Cheers Tom, changed port on my router and seems to be speeding up now.

What port did you forward?

[Steven W]

What port did you forward?

I have two rj45 cables from two 360's going into two ports on my router. I removed the one I wasn't using and then swapped the active Xbox 360 cable to that one, then it worked.

Meet up 6.45pm-7pm?

[Steven W]

Looks like we can only have a maximum party size of 8 though, so may not get everyone in one room.

[Tarffie]

BTB Training is has a max. party size of 12.

[random rik]

I cant see a BTB

[Veles]

Nor me

[Tarffie]

Oh, it not available yet. I was just going off the guide, not actually played the game. Missed the part that said they were adding various bits over the three weeks as it went along.

[Blademrk]

I'll be on for a little bit, but then I've got to try and get some work done on a 130 page CRF design I need done for work on Monday

[Veles]

Sounds fun 8/

[Blademrk]

Had a laugh playing, although time shot on and it was 9pm before I knew it (I played longer than I should have really).

I'm going to have to get back to work now 8(

[Veles]

Back from me BBQ. Anyone still around for some halo?

[Steven W]

Good games chaps. I'll be on over the weekend late on.

I think it's brilliant!

[Tarffie]

I'd be up for some with you lot if you talk. All the games I've been in barely anyone talks, and it calls itself a Halo game ¬_¬

[Blademrk]

The problem with talking in Halo is in most of the team based game types you have to press a direction on the D-pad to open the comms channel. Half the time when I'm talking, no-one can hear me because I've not pressed the button.

Strangely, sometimes I can hear voices coming from the speakers instead of the headset (I've got the option set to both in the 360 settings).

[random rik]

If you are close to the player then you can just talk and the voice will come out of the speakers.
