With the release of Chapter 10: Game Update 5, fully integrated voice chat can now be found in Star Wars Galaxies. Coming to Star Wars Galaxies players at no additional cost, voice chat can now be used to chat with your guild and groups!

The integration of the in-game voice chat brings several brand new UI elements: the Voice Bar, the Voice Users Window, and a new voice tab in the Options window. In addition to these improvements, there will be a speaking indicator in the group window, a target window, and you will see a name plate of those using voice chat above their characters.

For more information on all of the improvements and how to use the new chat feature, check out the announcement article for the voice chat here. It seems pretty simple to me and a lot of fun. Looks like an awesome time to join SWG to me as well.
