In patch 2.2 for World of Warcraft, players will be allowed to chat with each other using a voice system instead of typing their chat. In a voice chat, players are allowed to use a microphone or headset to talk to their friends and allies. A chat interface is included in the patch, and players can set up networks, channels with their friends.
Chat preferences
Players can begin their chat in one of two ways: Push-button: Players must hold down a button before speaking, as if it was a walkie talkie. Any key can be used as the command key to begin talking. Voice activated: Any time the microphone picks up a sound, the chat will be activated. Players can alter the settings to a certain decibel so voice chat isn't always activated.
Background:
World of Warcraft is the most popular massively multiplayer online role playing games in the world. With reportedly 16 million M.M.O players in the world, World of Warcraft has nearly 10 million subscribers. It is the fourth game in the Warcraft series, and the follow-up to Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.
