    Whats with this chat system?!

    First of all, its hard enough to switch between chat types (Clan, area, group). Then you top that with the fact that sometimes the chat is completely in active, as in i try to send messages and they never appear and people never see them.

    You are also missing the ability to whisper your friends, and it would be cool if you added some kind of world chat option for people looking for Shadow wars or something.

    Thanks

    Chat system really sucks

    WOW I would say that the game chat system is non-existent to be honest.
    If you ask a question, and it actually goes to the correct chat window/channel then you have to stare at the corner of your screen to see a resonse. Because if you miss when they send a reply it will slowly time out and disappear from your screen. I have been stuck in [CLAN] channel for 2 days now. No idea how I got into it? No idea how or when I joined a [CLAN]. I am assuming [CLAN] is this games version of a guild? game is fun, but man the little things are really starting to get annoying...

    You probably hit "x" key at some point of time, which is the shortcut to change chat group.
    Won't even have known this if I was not fooling around with custom key mapping.

    I like how the minimap only displays player icons for such a small radius that they almost immediately vanish if you are even slightly behind. And the way all the roads wind through the hills means you won't necessarily see which direction they went when you come to a fork in the road.

    In the meantime, until there is a fix, you do realise you can use /group /area /team and /clan right? On all formats.

    The devs expected everyone to be psychic, they already explained that. No joke :P

    They're improving it as we speak. It will likely be modified/workable in the patch on the 15th
    Your Challenger won't drive? You're probably in the passenger seat.
    Can't sell/delete an item? Check all of your loadouts, it's likely still equipped.
    Auction house? Why? It'll just render bits purchased lock boxes pointless, and weapons are mostly equal anyway.
    Gear/enemy progression? No thanks, it'll only render 90% of the content trivial when you reach the highest zone.

    Voice chat is integrated only for group and clan, assuming that you're tuned to those channel.
    There's no voice for the local area.
