I just feel that a central issue is being ignored.



From the moment I log onto the game my voice chat service is trying to establish a connection. Correct? So whether I am swanning around the guild hall, on a raid, doing tradeskilling, changing my display resolution, or whatever, it is irrellevant to my problem. I can accept that there is a pause between each voice service connection attempt but whether the error is in my modem, my sound card, my firewall or wherever, something is blocking that connectivity and that this would be happening continuously. True?

So what's with 'Options'? Why are most of us experiencing a freeze and unresponsiveness when we go near our voice chat selections?

If this lag is caused by Voiceservice.exe trying to get a connection why is it that I don't walk one pace, lag, one pace, lag, one pace, lag, etc? My modem isn't listed in Options, nor is my ISP or anything to do with connectivity. IF these were the problems then the symptoms they would cause would be game wide and show up from the moment I logged on.

Logically, the absense of voice is the result of the problem and the source of the problem is a conflict in Options.

The lag you're getting when you open options most likely has something to do with the voice service trying to query windows for your device information. This is why it wouldnt happen any other time.
