You can still text chat or use squads (and presumably pre-battle teams) to get voice working. |

This isn't the cheapest option for in-game voice chat with your squad outside of a battle.
Squad voice still works.
it's only CORP voice that's disappeared (when it was advertised as a feature of the UVT, not a default functionality).
You can put together a squad, turn on your mics, and chat away without any need for UVTs. When you're in-game, you can talk - for free - with your whole team in the team channel. It's going to cost you ONLY when you're talking with people you're not ready to enter battle with, or already in battle with. |

You do realize that a large portion of players are young and dont have credit cards? And despite being young, every member is valuable, so when you have a few players who are now forced out of the in-game chat it creates rifts both socially AND strategically as thats where a lot of discussions would go on.
A game thats meant to be hardcore, then throws a spear into a key part of organized competitive play. Smart.
How many other PS3 games have you played where you get voice comms with people you aren't either about to enter battle with, or already fighting alongside?
If and when we get the ability to form full teams before a battle, this shouldn't be enough of a problem to prevent players from organising and discussing things, but it will be JUST recognisable enugh to encourage AUR purchases. |

FAQ on UVT from CCP.
Highlights :
-CCP will be putting out a 'corpwide' UVT item that will allow everyone in the corp to use voice in chat regardless of having a UVT of their own
This point isn't correct.
You're saying it's definite, when that post states they're LOOKING AT the option of setting up an item that does this - there's no confirmation that it will happen. |

I know many people who will not pay and quite a few who will not play
Intended or not, bad move I for one will never pay for UVT in a teambased large scale mmo
And you're never going to HAVE to pay for UVTs for team voice, because you get team and squad channels voice-enabled for free. |

So people still have complaints about corp chat being a paid service?
Feel free to take my up on my challenge. |
