He did say "We have 2 more big technology hurdles to clear" so you have a shot of some kind of anti-cheat being put into place.
still laughing at voice chat knowing how much it's actually used in other games*
I've seen it work well in team strategy games. Planetside 2 has ok voice. Can work well to organise big assaults full of dozens, if not hundreds of pubs. Not too many people found smak talking in voip.
Then there are games like H1Z1 where people will abuse you or run up claiming to be 'fwiendwy' only to shoot you to death when you take your eyes off them.
(both of those games developed by SoE, now Daybreak. Same system, different player attitudes. Also both full of Hackers)
I'm hoping Hawken given its team focus is more of the former. Obviously there would be a way not to use it all, but hopefully you can block invividuals. If it gets to be a real slagging pit, perhaps an option to only speak to whitelisted people? Its easy enough to ask people via typing to whitelist you for voice. Perhaps send invites like party join or invite to match.
