Forums - Sony - PS3 Firm 2.70 - text chat?

people like to text chat, they added this feature in hopes of boosting sales of their keypad. get with the program. a lot of people like to text chat, so if you dont just man up and wait your turn for voice chat. the next update or the one after next voice chat will be in. but you'd probably still complain about something, someone always does.

yeah it sucks that there is no cross-game voice chat but it wasnt there before u act like they took the feature out and gave u cross-game text chat instead

Having not taken the time to read through this thread, I will say that it isn't useless for me. I probably won't be using it much, but I wouldn't use the cross game voice chat much either. I think the text chat is useful for games like Warhawk, when you're trying to set up a match with some friends. For example, I have some friends who I play with on Warhawk a lot and it's a bit of a pain to have to tell every person to join (since some don't bother to refresh the buddy list). With the chat, I can just tell everyone to join all at once. It may not be something huge, but it is a nice feature and I certainly don't mind having it.



i find it okay, but swearing filter must be patched now >_> engineer it's a bad word

BTW, I'm a PS360 owner, and yes (OH! THE ODD!!!) LIVE is WAY BETTER than PSN.

Regarding lag and stuff, to use P2P or dedicated servers is a developers choice, for example EA uses dedicated servers on BOTH platforms.

Regarding the SPECTACULAR text chat, it's useless like most of the people have explained, but I guess it's better to have that not to have it.

Also, LIVE supports MSN for the ones that don't already know.




Obviously multiplatform games that use host servers will have the same Lag. It comes down to the exclusives. LBP lags Resistance and Killzone dedicated.

Halo and gears? i dont no, but by the sound of it they have dedicated servers now. As you said. Thats what the LIVE costs are for.
