Maybe this has been discussed before but i dont have a lot of luck with the forum search..!

Is there any solid info about chat channels after launch? Its been discussed a lot in game recently and the general consensus seems to be that global will go (a good thing imo) abd the rest will stay as is.

Personally, if we are just left with general this doesnt do it for me as far as a local chat goes. I would much prefer local or general to be actually local and not a radius of a few square kilometres. What about a real local chat to talk to those in your immeadiate surroundings? I dont have a problem with guild or group chats being a wide radius or even global but surely the point of the village message board system and mail is to create a level of emmersion that a glbal chat channel doesnt?

Any thoughts or info on this?
