Sweet expectations for 2015



We always look forward to the coming year hoping to get something better than we have in current one. Judging by the efforts of game developers, the year 2015 is really worth waiting for. Here is what takes our breath away:

Grand Theft Auto V – Action

It has spent much time on consoles and finally reaching a PCs. To cheer up tired of waiting players we can say that the game will end up in their hands in a rather refined state. All bugs and drawbacks were tested on console users and being taken care of by developers. In addition, new cars and weapons, as well as new missions are waiting for you as a nice bonus.
Developers swear it will come out not later than the 27th of January 2015.

Evolve – Action / Shooter, Simulator.

Together with your militant friends you will be able to chase and shoot a ferocious beast that grows bigger stronger and angrier. It seems that the team of developers (creators of Left 4 Dead) are pretty tired of herds of stupid zombies, so they decided to create an epic cunning monster able to easily face valiant warriors.

It is set to come out on the 10th of February 2015.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - RPG

The Poles have come up to the final part of the trilogy about The Witcher. In this part of the game developers promise an absolute freedom of action (within permissible limits) and even a little more: exploration of a big open world, some alchemy, various artifacts, and of course weapon creation.
Treacherous developers have given a new release date, the one of the 24th of Fabruary, 2015, will see…

DooM 4 - Shooter

According to developers Doom was stuck in hell. Hell of development process of course, and nobody was expecting its release. There is no Carmack behind their backs to support them anymore, so the result is quite uncertain. They promise a new engine id Tech 6, all series rethought and a multiplayer in addition.
We will see what it gives in 2015.

Overwatch - Shooter

A dark horse from Blizzard. The game is pretty like a Team Fortress and clearly stands out from the familiar games (WoW and Diablo) made by the developers. It seems that they have some aces up their sleeves and are preparing to set a new standard for the genre.
Blizzard as always, will indefinitely polish the game (at least they gave a beta version) so there is no information about the release date.

Battlefield: Hardline - Shooter

Cops against bandits... We are not used to see Battlefield like that, bigger than CS, less than GTA, but as epic as Battlefield itself. Together with friends we will rob banks, rescue hostages and chase each other around the city. The game should turn out fast and breathtaking.
We are waiting for its release on the 17th of March, 2015.

Mortal Kombat X - Fighting

Two generations grew up playing various kinds of this deadly clash and now Mortal Kombat X is on its way. In addition to the old characters there will be a lot of brand new ones, as many as 24 in fact. Also, each participant of the deadly combat will have 3 modes providing a whole new experience. In addition to that developers included some modern tricks like an interactive environment and a scale, making a super combo possible.
We will play old ones by the end of the winter 2015.

Alex Babchenko gamer with more than 10 years of team play experience about voice chat


I played in many teams from 5 to 300 people under my command. Now I play DotA 2 most of the time and for a long time I have played Lineage 2, WoW, TERA, Archage, AION and World of Tanks.

- Can voice chat solve organizational problems during the game?

Yes, it can. It is much faster to explain by the voice than to type. Actually no one plays without voice chats now.

- Do you advise to use voice chats? Why?

Yes, I advise anyone who plays in team to use chats. You can not quickly coordinate actions without a voice communication.


- What problems can arise when you create a team and during the game?

There may be constant conflicts over particular gameplay stuff, I mean game valuable this, loot etc.


- What is the difference between problems in the organization of newcomers compared with passionate gamers or even professionals? If they are, how they are different?

Yes, they are different. Usually players with experience have no problems with the organization in general.

- Have you meet something special when you played in small teams? What is so special about them in organization? What are the pros and cons?

It is more comfortable to play in small teams, but not all games give you such possibility. Sometimes a team consists of 1,000 people or more, and so you can do nothing without a voice chat.

In total, such projects have earned $7.9 billion this year. LoL managed to overtake even the shooter Crossfire, which received $50 million less. Many people have already forgotten World of Warcraft due to the rapid exodus of users but it's still a great product of Blizzard, so this year WoW pulled its position from the seventh to the fourth line of rating and increased revenues from $218 million to $728 million.

Also Dota 2 shows growth in the rankings, this game was in ninth place, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft closed the top ten, ahead of The Elder Scrolls Online (earnings about $ 111 million) and Star Wars: The Old Republic (earnings $ 106 million).

It becomes obvious that free-to-play games becomes the most popular. Number of players and profits are soaring all around the world. During this year only in the United States on micropayments were spent $1.4 billion in Asia - $3 billion.

Games market does not lose its position, even despite on the crisis, the fall of national currencies and other terrible things. This means that more and more people need inside and outside game communication. And if earlier common chats were used to do this, now you cannot play without specially developed for multiplayer games voice chat. Group voice chat have become an integral part of the gameplay.

MyTeamVoice understand this perfectly, because we ourselves are passionate gamers. Therefore we produced the voice chat with minimal impact on the games, but with the highest quality of communication and necessary functionality for both small and huge teams up to 100 and 200 people.

One of the China’s colleges in, in the region of Chongqing, introduced to students a course of the Dota 2. According to teachers of this college, students will learn to analyze and improve an extraordinary thinking with the help of this popular game.

This approach is quite interesting, because these team games is always more than just a time killer game or simple entertainment. You need to learn how to play, and communicate with your team, you have to analyze the situation and calculate movements on a few steps ahead, and not only for your own team, but in addition enemy ones. You must do whatever it takes to bring a victory to the own team, because Dota 2 is a competitive online game.

The teachers who organized this program, also say that this course is optional, it is only a trial for 90 students, and at the end of the year, the college administration will hold selective testing of students to evaluate the effectiveness of training and to check whether the results stated objectives.

We remind that Dota 2 is an implementation of well-known map "Defend of the Ancient" from Warcraft 3 game (released in 2002).

By the way, thanks to Dota 2 the genre MOBA gained more and more popularity in recent years. MOBA is multiplayer online game in which competing teams of five players try to destroy the enemy base.

This and similar to it games also make professional group voice chats required and popular, through them the gameplay has become more interesting, dynamic and enjoyable!

Do not forget that the Voice Chat will not only help to put together a team, discuss strategy and details of the future of the game, but also to respond quickly and prevent the enemy steps.
