I noticed that this had been discussed for SC2 but would it be a good idea for blizzard to throw in voice chat to a future BW update?

I personally think that it would change the way the game is played, not like strategy wise but people might get distracted with the voice chat instead of the occasional text chat.

Post thoughts here.

uhh i think it will be pointless due to ventrilo being so famous..
but then again if blizzard can make a program to talk to your teammates that you dont know on a random 3v3 bgh that would be pretty cool i guess

Most of the people on battle.net I don't want to chat with to be honest. For the rest there's vent/ts.

Didn't they recently add something like this to WoW not too long ago? If so, I'm sure they'll do something for SC. They've already proved to us that they still do what they can to give us what we want (RWT in last patch).

It's called VoIP and there was a Q&A that said VoIP was going to be included.

Just do what Steam does and have a mute option to mute people you don't want to listen to. An in-game chat is a nice idea since I would rather talk on the mic than typing while playing.

Cuz most people already have a vent or teamspeak set up that is personal more so. maybe if it was with it's release then it might have been more popular but i mean their voip isn't gonna beat what already works unless it was better in some way which it wasn't cuz it was slightly less custom.

even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

I'd much rather use ventrilo.

I don't want it to turn into halo where regardless of the shitty gameplay I can't stand to play due to the constant yelling of 12 year olds.

Yes, there's a mute function, and yes, there would be in starcraft as well (i'd hope), but I shouldn't have to mute that shit every game.

Me and some buddies used to take a break from 1:1 and we'd 3v3BGH with voice a lot. It really makes TvB brood war so much more fun. (not that it's boring without it).
Oh no

ventrilo is much better if you play with friends or people you trust but having the program that they will give you people would just like abuse that stupid sh1t and scream and other stupid stuff
