OMG! What happened to emotes?!

When NPC's talk to you, it no longer shows up in local chat either.

Like when the shipwright tells you "Back to Pludering" You see it in a chat bubble over his head, but not in local chat!

I believe that might have actually been intentional, to clean up the chat some.

And not only that, but even the emotes you CAN do just show you doing the action, and it doesn't give the "description" in the chat! For instance, /coin makes you flip a coin, but it no longer says "Jason flips a coin." The emotes were one of my favorite parts of the game, and I want them back, NOW! I filed a bug report about this, even though I have a feeling this is no bug.......

That however, is probably NOT supposed to have happened, and can be blamed on disney for releasing this update well before they knew it was ready.

I'd cut them some slack - overall an amazing release. They fixed alot of things, I've never seen any MMO that had a release this big that didn't expose some other bugs when they rolled out new changes. There are some bugs that Disney would never find in test until they get the changes out to the live game - WoW and other MMO's deal with the same problem. Why? The population on test server can never match the amount of players on the live game.

The fix they're doing now will most likely fix this, or fix it in a day or so... I'm eager to see where the game will be in a few months once all these changes have finally settled... be patient.

Oh, I agree that this is a spectacular release filled with amazing features, don't get me wrong. Not trying to stick it to them on the negatives (I'm usually siding with them. -.^), just saying that I think they should worry less about sticking to a schedule of when they're releasing stuff, or if they have to atleast have a point to where they will delay stuff. It just seems silly to me to invite all those testers in to test it, knowing that it still needs work, and within a matter of hours of opening test to the masses send it to live.
