"Everything except actually playing the game", in other words.

This, gentlemen, is exactly why this idea is ridiculous.


It's called "voice chat" and it was mentioned in the OP. Nobody buys this excuse when better alternatives to promote communication already exist. Sorry.

Also, if communication by chat is the goal, there are still multiple much better ways to handle it that do not affect the game negatively.

edit: rest of the responce Betelgeuzah left out:

Anyone of of those above listed activities could constitute lost DPS while in battle because you're doing something else than pressing a button to keep your DPS up.
That becomes tedious, quickly.
We are playing a MMO and because of the need to press a button for every action taken we lose out on a huge portion of a MMO: Communication.by not being able to take a moment w/o losing TP or DPS or both.

When did talking in a multiplayer game become ridiculous? You're Ridiculous. This is a game, meant to be enjoyed. It's not fun having to press a button for every action!

Voice chat isn't an option. It will never be an option. And should only be an option amongst friends and LS . Have you ever played a game on Xboxlive or PSN you have a game filled with 2-32 people , of those maybe 12 have a mic, 4 of them are cussing up a storm, 2 are tossing around racial slurs, 1 has an always open mic. and the others don't talk. How do you think pick up groups will be? And
how do you propose PS3 user chat with PC users? Should SE develop a VC on their already laggy servers?


P.S. why not quote my whole post did you find some truth in it? I'll fill others in on it.
