Now how would it be to have everyone speaking at the same time? Tiring? Probably. Fun? Probably. RP? maybe. It would change the whole game experience for sure. On NA it would be terrible, people would play back porn sounds and extremely annoying music while fighting. But on EU I think it could be possible.
As far as I understand, Mumble is an open-source Voip application that is scriptable.
The idea is that one could use this to talk to each other, automatically joining you current Team's channel. Mumble also supports position based technology, so you would only hear people that are close to you. IDK if the last, or even the first one is possible though.
If one could send the players in team-list to a mumble server, one could script the server to sort all those members into group A, and the others to group B.
That is the very basic and simple approach. If one could also extract positioning of players data and send and adapt that to Mumble we could speak to whomever we meet on the field.
The next step is to have a commander election system, where commanders get priority speaker and longer range voice..
I know this sounds very ambitious, but we all know what chadz is like, the bigger the better!
Note that this suggestion comes from someone who has absolutely no idea about programming or how cRPG is made etc.. If this is indeed impossible, then come forth and tell us devs!

all it would be is people yelling about teamhits and complaining about lack of team support
A good idea, but honestly I'd rather just hang w/my clan,
Half of the reason to play TF2 is the voice chat, in all honesty I agree with that. Amazing fun times because of it.
Yeah, just judging from your usual EU screenshots and my experience, it would be filled with people insulting each other in another language...Although their is as much idiot on each side the culture is very different.
Both sides have equal amounts of idiots. What are you basing your NA theory on exactly?
Me and a few clan mates actually tested it once in cRPG the positional audio actually worked and it was quite epic being able to yell at who we came in to range with.
If this was implemented it would be awesome to the extreme.
Edit: Finally having the ability to say and yell my awesome battlecries at the enemy would give the field a whole new level of awesome.
judging from the way people act in game and on forums im gonna have to say....
NO
I'm already in TS with my clan when I'm playing CRPG, the resulting clusterfuck of CRPG and Mumble would make my ears cry.
Then you can smack talk the guy you're fighting.. aw yeahhh
Dear god no, the chat alone is annoying enough.

you've never played on a well run Natural Selection, Empires Mod, Day of Defeat or TeamFortress server then
they'd be half the games they were without voice comms

Dear god no, the chat alone is annoying enough.indeed, and if some people need to mute it because of the little annoying kids (really, they are there), you will miss a lot of crucial info. Or do you expect people to both call for help in voice chat and write in chat 'go to the flag'. would also be fucking annoying if you are using ts
Each time i'd die i'd go down swearing and cursing my killer! :twisted:
the bigger the better!
That being said, you have to opt-in (connect to mumble server) and you could mute people.
