maybe only for match servers. how many of you would like to hear 12 yr old german kids screaming at you while you are pubbing?

lol if i could scream back...

optional per client but id assume it would have to be run off the server of the game?

How much more stress would this put on servers?

When you join a server, there is an option to join a VoIP chat.

If I implement this, it will probably be disabled on clients by default - don't want to waste bandwidth on new players joining the game to hear people spouting obscenities. :P

That sounds reason able but I think that if people really want to be able to talk in game, why not just run a ventilo or teamspeak server?  Less game lag.

Do it.

-1 for now.  Really low priority in my opinion, since people can already use Ventrilo, Teamspeak, RW, etc.  I rarely see people using voice communication in other games that support it.

Stop with the reviving.  That information is pointless.

I hope one day they learn that everyone can see their votes, IF THEY EVER VOTE FOR THEM.  Putting excrement in these threads is pointless unless you vote for them in the Feature Vote page.

Lets see, its still up for vote and there might be some people that have useful information to this, etc.  So it stays open and btw Zorch, dnadna revived it after 6 months.
