After playing Global Agenda(which has integrated VOIP btw) and getting retainer kid screaming "OH MY GOD GUIZ GET THE SNIPERZ!111" I am glad no VOIP is in for now. Sounds selfish and yes, I can and did turn it off.
However if you are having a problem and need to talk to lancemates, there are many free vent servers available. There is also the option of making your computer a vent server. Which is something I did a few years back for a guild.

it would make more sense for them to have vent or TS servers set up than to develop their own in-game service. after all, we want the game sooner, not later, and the only way they do it sooner, with voice, is to make it less good and make the voice crappy. you can't just plug that code in easily. they are working on getting the key features of the game done right, so they can go to open beta and, soon after, hopefully, release. i'd say best case is a linked in voice chat server. then it's a question of being able to auto gamers to the correct voice channels for battles. otherwise, you're on your own setting up a vent or TS server and having your friends/lance mates connect to it. that's good, in that you only have people you are willing to listen to whine, but it's bad in that there's no link to other team members, in 12 man teams. but better to wait on integrated voice than to delay the game for it.

Rise from the grave for you are needed once more.
Current word is that devs know in-game VOIP is wanted and have decided to maybe do it later (never)?
[partial_sarcasm]Besides that can anyone point me to a teamspeak server that instantly connects me with everyone on my team at game start?[/partial_sarcasm]

Why have you raised this from the dead. Nothing good will come of it. Nothing I say.
VOIP is lightly integrated and more is coming.
