I think some SWG Vets can remember the good ole fashion PvP in the old days. When one could kill another and converse with them. They always had friendly things to say. But now we see censorship in games like WoW and WAR. Will SWtOR stop this injustice?

We don't know, but in this game it wouldn't make sense to limit cross faction communication.
Young fool. Only now, at the end, do you understand. Your feeble skills are no match for the power of the darkside. You will pay the price for your lack of vision.

Sony Online Entertainment has been violating Koster's cardinal rule: you can add things to an MMO, but you can't take them away without ****ing off your players. They've done this repeatedly and even mass cancellations have been unable to teach them the lesson. -About Star Wars Galaxies

I think you need to be able to talk to the opposing side. Keeps them from feeling like a really smart AI vs a real human being.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let us talk to the opposing faction. It makes no sense to limit that in RP terms, and it cuts off half the gaming population! It's ridiculous.

Oh and did I mention: I HATE WoW.

EDIT: Damn! I voted the wrong choice. The wording on the poll is confusing.

Local chat should be cross-faction:
  • /say
  • /shout
  • /emote

But "comm traffic" should be "encrypted" cross-faction:
  • /tell
  • /zone
  • /world
  • /trade
  • /guild
  • /group

Now that's a idea!

Perfect. Means you can't /tell to cuss someone out after they kill you - but you still have the option to, just publicly - which will make you look like an *** and get you reported much faster.
