I don't think the idea of having your avatar talk in-game, it would add major lag and mass confusion in populated area's.
What would be cool would be to have the option mentioned before, allowing soci members, team hunters, or even the option of random avatar's (if willing, select an option) to carry out chat on a private frequency. Something similar to online shooter games where it is push to talk. Would do wonders on identifying specific mobs on hunts, rather than different teammates unloading on different mobs (happens to me quit often

)
However, I do see a problem with the language barrier. I've got some soci members where English is not a first language, and quite often I'm, uhhhh

hmmmm, what was that? So that may be an issue. A friend repeatedly asked me to go to Atrox Walley with him, I thought he was talking about a dance
