Built in voice chat

[Blarp]

Tell ya what, everyone will worry about PS3 players when the game drops for PS3. Right now? Useless feature is useless.

It's completely moot to try and implement something into the game that will receive NO USE, only for it to be re-structured on a new game engine.

Like I've said previously, I'm not opposed to in-game voice chat because I like most PC users in active Linkshells will use the other options available, and we always will. Sure, it'd be nice for PS3 users...... but we won't have PS3 users for 1+ year(s). It's called biding your time.

I don't think anyone is demanding that in-game VOIP should be added right now. Just thinking ahead.

The problem is though is that this thread will be buried or closed long before this becomes a legitimate question. I don't think it's a dumb question, I think it's a dumb time.

This is an unintelligent mentality.

here you say lets aim to be reactive and not proactive.

Lets not prevent problems, lets let them occure and solve them after they are already an issue. You are certainly attepting to be part of he problem and not the solution.

So what about PS3 players genius?

It'll be even easier for PS3 users since FFXIV won't be hogging up their PC!

Really? I'm just a regular gamer.
What about PS3?? I got a PS3 and I'm not worried about it. I hope they decide not to add the feature... "genius".

Couldn't put it any simpler but over complimenting a MMORPG with voice IP is something SE could think about but not worry about when everyone has all other crazy demands.

I think PS3 users (some really) would be dieing for "voice chat" but I would probably a compatibility 2nd or 3rd pty program as SE has stated it would support. I don't think they'd refuse it, just not develop it. A PS3, it's sort of like a computer that can run programs in the background, as long as voice chat doesn't interrupt other players of FFxiv.

I agree, which I stated later that it's not a bad question at all (for PS3 users), it's just a bad time. I'd say PS3 Beta would be the perfect time to throw this idea out there.

The PS3 is a closed platform. Good luck getting 2nd or 3rd party programs on it without softmodding the PS3 itself. Also the PS3's hardware cannot handle doing multiple tasks at once. Notice why you can't listen to music whilst playing games? Or cross-game voice chat? It'd just be much easier to use Skype/Vent/Teamspeak like everybody else. Typing isn't very hard either.

First thing PSExport, you're rude. Second, he asked about PS3 players. No one cares about your "kick butt" PC.

To OP, it's doubtful. Not something I would hold my breath on for 2.0. It's sad but we've set the bar so low, I don't want addons or extras, just a playable game that's fun and has content and lore.

Merry Christmas.
