I'm sure Bungie knows what they're doing - I just haven't seen much community discussion about the option for different chat channels. I for one would love the ability to switch between an open "Guild/Clan" channel, a direct 'fireteam/group' channel - and the 'local area' channel (for public events/PvP etc).
After looking at the [url=http://i.imgur.com/rKqaeOE.jpg]controller scheme[/url] for a while, this idea dawned on me.
The way it'd work, is instead of having your 'emotes' on all buttons of the D-Pad, they were moved to a single button (say left) which brings up a mini-menu of the available emotes (selected as they are in the linked controller scheme).
[i](More detail: "Left" brings up menu, which displays all available emotes relative to their D-Pad button; akin to how to the controller scheme shows them currently)[/i]
That enables the D-Pad to be used for a number (3, to be exact) of other functions (I wonder how the Ghost was 'called' - and also how the weapon was lowered/raised)
"Down" could be weapon lowering/raising; "Up" could call the Ghost - and "Right" could switch between the different "Chat Channels".
I'm not sure if you, dear reader, have used TeamSpeak/Vent/Mumble etc in a guild before - but it's often a great place full of people bantering away, organizing raids/PvP, or just chatting about their favorite TV show (Firefly FTW)
I know Bungie will [url=http://youtu.be/ryhU1Oe1lv4?t=5m15s]look after us[/url], but just figured I'd share my thoughts with anyone interesting in reading them
[i]Quick clarifications:[/i]
- By "area" chat, I mean 'public event/team' etc
- My entire idea focuses around using [i]voice[/i] chat, [u]not[/u] text/typing
