How to Get Voice Chat to Work With Starcraft II

In "StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty," players can participate in multiplayer missions and battles with friends or complete strangers through the Battle.net system. Players can choose if they want to fight cooperatively with each other against computer-controlled opponents, fight in teams against other players or play in free-for-all fights against each other. The voice chat feature allows players to communicate with each other vocally instead of having to rely on the typed chat function and in this fast-paced game, good communication can mean the difference between victory and defeat.
