Hello
One of the biggest painpoints for new players and a pretty counterintuitive system atm is the current chat system.
Would it be possible to integrate the channel option as a kind of drop down menu into the existing chat window (Clapping up instead of down, WoW for example (Yeah, yeah I know >_>) had for quite a while a little button in the chat, which you could press and then choose to activate / deactivate the different channels.
Also personally I am a huge fan of the system, where you can enable the different channels permanently (not just for a single message) if you just write /team or /local for example, way more intuitive for multiple messages and channel switching than clicking.
Also is Help enabled by default for new players? Just finding out how to change channels might be a huge challenge if you are not used to the UI.
Are these Ideas even doable?
Would it be possiple to map the channel switch to short commands (/Team /Help /TradeNC /TradeMB etc.) or does it already exist and I just don't know about it (sadly google searchers tend to be inconclusive for such an old game).
Regards
