The chat works except its "off" be default as opposed to every other game on the market that has the never ending scrolling babble from everyone in the zone. So you have to press "enter" to turn on the chat and you get to see the previous 4 or 5 lines, usually system messages.

Now in all fairness to Trion, they do have voice which turns on automatically when you group, assuming it wasn't turned off in the audio section of settings. Of course there is no push to talk option. There are no options actually, its on or its off that is it.

That's awesome, keep up the good work. I'm having a blast playing this! :)

Quite pleasing how fast you guys are fixing all this :D loving the game, loving the community this is more than I expected and I'm extremely happy x).

Patch Notes:



Is it possible to notify gamers in game of updates and patches that are about to happen rather then just shutting down without notice.

---

They did man, ya gotta watch that chat bar.

So are the PS3 servers still down or is it just me?

Actually, prime time starts closer to 7 pm on the east coast due to most work shifts getting out at 5 or 6 pm. With bringing the servers online by 6 pm or 6:30 pm depending on platform, this means they will be ready when the bulk of players begin to surge in.

It disconnected right as I got gold on north point time race I hope it saved lol

oh, and if they're working on something a little more efficient and intuitive with voice chatting. I'd really like to have an option that disables voice chat in pvp entirely - or at least shows who is broadcasting in real time. I'm tired of going through the list of 5-10 recent participants and muting half the team one at a time until I figure out which moron has his TV on in the background and who the idiot singing in spanish is and what ****** is ignoring their starving kids. I must spend at least 10% of every shadow war individually muting everyone that doesn't have or can't find their mute button.

idiot singing in spanish and parent's ignoring starving kids.... CLASSIC!!

No one has answered this so far:

WHAT THE *%&# IS THAT SUPERWEAPON?

As I'm from the UK just wounded when the server would be back online much appreciated if anyone can let me know? Xbox platform

Options - Sound - Voices ... turn them on or off. Simple as that. Also if it bugs out and you hear them again (happens sometimes after relogging), just put it on on and then again on off. Problem solved :D

I agree with this as well!

Dropping in game VOIP would probably help, and can always be put back in. Hey dev team, make a poll, let your community speak. On the subject of you guys doing something <__<'' Perhaps you should add in server status to the client window. Almost every single free to play mmo has it, there's no good reason a retail game doesn't. ._. Loving the game.

---

Is your mic on mute on your system settings, do you have a switch to mute yourself on the mic? Try going into something like google+ or skype or just a recording program and seeing if your mic is actually working Sounds like it is an issue from your comp/mic and not the Devs end.

well you did get a server warning and it only takes 10mins to make mod slot, soooo if you do lose out that would be your fault, sucka.

Perhaps they should set a long 30 second spawn time when out of combat, but if the player in control of the vehicle goes into combat it reduces to a 5 second spawn time. Something to that order would allow people to do things at a quick stop without clogging up a Arkfall fight with incoming vehicles.

I appreciate the awesome work you guys are doing. I love when companies put effort into improving their game.

(Trollface) Why patch day on friday at 530pm est... ! (/Trollface)

It will be about an hour man, might be a little longer if they end up having any more problems.

For some reason on the co-op map Explosion 101 the achievement doesn't appear once you complete the mission I have done this twice now.

Great Game, hope the fixes patch smoothly. Looking forward to playing the polished product with no downtimes etc... I think you will have a real winner with this game once issues are sorted.

there was a bugged advanced weapon that you could pick up several times and put it in your inventory it popped as the quests name rosa something ... not sure but could be this

Ok what about the player character glitch where everyone appears as the default character on your screen and same for yourself, you will appear as the default character on other's screens for a minute and then it'll change back and this process will continue? Anybody else seen this?

Probably because of arkfalls and the 100 vehicles sitting there.

Also people keep parking them on mission points so you cant select them.

just checked...... people are unable to complete pursuit who allready used "That´s all i got" :(

and damm defence still missing

"thats all I got" is still broke - I already have the intel on it, but I do not have it under pursuits, and I can not pick it up again.

It's good all the fixes are happening but I just stared my boosts for my clan at 5p and now the servers are down. What happens to lost time on our boosts. Will anyone be comped for that?

Ahhh ok szito86 you on Xbox platform I wouldn't mind joining a clan :-)

probally would have stopped after the first one.

Ok man hit me a FR on xbox box and when I get back on I will get ya in man my GT is Szito86.

reason for this is because of arkfalls and other places where lots of people abandon vehicles, i like the shorter time. It is no big deal to get the vehicle back.
