    Well.. It's an alpha.

    Good thing its an Alpha, so there's still room for improvement. That info is useful. Perhaps head over to the official forums and provide constructive feedback. Not much more can really honestly be said here.

    I'm serious. That kinda stuff is good to know for them.

    Hazol dude, why don't you just create one topic called "Blizzard = bad" and post there?
    No more time wasted in WoW.. still reading this awesome forum, though

    I dont even know what to say to a post like this. Please learn what Alpha means.

    And nobody should even compare this to 9 year old tech.

    Holy shit is happening. Blizzard voice chat is near. This could mean so many things.

    Why is the first Thread about this a Chat = Bad? Is it really that bad?

    This could mean Raids will be queueable in the future.
    No more excuses of "you need coordination" because now we have a chat for everybody

    hopefully this will put to rest all of those terrible voice chat programs. So fucking tired of needing Different voice chat clients for Pugs.

    ...Does Alpha mean anything to you, or did this free system put out for users to test elude you on the conceptual level?

    Of course we're going to be using our 3rd party VoiP's while they iron out the problems. That's why we're testing it.

    They can do whatever the hell they want. If all it's going to be is voice chat big deal. Discord does that and a bunch more and is just as free.

    Maybe not a decade yet, but seven and a half years is still a looooong time when talking about technology.
