    Kudos to the Devs.

    My first post!!!

    Cheers!

    That's great for you, but wait till you get up in the VR levels & you end up sitting around for hours & days on end trying to get groups for dungeons & craglorn quests with no luck. Then tell us how "great" the lack of text chat is ....

    If he find s a good guild and group of friends slike alot of players have done since playing he won't have to wait hours.

    IF, lol. That's the problem with this game. Too many If's Text Chat's will encourage people to be more social. This games biggest issue is that, ZoS refuses to fix this problem.

    Their already people being social able I hear the same thing I would probably have to read in text chat their players talking all the time.Also the only reason I used if was respond to the OP was to be sarcastic he more then likely will find a Guild and group to play with just because you can't doesn't mean he won't everyone Experience is different.People tall all the time and not all of it is bad OK here a example from a hour ago some of you might consider it spam but I consider it hurt warming and something you wouldn't get from text chat.

    So I was at a crafting stationed in Waryrest X1 and this player had his mic on and out of no where his father just came and yelling at him and said every cursed word in the boom.Afterwards the player wasn't crying but he was down you can tell from his voice and the people around the crafting station started telling him its OK it be alright and out of no where this man he sounded around 40 started talking to him and he just told him his life story and that when he was young his father was the same way and he told him how he got through it.That thing was beautifully and not one person said anything about it and the kid thanked him.He could have just saved that boys life right their. That's something you would never get from Just a text box.

    My example isn't a argument for not adding it but to show you guys not all of it is spam and people playing music.Their are actual conversation and bonds being forged.So please don't say all of it is spam some of it is real and have more players being social then you might think.

    so you would have no issue with additional options, right?
    Yes I would not as I said before I would be fine with text chat as a second screen option that way both sides can get what they want and the app could also have additional features that will improve the game for even PC players not just consoles players.

    How would a companion app help with reaching more people to trade with vs being able to stand in a zone advertising through text chat? How would the app help to manage a guild if all members do not have another device to run it on? How would it help with finding groups to run content, cause I can tell you it didn't help much for Destiny.

    The app would have a platform for players to post trades and LFG and anything else using different tabs for you to select and scroll through.All you would have to do I'd post in the corresponding tab with what you need at the time and you can get back to playing until someone sends you a message with whatever you need.Since it a a app made by ZOS they can have it work with In game mechanics so you can send a message to your guilds or change the message of the day to tell your guilds what's going on.

    They can Also add a map and have the location of lorebooks and skyshards as well so searching for those would become easier.

    You realise if people want to use their phone to find a group they can just do it right now on a lfg msg board and same for trade.? It would solve nothing

    And also easily accessable from phones;

    Google.










    UESP
    the TES wiki
    Tamriel Foundry
    Youtube
    numerous tips and guides pages



    you know what, I shoulda stopped with google....

    not really, if you want to look at multiple pages at once and have easy accessible tabs, phones are a lot more cumbersome then pc's.

    Only slightly. but yes.

    I have 25 tabs on my phone open right now and I am easily scrolling through them right now. its literally a tap, a swipe and a tap. not too hard, and not something an app could really do better.
    This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!

    I'm not so certain about that. I can scan and fax on the fly with my note4. I can go through several tabs and hook up hdmi to tv if needed. Gaming is about the only reason I need a pc at this time.

    There are already sites for both LFG and Trading. However since they are not directly tied to the game, they reach a very limited scope. Text chat is zone based it reaches everyone in the area online at that time.

    Remeber, the veteran zones used to be designed to encourage grouping and enforcing the knowledge of game mechanics.

    well, guess what happened?
    Hi everyone,

    One of the topics we frequently get feedback on is ESO’s Veteran content. Some of you may have seen our recent comments about changes we have in store for ESO’s post-50 experience. We want you to know we’ve been listening to your suggestions and concerns, but more importantly, we want to tell you what we’re doing about them. Today, we have an update from the ESO Dev Team to share with you.

    Some of the concerns you’ve called out are: Veteran content is too much of a departure from the level 1 to 50 experience, playing and leveling through it is too much of a grind, and that the rewards you get don’t match the effort you have to put in to progress.

