Title: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Llava on February 04, 2005, 11:09:23 AM With Global Chat on test and likely to go live in the near-ish future, are there plans for an f13 channel? It is cross server and all, so anyone but those playing on the test server can join in.
Do you guys want to do this? Title: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Mesozoic on February 04, 2005, 11:10:51 AM Yes?
I'm in. Name is "Violence" on Liberty, if it matters. Title: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: eldaec on February 04, 2005, 02:23:45 PM Sounds sensible.
Your global chat handle is your forum name btw, unless you set it to something else, and it is persistent across all alts. Title: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Xilren's Twin on February 04, 2005, 02:55:38 PM Sounds good; sometime the battle for great justice can seem a little quiet.

Title: the Bat-net is now live Post by: eldaec on February 11, 2005, 02:27:29 PM The Bat-net is now up and running.
I've just set up a chat channel. Following the Bat Country motif, the name is 'Batnet'. To join, first activate global chat on your client with... /chatbeta 1 Join us with [EDIT: command below corrected].... /chanjoin Batnet Speak with.... /send batnet wibble-wibble You can of course switch to default speech on Batnet if you wish. The channel is public for now, if we need to it can always be made private. Go wild. Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: eldaec on February 11, 2005, 04:28:02 PM Posts on the main forums are reporting that...
1) Underscores in chat names cause general funkyness - but in a bad way. 2) Certain combinations of button pressing in the chat menus can cause the client to crash. 3) You need to type '/chatbeta 1' every time you log on. Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 11, 2005, 04:31:27 PM I don't understand any of this. Please explain and type slowly. I'm thinking of resubbing so I can play dress up again.
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Llava on February 13, 2005, 02:59:30 AM I don't understand any of this. Please explain and type slowly. I'm thinking of resubbing so I can play dress up again. Global Chat is a cross-server chat that is being introduced to CoH. It's still in beta. Using this, we can set up a channel for F13 folks and all listen to each other's rantings as we bonk badguys' heads together. Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 13, 2005, 09:02:04 AM Thanks, Llava. For some reason, I didin't see this on their website. D'oh! I couldn't figure out what everyone was talking about. I finally found it yesterday, though. I think my browser was having an IE moment or something.

Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Viin on February 15, 2005, 06:04:48 PM Is this global channel stuff working for anyone? I keep getting a message that it's down and I've been trying on and off for an hour..
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 15, 2005, 06:43:23 PM It's always been down when I try, too.
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Llava on February 15, 2005, 07:17:28 PM And lo, I bring answers from on high.
Quote We found a crash that only happens for certain kinds of messages, made a fix, and hope to have it up again soon once QA signs off on it. You may be wondering, "If it's beta, why does it need to be QA'd?" QA almost always checks even the most minor fixes to make sure we didn't do something stupid like make every member of the "kill skuls" forum an admin or something. Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 19, 2005, 11:07:28 AM Has anyone got this thing to work?
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: schmoo on February 19, 2005, 01:31:47 PM Has anyone got this thing to work? It's working now. Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 19, 2005, 01:36:12 PM No it's not. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? You can only join channel 1, correct?
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 19, 2005, 01:44:32 PM Nevermind. I was doing it wrong. No one is on Batnet anyway, I don't think.
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: schmoo on February 19, 2005, 01:48:39 PM Nevermind. I was doing it wrong. No one is on Batnet anyway, I don't think. Heh, I was until a minute ago.

Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: Signe on February 19, 2005, 04:58:01 PM It suits you. You are adorable!
Title: Re: f13 Global Chat Channel? Post by: eldaec on February 20, 2005, 03:42:54 AM No it's not. Maybe I'm doing it wrong? You can only join channel 1, correct? You can join/create up to five.
