This sucks. There is no other way to describe it.

4 people limit = pathetic.
Friend code required = pathetic.

How about just being able to jump into a Conduit deathmatch and being able to speak to everyone in the game?


How useless they have made this.

 

 Don't be silly, mun.

The Wii Speak channel is just for chatting outside of games. 

The way Wii-speak will be used in game is completly different to how it's used outside of games.  Games like the conduit will feature the "normal" FPS chat features

Wrong. Four room limit.

IGN: And you can have up to four groups of people on the WiiSpeak Channel.

Cammie Dunaway: It's up to four rooms of people. You could have an indefinite number of people. I think that's what a lot of people will do, particularly around the holidays. One of the things that I think is cool about it is how you can share photographs very seamlessly. So I come back from a Thanksgiving trip and have photographs that I want to share with my brother in North Carolina and my mom, and you can share the photographs and comment on them.
