Say Chat (Text Bubble)

[Ildur]

Knowing Squee, I'm sure they will find the way to make the imaginary "too many speech bubbles in my screen" problem a real one.

Oh, and you would only be able to see the bubbles every third day of the month and only when it's 20°C or higher in Alaska.

I said it was a NIGHTMARE, doesn't mean it's real >_>

Would be good for a Rep to reply to this thread so everyone knows the reason why the chat bubbles aren't implemented.

I guess that answers this thread.

Anything to do with "server limitation" or "hardware limitation" is just a poor excuse for them not wanting to implement this feature. If a game from 2004 can do this then a game from 2013 can do it too.

say without bubbles is stupid, so many people don't realize you are talking to them until it's too late...

Hey everyone,

We see mention of this being discussed in reference to Beta feedback and how we said it wouldn't be implemented then, but just to be clear, we don't have any plans to implement this in the future.

[Naunet]

we don't have any plans to implement this in the future.

... Why not?

No, seriously. This hurts no one and it's a much requested feature. So why the heck not?

I'm on the side against having visual speech bubbles. I don't care what reason was given about limitations. My concern is the screen clutter. Can you imagine being in Mor Dhona or in towns or FATES? Oh, I can turn it off you say? How about we just not have SE waste time even working on it and put your energy towards actual content for the game?



That's my 2 gil on the topic.

Those are not speech bubbles.

With so many useless minions and mounts they're creating, I find it hard to believe the "PS3 limitations" excuse :\
