You made me much more comfortable after saying this, I have to open the site when the new update comes as I used to do before.

Sure, just don’t forget, please.

@X-Space_Raven-X I changed my mind, this idea sounds cool, additional small improvement: show who’s typing with 3 dots.

This - people underestimate how hard it is to build a decent chat system, especially with a censor. In fact, I’d argue I’ve never seen a game that handles the issue of censoring well.

Personally, I’d only be for a chat feature if it involved the little speech bubbles from the previous games, and even then I am extremely dubious. But I don’t want a little chat box in the corner of my screen - yuck.

It has been suggested… a lot actually. But we already have the forum and discord, why do we need this?

Plus when it comes to Steam you’ll get it with Steam anyway.

And even aside from that, we could still have the issue of people just spamming the hell out of the chat.

This is how the lobby chat in ShellShock Live looks like. Every. Single. Day.

You changed your mind coz you read full topic

Seperate chat channels
Universal, Local Star System, Squadron, Party and DM.
Party for when the game releases with Co-op mode.
That’s the way it should be.

Well, good idea.

We already have this forum and Discord, why do we need this?

I want just improve the game in Social aspect

anyway, I will go to play the game. I hope Canterlot didn’t give us new missions, Because I want to Finish missions in my Solar System

I think a lot of players really want this, but iA has decided that this is not such an important feature in the game, especially during Early Access. Unlike other online games and previous games in the series, it’s unlikely that online multiplayer will be easily implemented (the only interaction between players in the game so far is the Challenge leaderboard and the Squadrons), and it is decided that any chat or communication feature is not necessary, at least yet, while you have a lot of ways to communicate outside of the game.

I know. Let IA added that feature even after the Early Access

I gave a request.

Ahem, off-topic

That’s not a bad thing - it means other people have agreed with you in the past. It actually increases the likelihood that it will be implemented. :wink:

I will say that even though I disagreed with the specific idea, I am totally in support of this same general goal and we just need to figure out how best to do it.
