DEFAULT - Console Voice Chat Channel - More Options Please!

So with console we don't have a text chat option .... We have Voice Chat.
Overall I am ok with this BUT there are some serious issues with its implementation...
Since we are able to join up to 5 guilds and each guild can have 5 voice channels on top of the area chat channel.
That's 26 voice channels not including a group channel.

Ok that is the scope...

Now the problems...
  • ESO does not remember the last channel that any given toon was active in OR if area chat was disabled.
  • Why is the default voice chat channel "- All Members 1" of the first guild you accepted an invite from?
  • Note, I stated default voice chat channel above yet the game may or may not enter you in that channel on loading :-/
  • Same can be said about area chat.... sometimes it auto loads.... & sometimes it does not :-/

Solutions...
  • Have the ability to set 1 of the possible 26 channels as the DEFAULT! (Per Toon would be nice)
  • Have the ability to have area chat disabled in settings as a default option if prefered!
  • Have the ability, like area chat has now, to monitor another chat feed. (Explained below)
  • At the least -- Have the game remember the last state a toon was in when it logs out?


Chat feed monitoring
As it is now we can be in guild/group chat and monitor the area chat feed.
This feature should be available for all feeds. (One participant feed & one monitoring feed)

    I would like to also be able to be in two channels in the same guild group.
    That way I can watch to see who is in the "main channel" while I am chatting in the "officer channel".
    EQUALIZE ALL PLATFORMS!
    IF ONE HAS IT...ALL SHOULD HAVE IT!    !

    I don't care what platform it is on...an MMORPG without Text Chat is NOT an MMORPG!

    Ya I asked this awhile back and then they started having all there special episode, so it never got touched but it should be asked again.

    One thing that I want is the option to be in group and guild chat at the same time. As it is right now that should not take much work as the guild channel is green and group is blue. Voice chat needs some quality of life changes.
