I'm back! I know its been a few days since my last post on GRO and I promised I would be doin a beta key giveaway and I will do it this time.
I want to go over a few things first with the game since the new update came out on June 26th. Officially at this point there has not been a post specifically stating what has changed, but unofficially I can tell you server lag has become much better for me as well as MatchMaking seems to have improved. Since Tuesday's patch I have noticed that almost all the matches have started with a full set of players on both sides, which is a great improvment. Player levels seems to be better in balance most of the time, even though I may find myself the only high level on my team, usually I will see a higher level or 2 on the other team no for balance. There is still romm for a lot more improvement here, but for now the update seems to be making a difference in my opinion.

Let's talk VoiceComms:
In my last article I did not talk about voice communications at all, as I did not have much time to evaluate it. After a week of using it I am very happy with the improvement and it by far is better than most other in game VoIP's I have seen. In prior releases we had a lot of problems with the system not alwyas working, having no clue who is actually talking or where that player was on the map. Now there are a few visual enhancements in this release which tells us who on our team in talking and can find them easier in the game as you will see in the video I am posting below.
The only setback I have noted is new players sometimes have their personal voice servers hotkey set the same as the in game one, and it can get annoying listening to personal onesided conversations XD. With that said I usually remind them to fix that quickly as it is easy to re-bind your hotkey.
Below is a video taken last night which clearly shows the VoIP in play as well as my final push to level 30 on my Recon class soldier. Enjoy the video, like comment and subscribe if you choose as well.
