| '''Not required, just recommended.'''
| | EVE Voice was the in-game voice chat functionality. CCP discontinued the feature in early 2018 due to lack of use and the amount of dev time it consumed to keep it functioning as patches, expansions and improvements to the sounds in EVE rolled out. |

| <br> Sometimes Mumble goes down, and sometimes the Uni is at war (when anyone undocked should be capable of at least listening in Mumble), or you might be in the middle of a fleet op in null-sec. To prepare for the eventuality that they happen at once, it would make sense to prepare by enabling EVE voice chat in the game settings if you haven't already, and setting up a push to talk button and your mic if you're likely to be commanding in a fleet (this isn't in the WSOP, it's just good preparation). EVE Voice is not a bad tool. It works quite well nowadays and is much better than no audio at all.
| | On a short term basis, if Mumble should go down, during a time critical event/fleet/QRF, revert to using Fleet Chat, and using Fleet interface commands. |
| | | Mumble service restoration will be a priority for Uni Management. |
| === Mumble crashing EVE with overlay on ===
| |
| Overlay can show who speaks in mumble at that moment in EVE. It is enabled by default, and you can disable it to prevent crashing. If you have ATI TRAY TOOL it may crash your eve. Turn it off if you want to have overlay on.

| === How to join EVE Voice ===
| |
| | |
| # Hit esc and go to the "audio and chat" tab.
| |
| # Click "eve voice enabled".
| |
| # Adjust push-to-talk button setting as appropriate (middle mouse button is default).
| |
| # Adjust volume to 3 to prevent damaging unistas ears, and then adjust again after asking for a mic check, if needed.
| |
| # Back in game, right click the chat tab you wish to enable EVE Voice with.
| |
| # Click "l see a volume box on your portrait showing that you have joined correctly. once you have, do as 4 says and ask for a mic check. a volume of 3 will prevent blowing our ears and also give you room to raise it one tick at a time for perfect audio.
