The PlanetSide team is always talking about speeding up gameplay by doing this and that. Heck, they even took out prone! to speed the game up. But not providing(not even a basic program) voice chat software and on top of that they dont support it. How is typing many word commands using a key board going to speed anything up? Even if you managed to shortin the commands to a kind of "commander slang" they still need the freedom to make commands on the fly. I think they should seriously consider voice chatting for the primary or at least secondary was of chatting in a squad. I want to hear you comments and thoughts on this.

We definitely have a voice bind system in our game. If you're used to the T2 one, then you'll have no problems whatsoever with this one.
As far as in-game voice goes...I have to please the Fifth on that one for the moment...but we're looking into some stuff now. No promises yet...but we're looking into it.
