    Oh, God yes! Some people just love to write an essay and I can't fucking see where I'm going and it is really frustrating.

    Longer messages don't get bubbles....
     
  8. Neither do one-word messages. This would be a cool addition but it's not necessary when you can ignore annoying people and kick spammy ones.

    I don't want to ignore anyone, much less kick them for talking, I just don't want a pointless obnoxious bubble in my face. I'm surprised anyone would defend this.
     
  10. I find it annoying at times too but I won't be upset if it isn't added.

    What's awful is when you're having a tense battle with another knight and this builder guy running underneath you decides to start having a heated debate about the intricacies of Stalin's rule VS Hitler's rule and why he should be allowed to buy a gallon of gas for only a dollar but the american president is a communist and then his text bubble blocks literally half the screen and you can't see the battle at all and you get your ass kicked somehow because the other guy isn't obstructed by the text bubble since your teammate was using TEAM SPEAK and you literally smash your keyboard across your head and slam out in chat "HEY YOU FUCKING IDIOT YOU WANNA TAKE YOUR DISCUSSIONS TO THE FORUMS INSTEAD OF IN THE MIDDLE OF MY FIGHTS HUH?!" and he responds "Lol u mad?"

    Yes. Yes, I mad. If you're gonna block the fucking screen, have the decency to do it publically so both teams are inconvenienced, you wretched unaborted lump of bird shit.

    They should make more option buttons On/Off, they should focus really on option and graphics in this game. Like dissapear a names of players... don't tell me that there isn't any comand to remove teammates' names and health bars... and looot of things...

    Wait, why would you want those gone? Telling the difference between a teammate and an enemy tunneling under your base at a glance is a crucial part of the game. The names tell you it's a teammate, and lack of names tells you it's an enemy. And furthermore, a glance at an enemy's HP in the middle of combat can make the split second decision between running away, slashing, stabbing, or giving up because omg why are you fighting yagger seriously?

    Yes, there are a lot of things like these that need adding e.g. emotes, graphical features, always spawn as [archer/builder/knight], and most importantly controls.

    Turning text bubbles off is done in next version.

    (don't tell me that there isn't any comand to remove teammates' names and health bars) - there's a rules variable for this now too.

    (Emote rebinding is also done in next version via a config file - not hardcoding options for it because that's a waste of my time at the moment and it's better to have an example of loading client settings from file)

    Controls are able to rebound in settings.
