I would hope that it's a given that there will be voice comm within the game. Any word on bandwidth requirements? Codec quality? Essentially what I'm asking is how does it compare to Vent? TS? Source? Will there be any special features (enemy team can hear local voices)?

    Speex please. Nothing more annoying than seeing servers using Miles instead of Speex...

    Everyone knows that. Some people are shy though.

    As they are using Steamworks, I assume they are also using the voicechat services that come with it. Expect it to be similar to Source games then I guess.
