I think one of the devs stated that it's only free until it's working properly. Once it works as good as it should, you'll have to pay for it. I might be wrong though, it was a while ago and my memory sucks.

I don't like the idea to make Eve Voice activated by default in the next expansion, this can make some complications with people who can't understand vocal english.
I imagine request at a pirate to shut up and write his ransom ^^
Ok I troll. The real problem is the obligation to be connected to use Eve Voice. In some cases like a fleet battle, this helps to know if I can relog on or if the fleet did a warpout, etc...

This kind of things aint fair to Deaf players that I've met (Yes, I'm a deaf player myself) as well as those that cannot speak due to vocal disorder of some sort (Met about a dozen or so).
Those kind of things only serves to isolate Deaf and others even further. Whats wrong with typing? Ive chatted up a storm with so many players and they all type just fine!
If CCP is going to have this free, they should also include Voice to text and text to voice then to make it a all around fair free thing for all players of all aspects of the EVE-online.

i dont quite get why so many people seem to dislike eve voice, one major complaint was that it wasnt free, which is it is now, and when it does become free people seem to complain about it being useless in fleet battles and you need a seperate client.
If eve voice was a seperate client then it could not be intergrated and people would use vent / TS anyways.
Not everyone in eve has access to a TS server, and this i think is a great bonus to eve, dont write it off untill you have tried it with the new fleet interhrattion (which looks like the sex)
Advantages over a stand along clinet
1) its free (TS/vent is never free somone is paying for it, even if its not you) 2) its fully secure (unlike all the stories of TS / Vent getting "hacked") though of course thats as long as you can trust eveyone who you invite to your voice channel 3) you can talk to anyone in eve, you dont have to get somone of TS if you want to do negotioations. 4) if you merging 2 fleets / large gangs or more from different allainces you have to usually decide which TS your on then get one group to move over and then grant them all the correct rights / drag them, with eve voice its all intergrated 5) no additional program to run 6) very high quality, and as far as i rember runs on a different server, so though you wont be able to use it when your out of game, even if your frozen ingame it should work relatively lag free 7) fully intergrated into fleet warfare in the next patch, which will be better than any leadership / command structure you can get with ts 8) nice quality
and thats just some of them off the top of my head
and so far the only disadvantage is that you can use it whilst crashed, which i dont think outweighs all the advantages.
it might not be perfect for fleets if your expecting lots of crashes, but generaly for anything else its much better, including just things like chatting whilst mining, or mission running with a new person who may not know TS details, or for those corps who dont want to / cant afford to run a TS. Alot of stuff happens outside of fleet battles where this is going to really improve things i think, and with the new intergration into fleets i think it even outways its disadvantage.
sorry for the long post i just think that eve voice is being given a hard time when it should not be. - Thanks Hutch. ____

i can't really see what is unfair about not having to pay for a service. and to calm you down i really doubt that everything is going to be voice now. most alliances and corps have vent servers anyway and at least from my experience i can tell that pretty much everything is still being communicated by taping anyway and even in fleet situations someone relays orders to fleet chat as some can't run ventrillo/TS for some reason. also i know and fly with a deaf eve player myself and we never had any problems getting the info to him evven in fleets. once you know that he can't join in on vent you can easily use other means without any problem.
we will not isolate you. *hug*

Surely it can be rather hard to force your ransomee to join your Vent server so you can ransom him properly? 
This is really one of the best features of it. Not the ransoming per se, but the ability to talk to anyone in EvE over voice without having to get permission to bring a guest on your TS server (though I am yet to be told 'no'). I've started using it after I got back from the FF, and its been a pleasure to so easily talk to out-of-alliance business partners, people I know in RL who play EvE, or conversing in arabic with fellow egyptians and arabs in the game.
Now when I did activate it, it said that it was a 30 day trial. If the next expansion is more than 30 days away, will I get auto-charged for it or will it just stop working?

