Hi everyone, Wanted to let you know that thanks to Rakenra we now have a Discord channel: discord.gg/HQx2XhW Discord is flexible and very easy to use, for the most part. Its probably what we will use for in game voice chat. Anyway, go check it out and get familiar with it. Townsendvol EDIT: Click the [Discord] button on the menu to be connected directly.

IM is great for getting things done quick but once it rolls off the screen its pretty much gone. (Hence the shoutbox)
I do like discord for in game voive chat though. Ill have to log in and see how its set up.

Awesome! I was hoping we would get a discord. This will be very helpful especially if any of us end up needing help in game. I may not like PvP but if I have PC access and you call for help on Discord, I'll be on my way.

Xurique I didnt know about Discord either until Ashes came along. However it is awesome for chat via message or voice. Rakenra spent hours helping me lastnight via the voice chat.

Also its not only for PvP but also for PvE, we set up channels for both. So if someone is out gathering or crafting and they get jumped they can instantly ask for help. I am super excited about it and all the potential.

Yeah I have used a few different things in the past, I think they were mumble(Maybe) and ventrillo? Does that sound right? I have never been a big voice chat person except in Eve Online where it was really necessary. However for this game I intend to be, just makes us so much more flexible and quick to respond. Not to mention I think if we didnt use it, we would be at a serious disadvantage. If anyone in our guild is uncomfortable with it that is also ok, but the intention is to get everyone comfortable with it. Also just to be clear wont be on it all the time but certainly for certain types of operations or events. I would be surprised if everyone in this guild had not used voice chat in one game or the other.

Ofc there are always those who lurke around and listen talk sometime But for example the guilds raids dungeouns pretty much need everyone to talk ^^ or atleast listen to those leading the battle! Im shy in the start after that no probs ^^ i guess tha Dcord site has mute options and so on so u can still be in it but not listening to voices and so?

Hi Xurique, Yep there is the ability to mute and I am certainly fine with people who are not comfortable doing the voice chat thing, I understand. I think by the time we get to the game, we will all be super comfortable with each other. That's the hope anyway. I truly want us all to be friends.

Yeah it would only be chat, no video because we would be in game probably. So feel free to run wild in your boxers. lol We just don't need to know that when we are talking with you.

Sorry, only fully clothed people in the chat. Even showing ankles is enough to get banned from the voice chat.
Infact, our presance is so bright, you may be required to whear sunglasses just to chat with us.
