Groups - Member Messages/Chat

Apologies if this has been suggested previously. 

Would be great if there were a messaging systems within a group; both real time chat, as well as the ability to leave a message for all members to see, and to leave a esg. to individual or several members to see.

  • There is real time chat within the game for each group. Granted, that's not available on the forums, but the intention is for the game to be open 24/7 at some point, so no need to add one to the forums. It would be cool if when we get group halls we will be able to leave messages in game there on a bulletin board (either for individual players or for everyone to see). Also, mailboxes will be available eventually, so you can leave individual messages for players that way (again, in game).

  • Meher - There are a couple of 'chatty' resources out there, depending on your preference. I think there's a handful of Facebook groups with a chat, Eldon's Glitchbook which has chat, and a few IRC channels. There have also been a number of requests for some sort of off-line private messaging system, and mailbox system (which would be sustainable when the world is live 24/7).

    As for the Group Halls... lots of people have responded to your other thread on the topic. The short answer is, they haven't been introduced yet. They are a new-ish concept that no one knows anything about yet, just what we've pieced together from snipits of dev chatter and media releases. Probably best to continue that particular part of the discussion there.
