I too have felt the need to chat after a game.

most likely in multiplayer you will be close enough to talk to your opponents...

Unless you are using internet, in which case there is AIM, MSN, Yahoo, etc.

I agree with moveit124. I've played multiplayer online with some people and its hard too look up from the game and type something to another player on an instant messenger. warfare is a game where you cant stop for anything or else you get a huge setback. if there was a little button in there that could bring up a tiny in-warfare-messager, it would be very easy and wouldn't waste as much time as going to your computer. possibly even pre-set messages could be set.

You kids just want it all. Actually I just don't think moveit wants to get out of bed so he can access his pc. Very Happy

I personally don't want to give up any of my screen real estate or processing power to add chat. Who wants to chat during a game anyway. It is after the game that it is fun to chat and debrief about who had the best moves, etc. And most people find typing on their pc much easier than on the palm.

We are always available on Yahoo and AOL Instant Messengers when we are hosting games at our house. We often have 2-5 windows open chatting with different people at the same time.

Ok, some taunts would be nice then. Like "Good job" or "That wasn't smart" or something like that.

I agree: I think chat is impractical. I don't think it would enhance WFI enough to be worth it!

Then they should at least add an option to hide the warfare app for a few seconds so we can go get AIM on our PPCs to chat. Right now we can't hide.

Yeah like a minimize button would be nice for that... right now there is no way to hide warfare and it would be real nice if there was.

Um to access chat you would probobly have to pause or something, which disrupts the whole game, so if you chat durring game play you will miss things due to the fact that things grow too quick because otherwise the game would be boring, and you would have to type the message and that wouls take long,

however,
I think maybe if you could hit a tiny button to bring up a pop-up menu where you could quickly choose something and continue and your way, the choice would then make the other persons palm say something like yourgoingdown (as the palm sounds like), retreat, pull back, charge, or something like that

Yeah that would be just fine with me just as long as there is some kind of communication... taunts on yim is good stuff like that no pictures would be just fine with me and i dont think that would make much of a difference in your connection
