You can still setup chat channels like before. Guildchat should work the same regardless of location for any members.

it mentioned in the quick start guide that keys such as q and e were used, that got me thinking, in chat are we to have to press t for example beforer we ca type anything, fps style, the the only problem with this is that it would leave you unable to pilot and chat in space is a neccessity for player squadrons

The best "Squadrons" will have a voice chat.
If your typing to eachother, be ready for a lot of mishaps.

True.
Programs like Roger Wilco, Teamspeak, Ventrilo, and others are a must for any serious team. Typing simply doesn't cut it.

i agree completely but SOE is still going to have to implement a chat system that won't leave you asitting duck. BTW do any of the voice-chat services mentioned allow you to host a server free?

My favourite of the three programs is Teamspeak, and I recall hosting my own server at no cost.
The only problemis that someone has to host the server (which used up little to no resources on the host machine, so that is really not a problem).

Pretty much all of them have free server software. At least the ones I've used do. Gamevoice, Teamspeak and Ventrillo.

Teamspeak is my faveriot, I run a server for just my friends when we play games. It is an ESSENTIAL tool for organizing events such as hunts or raids. As for chat in game..I guess you'll have to type really fast and choose times to type wisley while in combat.

I think I will be afraid to type/chat and fly in space. As it is I run into and get stuck intrees while chatting and driving my speeder bike. Can just see me stuck on some asteroid because I was chatting...ack.
