guidez 180 Posted June 20, 2012 I thought that Global Chat as supposed to be disabled? I am still finding servers with global chat on, and it's really really annoying to have to read all the Q.Q'ers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Macenzie 79 Posted June 20, 2012 I think the servers that do not force the beta patch have this. Any player without the beta patch can still toggle to Global. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RawCode 0 Posted June 20, 2012 chat removal cripple gameplay much, this is extremely stupid, allow players to join and leave channels.if you joined side channel - you able to see it, if you joined any other channel - not.if you too spudit to mute players you dont like from menu, this is not reason to remove chat from everyone.

guidez 180 Posted June 20, 2012 Weren't they supposed to force it? I mean, yeah, I can just hit up another server WITHOUT global chat, I just thought Beta was the requirement now.And it's not about muting players or not: It's about the realism factor. It far more interesting and realistic to have to be close to someone to talk to them then to be X Km away and making chat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jk_scowling 44 Posted June 20, 2012 Yeah the side chat can be annoying, and it is more immersive without it. Makes solo playing a more lonesome experience though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SDCowboy85 1 Posted June 20, 2012 How does side chat work? I've never gotten a response when using it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daish 11 Posted June 20, 2012 without side chat it kills alot of the growth of the game and new players will be more frustrated without a channel to ask for help and meet new people Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
