Raidcall is specifically designed for group communication, especially for games requiring tight teamwork such as FPS and MMORPG games. It can provide clear voice quality with low latency, with no need to rent servers or set up a server yourself. Raidcall makes group communication easier.

Additional Comments
Installation instructions below. Issues with pulseaudio were the reason for problems with audio. The app itself works well.

Uncomment [multilib] repository in /etc/pacman.conf
Then do:
#pacman -Syy
# pacman -S wine winetricks
As normal user:
wine raidcall_v7.0.2.exe
It will ask to install mono and gecko. Accept these.
There will be two installations of flash. One will fail with an error (possibly because of not being run as root?) and the other will complete successfully.
After this you should be able to run RaidCall, log in and use the program.
I tried it in Sabayon and could not get it to connect, it would crash every time. I will be looking at this once I get bi-directional sound working, and get the emoticons working.
I did have a problem where after accidentally launching it twice, it started to leak memory and had sucked up 12 GB of ram before I noticed it. I am not sure why this is, but easy solution is not to launch it twice.
Seems to be a bit CPU heavy for a chat program, I am not sure why this is. I am looking at ways to lower this.
