Microsoft schafft den privaten Chat in den Games ab?



Laut neuesten Informationen will Microsoft die Option des privaten Chats abschaffen. Die Spielehersteller wurden darum gebeten, diese Funktion in den Spielen zu unterbinden. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 ist das erste Game, in welchem der private Chat nicht funktioniert,während man im Multiplayer spielt. Man muss den Game-Chat nutzen um nicht die Möglichkeit zu haben, nach einem Kill die Position der Gegner verraten zu können.

MS forcefully removes private chat from upcoming titles

Do you like to use the party chat option on your Xbox 360? Well, if you do, you may soon find yourself being forced out of using that option. Microsoft appears to be offering developers the option to negate the private chat option the Xbox 360 offers.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will force players to decide whether or not they'll play the game and join the game chat, or choose to stay in a private chat and not play in the multiplayer game. The private chat feature became a way of telling other players of enemy locations after being killed.

Such a feature shouldn’t detract from the overall online experience much, but there will surely be some gamers who won’t like the type of feature being implemented. With some gamers only using the private chat to talk to friends while playing different games, this will likely pose a problem for them.
