Hello all,

For my Psychology A2 coursework I am conducting a study into gaming, and I need some volunteers to take part.

You will be required to play either CS 1.6, CSS, or the Sims (depending upon which one you own/play the most) for an hour whilst on a ventrilo server with your fellow players. We will need approximately 10 people for both CS and the Sims. Following the game play you will be asked to fill out a small questionaire.

Whos interested?

Sign me up for the CSS one, it's not like I've got anything better to do with my time.

Depends on the timing of it. CS 1.6 or CSS is fine.

If I can use it then anyone can use it. I used to use it for WoW before my guild collapsed.

Oh do you have to pay for ventrillo? If so how much?

Ventrilo is a voice comm program used primarily for gaming clans and guilds.
It's pretty much the same thing (although better, imo) as Teamspeak.

Free from http://www.ventrilo.com/ depending on the version chris wants to run on his vent server.

Ok cool. Now all I need is a mic!

CHEEEEEEESE!
14-06-2007, 06:40 PM
I have The Sims 2 and all expansion packs, so I would happily help out!

Only problem is that my mic is not working fully atm, will I need it that much?

Vent is free, and we will use my WoW guilds vent server.

The only reason we would like you to use vent is to listen to your reactions throughout the game play. Its not vital, but helpful.

Oh then I'm in for the sims 2 (without a microphone)

I would waaay prefer to be playing 1.6, but i can play source for an hour (i think) if need be.
Almost definitely a big yes if it is after the 25th of June (either 1.6 or source), probably yes if before that as well.

Oh yeah, when will this be? I have no computer access until the 11th July. Also, what exactly do we do?

Well I have to conduct it before the end of term. So pretty soon I would have thought. Next couple of weeks I would guess.

Hope that helps.

I get my computer back in three weeks. Untill then I'm relying on my psp for internet. I have the psp version of the sims as well if that helps? Hmmm.

I can do the Sims2,but I need to know,is it necceserary I have this "Vent" thing?

Explosivo
14-06-2007, 08:22 PM
Yeah I was worried about this with the Sims 2 Players. Im guessing that in all honesty it wouldnt be nessisary, maybe a chat client such as xfire, or IRC might work better.

CSS guys however, I know there will some sort of action on Vent so we might as well.

Ah yes msn would be much easier for me too. I am in computer negotiations with my parents now so I'll let you know the result.

I'm guessing having "push-to-talk" on would be a bit useless for that. What should I have it set to?

I'll be up for CS 1.6 (once I've reinstalled it) and CSS (again the same although I may have lost it so don't hold me to that one).

I'll download ventrillo.

As long as it's before the 28th June I should be good to go :)

I can play sims 2 for an hour but you'll have to explain the rest of what you want to me in more detail. I'm quite computer illiterate
