What kind of problems have you had and in what other games?

I've been playing MMO's since Ultima Online more than a decade ago, and I've never seen VoIP abused.

I think the most offensive thing I've seen in any multiplayer game was actually in MWO's chat two weeks ago when some keyboard commando spent the entire match trying to come up with new ways to insult me (which were false and unrelated to the game...like calling me a fat homeschooler).

I just thought I'd put my 2 cents in this. I like it and I like that you can use it to, listen without saying anything if you wish and using the info given or, turning it off. Nice choices. I just talk when I feel like it. It's easy not complicated at all. Also there is nothing anyone can say to me that can bother me in a game. Why let someone you cant see or even know if they are real bother you. RELAX-INJOY.

Kadix you really want to know what turned me sour to voip?

three words: League Of Legends
played it for a few hours go sick of the player base and haven't touched it since last year.

what bothers me even more about voip is when more players find out about this game and join is how fast voip will go down hill.

Definitely keep VOIP on by default. This has been a great, game enhancing feature to MWO. Team coordination is now possible and usually works if the speaker is giving clear, concise orders. Many folks ignore the team chat or get too distracted in the heat of battle to check it (myself included). VOIP orders are much easier to notice when engaged in a big stompy firefight.

Keep VOIP on by default!

You are compairing League's player base to MWO's? Now THAT is lol worthy.

Maybe if it was about a year ago and/or if only those the regulared these fourms were the full player base. MWO's in game community isn't even close to League's level of trash. MWO is one of few games that I would consider "VoIP-safe".
