spent most of the day hung up with work, but I did get a chance to test out the latest patch this afternoon. I’ll have a full set of impressions for you, but I experienced the absolute best part of today’s changes within the first three minutes of my first game. I got a whisper from a friend who wasn’t in my game.
For those who don’t know, players used to be able to communicate from client to game and vice versa before Season One. When ranked play launched, though, the feature was taken away, and though I’ve heard several reasons, I don’t know for sure so I won’t speculate too much. Whatever the reason, it was infuriating to be alt-tabbing to get the Skype messages my friends had sent just to see if I was playing another game.
Those days are finally gone, and we can once again annoy each other with cross-game chat.
