"/" commands
 

Are there "/" commands for things like whisper, reply...etc?

All I am aware of in this regard are Emotes

Aye, what Zep linked you is probably what you're after.

There's also /event to tell you what events (if any) are going on.

Ok, so you are in game and a friend sends you a "whisper". You click the f key, then click the friend tab if it isn't open. Then click the freinds name, click whisper then you can type message. You also have to close the other windows open on your desktop. Game needs a /reply command to open AND close the whisper chat. We also have to close the whisper window to do other chats. And have to repeat the process to answer another whisper.

Yea you have to do it the long way :[

"/" comandes
 

can someone post things u can do with tat plz and thz

Hi Blacksmoke.

Follow the link that Zep posted above. It is the definitive list of "/" commands. Aside from those emotes the only "/" command is to find out what event ("/event") is going on at the moment.

It really stinks that there isn't any / shortcuts for chatting to different channels (local, crew, guild, privateer). I leave feedback every time I log in about that. It'd be a whole lot easier to just type: /gu Hi Guildies! or /cr Ahoy Crew! ya know? Other MMOG's have these type of features. Don't need to click and point to everything.

^^ I kinda wouldn't like those shortcuts its long. Other one may save some more time.

How about just fixing chat to identify the people that can't hear me, in a different color? (Their chat line messages, at the very least!)

Yeah that's a better idea edward lol :]

Aye, we all agree that the chat could use some fine tuning.

/ Commands? Is that like TT? But i dont get in POTCO how you make a bubble chat, also like in TT.

To make the bubble message you just type a ... before you type anything. your message will be bubble over the top of yer head.

If someone sends a whisper, then perhaps we should be able to click on their name in the corner to reply. That'd be the fastest shortcut, yet it'd also be the easiest way to do so, as well as a way to reply to people not on your friend/crew/guild lists.

So far in other MMOs the way to talk to crew or guild is /guild or /crew or /group its not that difficult to do if your fighting or busy. In my opinion the whole clicking a tab to whisper is a tad bt more work. But hey, to each his own.

really? wow cool. I actually never knew that

Yeah its a bit easier then having to click on a tab. Or open up friends list. Oh and I forgot one more... Whispering is /tell (namegoeshere)

So they actually does exist? (Pardon the grammar.) Huh. Anywhoo, about that whisper one, seems rather tough: there happen to be a gazillion and two pirates with the same name often, if you picked one that came premade.

Lol yes they do. And it is easier. The only thing is with the other MMOs I've played you choose your server before you play, and theres no duplicating of the names. So thats how the whispering thing worked. Didn't think about that tho for POTCO. Guess Disney would have a tough time with that.
