It the arkfalls, the skitterlings bite the Arkfall rock, causing a pustule to appear, you shoot the pustule for major damage.
If you kill the skitterlings, no bite, no pustule, takes forever to defeat the 'rock'.
Then don't enable them if they are added?
Has anyone *ever* requested that you be forced to use them?
Well im not saying that a reason needs to be shoved down players throats, more of an incentive to be grouped/guilded socialize a bit and encourage social communities to grow, nothing more alienating than game systems that present nothing but downsides to being grouped.I tend to think that the kind of people who need a "reason" to play a multiplayer game with other people are generally lost anyway.
I suspect they also have enough developers to look at the existing chat window, the issue with saving some settings (including voice chat) *and* the possibility of chat bubbles (making chat more obvious for the people who want chat bubbles can only be a good thing for the games social aspects).
It's not like we are talking a 1 man dev team where working on chat bubbles means all work on the existing systems is abandoned.
And they most likely do have more than one person working on chat, however I imagine that chat coding isn't very simple especially when taking into consideration ingame player distances for /y /s + bubbles (assuming /s /y are even in the chat system at this point in time?) not to mention weaving in a rubbish voice chat. In any case I'd hope the people on the chat development team are focusing on fixing the current mess and only that. Rather have one thing fixed and working properly than 2 half arsed jobs. (safe to say if chat bubbles are implemented soon they'll probably be as messed up as the rest of the system)
Get with the times! Who uses chat these days, Teamspeak's where it's at!

That's cause you don't have any friends. Friends will revive you 90% of the time, with a 10% margine of error.
This is my BIGGEST complaint about the game, and the one thing that will probably make me leave if its not addressed quickly.
TeamSpeak?! Surely you jest! Ventrilo or Mumble at least! *snobby voice* lol
Also, voice disables text chat from people? What in the **** is that about. :/
The entire chat system needs to be scrapped and rewritten. Problems with it are:
1. Too much "combat garbage" in chat that overruns the actual "players posting messages" chat, so you never see it.
2. Lack of scope definition. How much "area" does Area Chat actually cover? I have no idea, but it's not much.
3. Definitely need a "global chat" for all players on any server.
4. A server-wide channel for "Looking for Group," or need to add more missions to the N-map, like WoW Dungeon Finder. I'd love to get some help on the San Quentin mission but can't get anyone to answer.
5. "Looking for Clan" channel.
Ventrillo, Mumble, teamspeak are your friends. Use them or lose them.
Anyone that knows mmo's knows that chat is useless. Full of rants and trolls.
Guilds, clans, whatever never use chat anymore.
The N-Menu is strictly for instanced grouping. It is dungeon finder, just not for overworld quests. More missions are added as you progress upwards in EGO levels. I have 7 at 631 EGO.
That's half the fun IMHO. Either trolling the trolls or taking a playful shot at someone. It's good fun.