    One of the guiding principles of our Veteran gameplay was to encourage you (not force you) to group. We wanted you to be able to reach max level by playing solo if you wished, but still encourage you to group with others along the way. This principle was the reason we made our post-50 zones more difficult; we wanted you to get together with others to take on tougher challenges and form social bonds while you did so. But we understand that, despite our vision, this is not how all our players want to experience the game beyond level 50.

    We recognize that many of you love the game you played while leveling up, and that you feel the post-50 zones are too much of a departure from that experience. We hear your requests to continue participating in solo content as you progress through Veteran Ranks, and we’re acting on that feedback.

    Starting next week on Monday, July 7th, you’ll see the first significant change we’re making to the Veteran System. We’re implementing some balance changes to content in post-50 zones that will make it much more like the content from levels 1-50. Our goal is to remove the feeling of “I have just hit a wall of difficulty” that many of you have expressed—you’ll be able to solo much more easily. This is just the first of many large-scale changes coming to ESO’s Veteran System, and we encourage you to watch our QuakeCon panel on Friday, July 17th, where we’ll go into much more detail about the other parts.

    Thank you for sticking with us, sharing your concerns, and supporting a game we all love.


    So keep asking guys. Its possible.

    If they want to encourage more grouping and being SOCIAL to each other, GIVE US TEXT CHAT.

    Is there something we're all missing is there some Skill Point that lets us open up Text Chat?

    Why are all the anti text kids so ignorant about the community and game in general?

    There was a poll that you can still view which lasted about 12 hrs before being locked. Over 100 people voted with 93% in favor of text.

    Well right now their one side getting what they want and telling the other side to deal with it.My idea would a allow both sides to have what they want how is that a problem if you get text chat in the end just because it's not how you would like you would still have it.

    I have a question what will you all do if Zos have a vote that made it so.all console.player would have to vote on.the issue or not get into the game and the majority voted to only have voice chat then what will you all say and do?

    No developer of any game has ever changed their mind and implemented something based on player feedback. Nope. Never.

    Not when the majority is fine using the system in place and a minority of players what to change it they don't.

    Why are all the anti text kids so ignorant about the community and game in general?

    There was a poll that you can still view which lasted about 12 hrs before being locked. Over 100 people voted with 93% in favor of text.

    They make up their own numbers , claiming the two or three in this thread speak for all console players.

    Nevermind almost EVERY review out there lists the lack of text chat as a minus and detriment to socializing.

    The poll here is beyond 90/10 split, yet that one doesn't matter if it doesnt suit their purposes.

    So if people on the internet can make big changes happen, that makes them the majority? I doubt that a whole fanbase goes on the internet and complain about the samething, it's mostly the hardcore players that are really passionate about it. This whole "majority" and "minority" argument is irrelevant because you can't prove anything. We don't know or care who the majority are, we are just here to let it be known that we the text chatters are out there.

    That poll is unusable since the voting poll was tainted with PC players.So to get a accurate number on who want it or.not.they will have to ask the console community.

    I just made a poll on this cause I couldn't figure out why THIS thread wasn't a poll. Why did they lock the other one?

    Can people Please try to get back "on topic".

    This is the "last standing" thread about console textchat.
    If "they" lock it for going off-topic "we" may not be allowed to start another one...like...ever. :'(

    Sorry, just annoyed at the "an app will solve everything" stuff

    I never said it would solve everything all I said was ok t would give both sides what they want without either said not getting what they want .
    No, its one side getting what they want and telling the other that it would solve their issue.

    Well right now their one side getting what they want and telling the other side to deal with it.My idea would a allow both sides to have what they want how is that a problem if you get text chat in the end just because it's not how you would like you would still have it.

    I have a question what will you all do if Zos have a vote that made it so.all console.player would have to vote on.the issue or not get into the game and the majority voted to only have voice chat then what will you all say and do?

    It is a position of non negotiability. the only compromise beining to be able to turn it off in the UI. it is not something with a solution outside the game in a third party aplication.

    I would say the same things. The majority ruled that veteran content should be faceroll easy, and that still doesn't sit well with me. And I will, and do, voice my opinions on the matter.
    This one has an eloquent and well thought out response to tha... Ooh sweetroll!

    I hope the text chat is separated into different tabs: Global, Local, Market, Alliance, Guild, Veteran, Trials, etc.
