Voice Chat in MP

Please excuse my blindness if my question has already been answered, but is it possible to have Counter-Strike style voice chatting in FL MP? I saw people talking about it in threads related to MS Game Voice, but can't figure out how to enable or use it.

I think they were talking about voice recognition for ship control, such as, saying, "Cruise," to fire up the cruise engines, not chatting. Although, it would be nice to have voice chat. My friend tends to ask me questions when I'm engaged in battle. :p

Thank you,

Thanks. That's what I thought, too, but I just wanted to be sure.

You can still use voice chat with the GameVoice... you just have to be signed into instant messenger. Until the have support for freelancer, then you won't need to worry about it. I find it easier to use Roger Wilco, works great, and isn't a resource hog.

You need a separate voice chat application. Try
teamspeak

or ventrilo

or, of course, microsoft game voice.

@ Joxxer

I have MS GV. Are you suggesting that I run it in the backgrond completley independent of FL?

Grrr... I need more RAM badly... It's not easy to type in the midst of combat.
