      I think the CoD series has lived up to the franchise history as of 2007 quite depressingly well. : Tawler

                I don't think it breaks anything because I can count on one hand the number of times the chain of command element of VOIP was actually used, let alone used effectively, in all the years I'd played BF2. With the exception of private servers full of similarly motivated players, no one used the in-game VOIP, and if it was being used, it was usually either someone not aware their mic was broadcasting, so we all got to hear the latest episode of Montel in the background, or it was a sperglord raging at his teammates.
                
                So, as far as I'm concerned, nothing has changed. Tacti-lol players can all jump on a mumble or teamspeak server (or use the built-in battlelog functionality) and VOIP to the heart's consent, and the other 99% of the playerbase can play in peace on public servers.
