Atari has taken online gaming to the next level with its announcement integrated voice chat will be included with its upcoming release of Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach.
Any gamer who has been around the block a time or two with titles like PlanetSide and World of Warcraft knows how difficult relaying messages in the heat of battle can be. For those who love video games, but cannot type with any speed, the situation can be crippling.
Imagine being on the last mob of an all-day epic battle and failing because critical commands couldn’t be relayed in an expedient manner. It happens all the time!
To combat the issues typing presents, many gamers have turned to hosting their own voice servers through services like Team Speak, but the D&D release is expected to be a cut above. Since it’s designed specifically to work with the massively multiplayer RPG, the voice system should function a lot better than other ancillary programs do. Plus, it will eliminate the problem of some players having the program and others not.
Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach is expected to be released in March 2006 in the United States for PC players.
