Topic: LOCAL CHAT?!?!

This game really needs a local chat. Why am I playing a game online if I can't talk to the guy next to me? Please tell me it's coming soon.

Re: LOCAL CHAT?!?!

If it were possible to create a local channel which would not in any way report to your client who is near you (even if you hacked the client - because people will), then it might be doable.

EVE has had the Local or No Local battle for years.  Local is abused in EVE because it contains a list of players.  Even worse, it provides a place for scammers to easily hawk their wares, rather than selling them legitimately through the market.

You can talk to the person next to you just fine without a "local" channel.  There are even multiple options. PM, general chat, etc.

It's not needed at all for the reason your citing, and the other reasons there are, aren't good ones.
