TeamSpeak 3 open beta begins next month

The next version of TeamSpeak, the proprietary Voice over IP software that allows users to speak on a chat channel begins open beta testing on 19 December.

TeamSpeak 3 has been in development since 2004 and was originally estimated to be released in mid 2006, but as this software has been completely rewritten with multiple new features, delays were inevitable.

Both server and client will be available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. The rewritten code will improve TeamSpeak's performance and compatibility and allows the native binaries to be compiled from the same codebase for various OS targets. TeamSpeak 3 clients and servers (both 32-Bit and 64-Bit) are currently running on:

All platforms will be 100% feature compatible so regardless of which platform you use, all new features will be available across all platforms on the launch date, including Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. Support for additional operating systems and platforms will be added after TeamSpeak 3 has been released.

The multitude of features will include fully integrated 3D sound support, improved security and privacy, tabbed voice comms. (allowing you to connect to multiple TeamSpeak 3 servers at once), file transfers, sound packs and much, much more.

More detailed information can be found on te TeamSpeak 3 fact sheet. Beta testing starts on 19 December.

Finally, TS2 is so beaten by Vent it's unreal. Hopefully TeamSpeak 3 will be much, much better than TeamSpeak 2

Voice Quality and Latency TeamSpeak's most important feature - the talking part - is already implemented. TeamSpeak 3 is using a much higher audio codec resulting in much clearer voice quality. In addition, the developers have already significantly lowered the latency of speech compared with TeamSpeak 2 and other voice communication software solutions. TeamSpeak 3 will support the latest Speex and CELT codecs and provides automatic microphone adjustment, advanced noise reduction, and echo cancelation. If this is indeed true, which i really hope it is, this new version should be awesome.
