Well then sorry to tell you but your chances of getting what you want is slim. As I said, the main reason SE would think about this I think is cross platform, and due to that likely not being possible, I just cant see them putting in the time to make it when other programs exist already that allow for easy voice communication.
Well please don't take what I say as opposition, but simply as doubt.
yep, put me down with those who don't think neo-nyzul is broken. broken means something isn't working (see voidwatch drop rates, etc.), but it doesn't collapse, freeze, randomly play cb signals through your speakers or delete your drops. there's a difference between broken and stupid design, this falls into the latter. Just so we are clear on the part I consider a stupid design-if you do everything right you should reach your goal, here it's if you do everything right... maybe you get to your goal.
Apples to oranges? Please don't be stupid with it.
Chatting programs that exist by far and wide are generally for one platform. Skype is available on multiple platforms such as Linux. However the Linux version is an older version of Skype that does not really measure up to the Windows version. The Mac version of Skype also lags behind the Windows version. That is just a company dedicated to just Skype. You really want Square Enix with the lack of manpower on XI compared to their other projects. To stop what they are developing to make a decent VOIP for PS2/3, Xbox 360, and PC? You want them to make a VOIP for PS2 for that matter? Come on please do not be silly.
Once more even if SE took the time to make a decent three platform VOIP why would the majority of players stop using Skype, Vent, TS, or Mumble in favor of SEs VOIP? If you think about the whole picture there should be no reason I should have to really explain this.
Please do not play the victim. It does not provide any real credence or substance to a conversation.
I am going to avoid really even talking about this, but on a side note. How funny would it be if you turned out to be someone who uses a social network?
Please reread my post and use your critical thinking skills. I believe this may provide you with clarification as to your belief I am against SE making a VOIP for the platforms of FFXI just because you want it. Once again, you are not special enough for me to single out and alter my speech just to spite you.
I am not out to justify what I say. Take it for what you will.
Shhh, you were supposed to drink the Kool-Aid on the way in.

You're right, you shouldn't have to explain your points, or justify any of your arguments because that would make too much sense. Let's have snow cones instead.
I wasn't being stupid with it. You were. The need for a chat app was created by SE. They put an event that more or less requires voice chat into a game that does not support voice chat. You are lacking important mental faculties if you don't see the problem there.
It's dumb to build an event that requires features not included in the game. It's extra dumb if you aren't even smart enough to sell the required features yourself and instead let some other guy provide them while simultaneously spamming your players with advertisements for competitors games and / or charging them money that you could have made your self. That is from a developer standpoint. From a customer standpoint, being against building the functionality needed to play the game into the game is just plain retarded.

Wait, why are people talking about voice chat being a "requirement" when JPs have beaten the event, and will continue to beat the event, despite almost never using voice chat? (In shout groups, no less)
Voice chat isn't a requirement, that's a silly thing to say...does it increase your chance of winning? Certainly, it helps your team coordinate better and that makes a huge, huge difference in this event- except that's something you can apply to every event...ever, including ones in other MMOs.
Oh ho ho ho.One thing we know about SE's voice chat system: it will suck and people will hate it.
What a silly thing to request.
It is funny because it is true.
