Can starbase provide guild voice channels based on subordinate management?

There should be guild announcements, Council discussions, battlefield command, team voice and so on.

Discord is a thing.

Not everyone in any country in the world can use Discord without barriers.

If your country doesn't have easy access to the standard internet, I have doubts that Frozenbyte will be able to estabilish a voice-server for your country. Plus, most of the world that will be playing has access to Discord, so as sorry as we are for you not being able to access Discord and other parts of the internet, wasting development time for a game for multiple channels of voice chat might be a bad decision.

Voice chat is a "maybe later during early access" kind of feature. For now no voice in game.

Okay, maybe we should find a better voice chat software than Discord.......

According to Lauri, "voip is on the very long list of nice to have things", so I wouldn't expect it in the near future. If Discord is a problem, there are alternatives like Mumble (free, open source), Teamspeak (self-hosted options), and Ventrilo. There's also alternatives like Guilded.

Voice chat would be nice, but as many people said, Discord does a good job.

Also if they really include a voice chat in a guild system, it would be a mess to hear something. Text chat is probably a better solution

i dont know much about voice options other than it will be a thing in game. but for like guild announcements, news, etc, that is already in the player UI, watch the company and faction video you can see the options in it and on 17 patch notes theres an image. the rank permissions for a company shows where you can disable members from alter the MOTD, Company Bio, News, and Info.

Spoiler: Player UI

EDIT: Also if you look under the drop down window on the image above, you can see Officer Chat Speak. So right there shows if its not ready yet, multiple chat channels will be and maybe even voice chats.

I think you want a quick chat channel to talk with the players near you in game.
If you want that it may come in far future.

Something like the squad radio in games like Arma is definitely useful in games like Starbase so that you don't have ten thousand people chatting at the same time during a space battle. Could be done with discord but would require the squad leader to constantly switch between VCs.

the way the main factions with the dev players are going about doing it is through actual military protocols will chains of command. If your running multiple squads, you would just need your squad leaders with you in one channel but they too would need to be able to relay messages to their squad some how. Hopefully their will be Squad Voice chats since Squads are a thing in the Company UI. If so leader and squad leaders in discord, squad leader and troops of squad on their own voice chat.
