It is a free alternative to TeamSpeak3 (TS3) with superb voice quality. Chat with your friends in-game, play co-op, get your squad together or hell even outside of it for normal chit chat. Also, PG clans can request for individual channels as well (PM for more info).

More feature listings like squad play, co op, multiplayer, team play...it will benefits single players, friends, multiplayer and community experience as a whole.

Change username from the server settings (someone must already be using your username) and or create a new certificate, Configure tab -> Certificate Wizard -> Create new Certificate.
