We're all just going to use Teamspeak 3 or Mumble. |

In-game voice is heavily used in TF2 which is a free to play FPS. You have to remember that everyone here has a lot of experience with outfits and as such is used to running a separate voice application. Younger and newer players aren't quite as jaded as us and as such will probably make great use of the built in voice.

It'll become one of those forgotten hidden features, that will be brought up in conversation every so often; years into the game. I just do not want to see a lot of development on in-game voice, when there's so many other better off alternatives. Last edited by xSquirtle; 2011-12-14 at 06:16 PM. |

In the past, I used to think it would be awesome play a game with its own voice hosting system but they never worked back then. Now that I've used ventrilo and teamspeak for over a decade now......I can't help but wonder where my luster for a good in-game voice host went.

My concern is that when you alt-tab or switch characters you lose all voice contact with your friends.
Any way to get around it using an in-game solution? Or would it have to be an external voice program solution at those points? I also foresee problems when your outfit wants to switch empires for a night, and having lots of communication problems getting everyone set up on the new faction. |

I think a great voice chat is exactly what planetside needs. Push to talk. If they do a local voice chat that will up the gameplay a ton! You could even mix it in with your other voice chat programs. Just keybinds, would let you organize greenies! Organized GREENIES! DOMMA GAWD!
At the very least get the local chat in. If anything else! |

I cant imagine a proper outfit not having dedicated voice though.
most of the PS outfits or any outfit or clans for PS2 wont be new, they willbe based from existing communities, perhaps some new ones will popup, but they will be built from an existing core or players. 3rd party voice and forums are prime methods of communicating for a guild and i would imagine most guilds still have groups of players playing together using vent or something to communicate or simply socialise while playing other games. my guild uses it when playing skyrim FFS. |

well my outfit is prolly gonna use TS3 but i can see the advantages to using the in-game voip. i could see using the prox voip if i fall upon some allies away from my outfit and have a quick and easy way to communicate with them or use to yell out in battle orders/warnings to those around me not in my group. the vehicle voip would be useful to not clog your group's voip and send info to who needs to know.
