The greatest anti-social game would be Fallout3/NV or TES or old FF games. I was struck in the man cave for months on those.
Defiance at least has clans. Diablo 3 don't even get that.

didnt know about the chat radius thing, how did trion miss that i wonder.
yes it is. The reason why not one talks to each other in chat on this game is because of that and no one notices the little tiny box that goes away fast.
and to the guy that said "TES, FF, etc" games are anti social, those are single player games. This is an MMO. Those arent.
If they put in a global chat channel and didn't give us the option to mute it, I'd be extremely pissed off. Global chat in every game I've ever played has been beyond worthless due to being filled with nothing but children and trolls.
the only time ive really seen the chat being used was during the bug that just happened
+1 for lousy text chat. DCUO was better, but I still thought it was lacking compared to game UIs designed for players with mice and keyboards and fingers that can type. Designing a game UI for console controllers just dumbs the UI down absurdly for those with keyboards and mice... I hate itOne line of text chat (under usual circumstances, unless you've pressed 'Enter' to bring up a few more lines) just isn't enough. I don't bother saying anything most of the time, because I know no one will see it anyway.
It was refreshing to see people interacting. I love this game and have tried to talk my friends into getting it to have someone to play with, but they aren't interested (and are primarily XBOX players and I am playing this on the PC). Okay, that's fine. But I have no way to meet up with other players to run missions etc. I would love to have some help against a mission. The only way it happens is when someone just happens to be on the same mission as me.
It IS an mmo, and it has NO way to actually interact. I play another MMO that has about the same chatting. But at least in that game there are well known places that a lot of players hang out at, so you know where to go to get assistance, meet clan mates, etc...
I hope they get this fixed.
