Guild Wars 2

The chat-system in GW2 works pretty well, as long as you only talk to one person or in a group. When people try to whisper with more than one person simulanously, you get a lot of “oops wc”.

We can ‘move’ a special conversation to another chat-tab. But my chat-window is way too small for all those tabs. It is a temporary solution, if you even would call it that.

GW2 is a wonderful game and is a MMORPG, so what is so difficult in creating a chat system? Other games have little instant-messengers, which even allow to talk with people outisde the game. Lineage II (NCSoft) is a good example for this.

Use the friendlist as it already exists. When we rightclick on the name, let us whisper in a special box that opens. We can close the box by clicking on the x or the _ and reopen it either with a shortcut or by simply clicking on the name of the person. When we talk to more than one person, we see a list of names on the left side of the box (vertical) and right of it, the chat-log where we can write in. The person we are currently talking to, is marked and we can just tab through name by name.

Or something like that. Use your creativity.