You are missing at least the disadvantage that TS works on low-bandwith connection, Eve-voice not. For me Eve-voice should work (if it doesn¦t crash regularly), but I have a monthly download-limit, which would be reached with Eve-voice much earlier.

My main problem with eve voice is I tried it a few days ago and several of us crashed. So we logged back in and no-one could get the eve voice channel to work properly.
So we went back to vent and just as my gang mate engaged a target I activated the gate to jump in...and crashed in exactly the same way as the previous eve voice crash and my gang mate lost his ship (fortunately only an AF). I've never seen a crash like that before activating eve voice so it _may_ be a coincidence but right now it has seriously put me off the idea...

I would probably use EVE-Voice if it worked...half of the people in my corp can't get it to work. Some of us just can't join the voice channels, you select the option, click it, but nothing happens. Or with some of them, some people see them as joined, others don't, and no one can hear them, and they can't hear anyone else...
So we stick to vent, as guess what, no one has any joining problems, it always works, it has better sound quality, it doesn't stop if your game crashes, and yes it's almost free, unless you count the cost in electricity to run it on a spare PC. ---------- I gave up on sigs.

Typically the FC just needs to know that someone is no longer able to direct their ship when the client crashes. Can't do that if the voice comms are integrated in what crashed.
Simply for EVE voice to ever replace TS/vent it must be standalone. And it must offer a competitive or superior feature list. Until then it's just another thing like that weird head tracking option that no one uses. -- Support fixing the EVE UI | Suggest Jita fixes

Edited by: Disteeler on 15/11/2007 16:29:13 I understand it's free but I really distate when, in the activation webpage (into My account) it says:
"EVE Voice - Free 30 day trial
To activate your free trial for EVE Voice click on the button below.
After the 30 day trial you will have the option of adding unlimited EVE Voice usage for a whole year to your account subscription for the promotional price of $9.95 (reg. price $14.95), which is less than 85 cents per month.
For more information about EVE Voice and how to use it in-game please go to the EVE Voice Pages."
I suppose more people will use it if you just change this memo or active it for everyone automatically.

The Abyss Corporation and Abyss Alliance will now use only Eve Voice. :)
We also intend to ban alts from the corp and reject metagaming, making our corp numbers realistic(ly insignificant!).
I'm on my high horse most days in the ABVSS channel if anyone wants to come say 'hello'. :)

So now we can tap on "local" in Jita and be flooded with voices ..  
It's great being Amarr isn't it.

Originally by: Kuolematon Oveur said in his Fanfest presentation that EVE-Voice will be actually FREE?! If so, sorry for the bad words lately .. I lub j00 if you really gonna do it! 
I might even stop playing "other games" 
It's going to cost double for Amarr and I'm taking away your ability to warp.

Originally by: Rakeris I would probably use EVE-Voice if it worked...half of the people in my corp can't get it to work. Some of us just can't join the voice channels, you select the option, click it, but nothing happens. Or with some of them, some people see them as joined, others don't, and no one can hear them, and they can't hear anyone else...
So we stick to vent, as guess what, no one has any joining problems, it always works, it has better sound quality, it doesn't stop if your game crashes, and yes it's almost free, unless you count the cost in electricity to run it on a spare PC.
on sisi or TQ?
p.s. it sucks on TQ right now. Official fanboy of jenny< pink supporter! looking to work in the art department with CCP, 3 years and counting. http://www.digipen.edu/main/Gallery_Games_2004#Narbacular_Dropthi |

I think it is awesome that they are including it with the regular subscription. I'm not sure if we will use it, but it is nice to have the option.

Well if its free then i'm defeatnely signing up. that is the way it is. I can't wait to see what the fleet options are going to be and personally. i think it enhances the gaming experience. So keep it up. as long as its free and everybody can use it, it can actually become a succes.

I think that this will be successful if CCP:
a) can weather the lower numbers than expected until it's popularized. b) continues to provide quality service for eve-voice long term.
It must be understood that it's a service that many already use for free, but will be looked at quite closely to make sure it provides the same level of service we already have, before large alliances and corps switch over.
