I too am an Admin and Player.  We are still enjoying 1.6.  Source had an
initial surge of players but for the fun factor 1.6 is the winner.  We
had very high hopes for DOD:Source.  After playing it for a while we
have migrated back to 1.6.  While the graphics aren't as good they are
definitely good enough for us.  As you know the in game voice is
definitely better as far as quality goes.  We had hoped that source
would end the scourge of never ending hacks and exploits but from what
we have seen not much has changed.  It still comes down to an admin
spectating the player.  As far as the voice in source we have used
ventrilio and it has great quality but seems to create lag spikes and
randomly causes our mice to act erratic.  Why can't valve/steam fix the
voice problem in source?

        Compared to DoD 1.6?  The only thing that works well on
DoD 1.6 is the voice-comms.  You can hear another player just
fine, but he teleports across the map and you can have a BAR and
shoot him six rounds into the chest and he one-shots you, but by
golly you can hear him clear as day with a 50 choke.

        Sorry, but voice-comms aren't the limiting factor in
all steam games.  In fact, from my high-ping experience the voice
is of better quality than the gameplay is most of them.

        If you're having problems with comms chances are
there's some other problems in your game you'd prefer Valve
look at first.

        Just an opinion from an admin and a player.  I'd say
the voice is better than the play at the moment, at least
so far as DoD is concerned.
