Chat bubbles

[Saorlan]

Chat bubbles are essential for ingame communication. Darkfall was ruined by having zero ability to talk to people near them (ok there was public chat but no one had it on).

SWG was excellent in this and Mortal Online have got it about right.

The best though is localised VOIP a la APB but that is very hard to code £I would have thought.

In the meantime please please lets have chat bubbles.

It certainly adds to the feel of the game to have chat bubbles that link to the local chat box. a small range of about 20 metres would even be fine. I liked in games that had it, swg and lotro, and missed in games that didnt (darkfall)

its great when sneaking around looking for people keeping an eye for chat bubbles and local chat, just like listening out for people in RL.

Please NO VOIP. That was the first thing I turned off on APB. Nothing worse than listening to a baby cry for 45 minutes because someone leaves their mic hot.
