The New Chat Restriction in The Feast

[Ama_Hamada]

So this is SE's idea of balance? a premade with outside chat vs no chat?

It's really fun playing an 8V8 and having two tanks with 8/9 stacks continuously run into the backlines and go for healers, immediately run back because they took damage, and immediately run back in. Forcing healers to spend way more resources of their moves because there's no way to tell them to stop doing that.

Honestly? The only way I've gotten people to stop doing stupid mistakes is using "Nice job!" "Thank you!" in the most sarcastic way possible in the Feast. Oh you died with ten stacks? Nice job! Nice job! Nice job!

There's no way to tell people how the game actually works with this new chat system. That's why it's -not- fine. You can't help new PvPers and they end up having an awful experience. The minute before the match starts also opens up a HUGE amount of time to coordinate that you just can't do with these restrictions.

In regards to the marks, a lot of people really don't care about that. It's easy to say that those players should do something else. The problem? They won't. No amount of chat restriction is going to explain that they shouldn't attack x target or focus y target for these players.

Did you read closely to the quote you are replying to? It is passive-aggressive, I am sure someone tried to give them advice, threw out some line that is basically "Do not tell me how to play, I know what I am doing" and people flip out. My friend told a person once "do not run in 10 people solo, you will be killed" only to get a reply of "I am new, don't be a cuck" I am sure a lot of people saying no chat is fine, have that attitude. They also have low experience if they think it is that simple.

Why is there so little communication to us by SE in regards with this issue? oh wait it is just like the change to feast. *blows MLG horn*
