Once I heard that text chat wasn't in I cried a little, I got over it eventually but now I'm crying again. It's so hard for me to play without it. Nobody I know seems to care.

I only heard about this from your thread (I don't own a console, so I wasn't searching for this). Then I was searching for more threads, found a poll about adding text chat, voted YES, was about to quote someone who mentioned deaf people, but then I saw the thread was closed, dammit. Because this was my first thought, too, when I read there's not text chat on console, that's unbelievable! I'm not deaf, but I'm really sorry for those who are and wanted to play ESO on console!Venus Ocean - Breton Sorceress VR16, EP, Tamriel Hero | Gixia - Breton Sorceress VR16, EP, Tamriel Hero

things to do about this; sell your ps or xbox buy a gaming pc or grab a hammer and smash your console then buy a gaming pc and play like a MAN !!! idk gamers prefer consoles everything is limited on consoles. Also if you like joystick or controller you can always use 1 on PC too. Also you can upgrade your hardware most of the time and use it up to 5-6 years.Thats why i always think console users mostly kids or oldies cos they cant figure how to use PC. I hate consoles

Zazaaji✭✭✭✭Ah yes, this thread again. The majority of people want it, but the anti text chatters are EXTREMELY vocal, causing mass arguments and insults from both sides, and then eventual thread closure.
Still, I'll say my thoughts again: I simply need text chat to actually be able to enjoy the game properly. USB keyboard supports both XB1 and PS4 natively, so that moots out people saying it'd be too inconvenient to bring up the virtual keyboard.

Or people don't want to go from working on computers/servers all day to playing on one at home. I for that reason and a couple others do not play on PC but do admit that the gaming on there for the most part is better.1 -

100% wrong for keyboards. In Xbox Neverwinter, instant response/input, never once bugged or anything. Just as easy and reliable as PC Neverwinter.Ah yes, this thread again.

✭Console launch was definitely rushed, but whats new. They didnt even add new non-vet Cyrodil campaigns.1 -

It was delayed by a year and a half after PC. How is that rushed? They could have stuck with their originally plannes console release of a year ago, THAT would have been rushed.Console launch was definitely rushed, but whats new. They didnt even add new non-vet Cyrodil campaigns.
Rushed =/= Poor planning

You would imagine they check how many people buy the game and add new Campaigns accordingly? And no chat.0 -
Shiavui✭Yeah, having no chat is really disappointing. Voice chat doesn't cut it and never will. Communication is very difficult without the chat.1 -
Yeah, this is my one problem so far with the game. I really don't know what they were thinking here. This area voice chat is becoming a pain also, so far I've heard a chicken, lawnmower, a bullhorn and a Bieber song. It's horrible. Here's to hoping For text chat in a future update.PSN: Welsh_Assassin26

Konquest✭Srry if my input offends anyone that sees things differently then me but this is just my say and it must be said.
This game needs text chat on consoles or bad things will follow the consoles version, pls dont gimp the eso experience for us console players, communicating players w.o a mic is long/slow and a real task. Some of us need to communicate with others by text so we can be more effective in alliance wars, dungeon or raid strategy. we need more options then what was given. This will come back and have negative effects for us all the player and company.
Pls find a fix for this and patch it in, thanks in advance
Here is a couple options i seen used befoe. For ps4 users we can double click the center thumb pad to open a chat window. And for x1 users should be able to do something alike.Edited by Konquest on June 11, 2015 6:59AM1 -
VSeconds✭I have USB keyboard, I can use it on both ps4 and xbone, and it response like normal PC, Why wouldn't they implement ingame local chat, guild and group also?
Ps, when you use Hello Emote, there is a bubble pops above your head already, so the text show in it, or just another chat log on left down corner.1 -
the reason why I want text is simply to join a 24 man group in Cyrodiil."There is panic in my fascination - Like soothing wine is my despair - Gracefully I fall to pieces"

DeanWinchester88✭✭✭Has Zenimax commented on anything regarding this? I really do think they need to implement text chat, it's a must!Xbox One/PC, North America.

I haven't seen any comments from them. Imo there gonna really make it or break it with the text chat request from the players.

eviltims✭Text chat would be nice, heard some kid on voice chat selling items in town, that was annoying, hearing him constantly repeating that. No idea if a chat box is hard to put in or not, but other mmo on the console has chat box.1 -
They have to put it in....right? I mean there are so many uses for it that makes an MMO what it truly is."There is panic in my fascination - Like soothing wine is my despair - Gracefully I fall to pieces"

xeoneexb14_ESO✭✭✭What is needed is an ingame protest of their ingenius decision to remove text chat from the game. Lets see how well they enjoy 100+ ppl in a single area making noise to prove a point.John 3:16 = For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.1 -
blossy✭✭I understand they aimed for more streamlined console experience. But apparently their lead UI designer followed the "too many options confuse the user" rule way too literally.
It just is not applicable in a MMORPG. This is not anything like Destiny.1
