Enable/Disable Chat

by **Erock** » Thu Oct 17, 2013 9:40 pm

Make a specific chat disable hotkey for each color, being able to disable the chat by tank color would be nice addition to the in-game keys. It would allow the player to avoid the annoyance of someone spamming the game on a different color while still being able to give/receive team messages.

Or to simplify things further: make two options (enemy/ally chat disable and enable).

I think its one of the points to the chat is to annoy the other team...with WHOS YOUR DADDY x100

The point of my idea isn't solely about silencing annoying spammers. It would allow teammates/multi-color mobs to communicate without having to read other pointless messages. We already have a chat disable/enable option demonic, this would hopefully give players the opportunity to choose which colors they want to see.

The suggestion would also boost coordination between two or three colors (multi-color raid or mob) when they are targeting a specific color or team. Of course, I'm not suggesting that teammate messages should be become like regular messages that everyone can read at all here.

U need this?

I think that the developer create: "Who is your daddy?, Is that the best u can do?, my dog plays better than u" to annoying and to instigate the enemy team...I think that's is right, this is a WAR game, the gibes are necessary in the game and this is very Funny coz u can understand how people can be "childish" (to prove their QI. :lol:

Good argument, however, military's also order radio silence during war times.

Good idea, but instead of muting an entire color how about being able to mute individuals?

I remember in BF when it would be so busy you'd have to scroll up to read the stuff because it was updating too fast.

Doubt this sort of change will ever happen without revamping the message system somehow.

entering custom messages i think should also be allowed (with the same basic censor that name creation has)

these messages wouldn't be sent out universally but only to one's teammates. a lot of times i want to command/direct my fellow blue tanks to attack a particular target or just talk basic strategy with them but am limited by the set messages (most of which are useless or deceiving and not very specific).

custom messages, yes sir. 2014 incoming...
