Do you like all the new notifications in the guild chat screen?

CaptainRex · October 12, 2016 5:00AM

No, absolutely not! It needlessly cutters up the guild chat scroll screen and breaks up conversations.

Settings
Guild Settings
Announcements
Off
Now your chat won't explode every time a guild member gets a mod, increases the gear level of a char, levels up stuff, etc etc.

Ing256 · October 12, 2016 5:04AM

And you won't get any other useful guild message.
Sorry, not going to work, was very much aware of it since the start, in fact the first thing I checked was if there is a way to single out the useless messages

tRRRey · October 12, 2016 5:05AM

That also mutes raid notifications which isn't good. You'd think the devs would have enough foresight to implement selective muting..

Keaven · October 12, 2016 5:17AM

With all the frequent useless guild notices I imagine everyone will be turning them off.

The only useful guild notices are when members join or leave, and raid statuses. Everything else is annoying and trivial.

I don't care when someone activates; gears up; promotes a hero; or levels up.

Ben_kenobi · October 12, 2016 5:35AM

I agree, but unfortunately I kinda need to know if someone leaves.

Wicket · October 12, 2016 5:36AM

Good news. Don't read those ones.

Rem0rseful · October 12, 2016 5:37AM

I kinda like the idea in principle.

If everyone was high geared, and a 'congrats' for g11 on ugnaught could be cool. But its just spam atm.

If you could choose which notifications would be handy. I like some.

DARTH_TED · October 12, 2016 5:43AM

It also will make relevant team instructions impossible to keep from disappearing as it updates every stupid thing imaginable. PLEASE make this stop!!

KingPin · October 12, 2016 5:58AM

Not sure I like it honestly maybe as others have said only announce max of something like star or gear

We have a couple guildies not on discord. It's not a requirement, and for whatever reason, they actually can't install it. It's not stubbornness, they just can't. Announcements for them will be quickly lost. It's not a matter of just "don't read those ones". It's a matter of in game chat has been a point of failure since inception and this just made it worse.

AGREED!!

Terrible idea, makes chat effectively useless.

Nikodemus77 · October 12, 2016 7:03AM

They got the idea from marvel future fight

Pjay · October 12, 2016 8:00AM

I cannot believe they added this nuisance when there have been alot of great ideas for improvements in this area from the players. Instead of the ability for a leader to send a message to all members inbox we get this crap. A real let down I think.
What about a usable guild noticeboard.

surely you meant to say "even more useless"
it was never any good to start with

Hobnob · October 12, 2016 8:14AM

I thought in game chat was just for typing 'thanks for the gear folks!'

Trouserdeagle · October 12, 2016 8:40AM

No, I don't like it, but there should at least be options to shu mute them without muting raid notifications.

This, and telling people to download XYZ chat app.

Hobnob · October 12, 2016 8:42AM

@Trouserdeagle 'mol eliza stop hitting the rancor it's a 24hr 0 damage cooldown, please download LINE app'

+1

I loled.

Lasserini · October 12, 2016 9:34AM

Idea is cute enough and would be great if they just added a proper filter.
Having to choose between tons of useless spam and not seeing when Rancor goes into next phase sucks.

Nice enough to see when people level (although once pr round level and max would suffice).

Keaven · October 12, 2016 11:36PM

Even with notices disabled it still bumps player messages lol.

I was wondering yesterday how quickly the forum mods would get annoyed if the forums were spammed with irrelevant status updates like this.

Cashavelli · October 12, 2016 11:57PM

You whiners need to calm down... it's not that big of a deal..

Kyno · October 13, 2016 12:08AM

I don't mind them, we don't chat much there anyway...but why not put in useful info...

I.e.-
- 'x' has just hit 600
- 'x,x,x,x,x' donated to 'x'. Thank you. (This is basically all we use in game chat for.)
- ...

I'm stuck what else could they say...

darkensoul · October 13, 2016 12:12AM

I don't like it cause the chat doesn't fade. If the chat faded afyer it poped up it wouldn't be a big deal. Any time I am in arena or raiding and a message pops up I have to stop what I'm doing, open chat and close it again to get rid of that text sitting there at the bottom of my screen. Not sure if mild ocd or what but I don't like that text taking up my screen space. It is highly annoying.

ShaolinPunk · October 13, 2016 12:23AM

Settings are so cool.

darkensoul · October 13, 2016 12:25AM

I suppose I could turn it off and remember to turn it on before raids. Hopefully it doesn't bug when I turn it on so I can see what phases have been cleared. Pessimistic, I know.
