New Item: Perfect Horn UPDATE

The horn stuff is so annoying for me so I have stopped playing the game.
I only do MQ and WQ until there is a way to filter them out from squad chat!b:angry

I'm with the majority of people on this one. I do not want to see people's random messages in my faction, squad, or whisper chats. These are private chats, like Kephras said. If I wanted to read people's recruits, looking for parties, or WTB/WTS, I'd leave common chat on.

I think the higher ups in PW, just wanted to make a profit on people wanting to change colors on World Chat, I know someone does it and says funny things like "You have successfully used your exp to level your genie", and they will say it so it will show up green and people would freak out thinking it was in squad chat.

Anyway that's why I think that they made the perfect horns, because people still use Tele's..they either buy them, or buy packs to get tokens, or buy them from other players. And it sucks if you buy it just for the smilies because from what I see you cant use them just in faction chat, still has to be in the Horn chat area...which is everywhere.


But yeah.its annoying...I hope they have a filter by TW time because I don't want to see massive drama on WC and not be able to filter it.

along with a filter, I think certain colors should be excluded from it.. I mean the pink for example makes me think I'm getting a whisper as opposed to it being a horn chat..

ahhhhh "world" chat.....I wont say what I thought the "W" stood for b:chuckle

point is I dont care what they ramble on about ...... I can turn it off
please sort it out so this multi coloured nonsense is added to the correct filter

The general theory of Horn makes complete and utter sense; if you need to spread a message or sale/buy across all channels to attract a specific set of buyers/sellers etc, then yes do go ahead [no spam tho <_<] but come on... it does have it's limits. So far it's been pretty funny to watch, hasn't "really" bothered me all that much, although... I can sense the wave of immature lunatic fringe approaching as schools inch towards releasing the floods. O.o' Then it'll be super freaking annoying in Faction/Squad/Whisper/Trade channels. That aside I do see why PWE invented the device, as before mentioned - to reach all channels for specific/important reasons. WE'll see over time hopefully people will realize exactly the use of the Horn for it's main goal and intention. Or... the nutjobs will never cease their excitement and joy at being obnoxious. And we'll have to laugh it off. Sad to see/hear about great players leaving due to PWE's interesting devices and installments. We'll see, we'll see... b:bye

I wouldn't call this an 'interesting devices and installments' A general rule of thumb in online games is that if there is a feature, and no penalty to use it, people WILL abuse it, which is what is happening now.

There have been people spamming WC since it's inception, and as soon as people start buying more of these horns, there will no longer be a way to avoid this. Makes gameplay in a game where cooperation and teamwork are vital very difficult.

Ok, so...

Creating threads about the perfect horn is spam.
And that's an offence.

Spam is an offence? Cool.

I think I'll ticket every single perfect horn use. And I suggest everyone else does too.

Edit: Come on guys, you surely remember the complaints when you introduced the blank window no one wanted? SURELY you could see what would come of introducing it with spam in?

Although I must admit, the rate they're coming in at has slacked off greatly.

Firstly, why is another world chat option needed? Are there not more important things to do then make a horn chat?

Secondly, people go to squad and faction chat to get away from the tards using world chat yet we can with horns so faction chat, squad chat are now getting filled up with dicks using them for stupid reasons.

Thirdly, we should be able to choose if we wanted to listen to the **** on horn chat or not, yet once again we dont get a say and instead have to put up with it.

Fourthly, Why the hell is there a limit to the damn blacklist?

Lastly, remind me why this was even needed?

Kill the horns and sort some bugs out like RB instead, it wont bring you in as much money but i guarantee people will be singing your praises rather then saying how fail yet another idea is.

Frank, with all due respect
I don't care if it pops up once an hour, I don't care if it pops up once a day, I don't care if it pops up once a week, I don't care if it pops up once a month and I don't care if it pops up once a year.

The fact that I can't get rid of it is pathetic. Why the hell would you give us several chats if you will then give the people something to completely bypass that and just spam every possible chat?
And no, it won't settle "down". You were merely not on during the "rush hours".
Imagine after TW, before TW, during TW biddings. After an event, during an event. All that kind of **** which I and hundreds of other players do not give a **** about, now will have to either shut off the game or bear with the dozens of "Horn chat" users.

This is a very simple matter and has a very simple solution. Do not make it bypass the chat "filters". If I click on the "Squad ONLY" tab, I want to read my squad's chat ONLY.
I mean seriously, did no one in the office in Bejing or honphoeychanchan or wherever the main plans are written up, just stand up and go:
"Hm, Bob. Doesn't this idea kind of suck major donkey balls?"

You should've seen it when it was right before people went to school (American timezone) and you should see how it's going to get on weekends.
And knowing the people that decide on sales, guess what?
"Due to popular demand, Super Horns are now on sale!"

So yeah, do you just want to "hear" our opinions? 'cause obviously after the 20+ topics and the countless people complaining in game about them. If you STILL need to know what "most" of us think about it. Well, lets just stop right here before I say something that'll get me banned

I say filter it, it's very annoying. I will now reduce my playing until they filter it b:angry

Kanin

I don't get why we have to see random people's multi color spam and not have the option to turn it off while we are trying to read squad chat or guild chat or if we just want peace -.- There are many other ways to make money without bothering other players so much.

I think the people who brought out this feature forgot that while we do have freedom of speach we ALSO have freedom of silience! I say we should have the ability to at the very least filter out the childish garbage peopel post with these tools. This new "toy" is disruptive to squad chat which can lead to failing missions, adn needless deaths of squad members. If you ask me, it's just silly to force us to read all that rubbish. I think PWI will lose many players if they don't at least let us filter it out.

Note that people who have not previously posted on the forums are posting here to show there oppinion on this matter. For one I will continue to stick around here until I hear some kind of response.


Emergency mainterance would be justified in cases like this. Ficure something out: Lock them until the filter comes in or something

lol u said it, its all about the money

Which they're going to lose in the long run if these keeps disrupting people's experience playing.

Don't see a lot of long-term planning here in PWI.
