Chat Channels

If there ends up being trade channel, I would suggest limiting the item linking feature to only work in that channel and in whispers.
Hopefully that would cut down on the amount of trade spam in non-trade channels.

That's a good idea!

Looks like GGG are doing a really fine job of covering off all the angles in this game.

Personally I can't be arsed with chat channels in action zones, as long as I can minimise or hide 'em I'm happy. This stems largely from my inability to butcher and loot mobs at the same time as spamming messages to my co-players. You guys must have a third hand I suspect :-)

Chat in town - cool, best place for it anyway especially for trading with the sub-zero "look what I have to offer" linking feature and of course touting or looking for party up etc.

It would be nice to see whenever your mates are on line, maybe a filter gadget to easily squash spammers and the like (I like that idea of RMB drop down menu over a player's name with a wee list of options).

Keep it simple, I don't want fifty arcane command line switches just to ask directions to the nearest toilet/bar. I want to be hacking, slashing, looting & frothing at the mouth most of the time, not engaging in meaningful dialogue.

But that's just me ;)

- Your own created chat channel
- League channel
- guild channel
- there could be specific channels for players who would like to trade,or meet players at PvP or so.

1)Own channel
2)Guild channel
3)Trade channel
4)Class/character channel (somekind of help channel but to limit msgs just to one character type)
5)Party search channel (the channel could display msg only from people near ur lvl range)

Man that would just condense everything in life but work into one game!

Damage chat where u could see wat happend to u during a battle damage dealt/damage reciefd/stun/taunt ect for isntance if u got hit by somoen and died then u could look in that chat to see who it was and how hard he hits u so u can decide if u will go back and kill him or try to avoid him XD

and obviously u can't talk in that chat its just so u can see ur damage and the damage against u

This may have already been mentioned, but isn't having party and instance chat redundant?

If there's no one in the instance with you, then you wouldn't be talking to no one, but if there is someone there, don't they have to be in your party?

Your party members may stretch across multiple instances.

And in cut-throat leagues all instances are public.
