distribution site for BattleCom until the release of the next version of DirectX, scheduled for this summer. At that time, BattleCom and the ShadowFactor Web site will be phased out in lieu of voice technology applications derived from the next version of DirectX."

I've been using RW since day 1. I've tried BC, but the sound quality is worse, imho. Some loudmouth also said that BC takes more cpu cycles and bandwidth

So, personally, I have no need to switch to BC. But let's wait and see...

The good thing is that all would atleast have BC...

I had the demo but never got chance to try it. Being able to use different channels and hot-swap between them sounds useful. It's difficult when everyone's trying to speak at the same time in RW.
