Ask Us Anything | Chat with Spacetime About Call of Champions

[Zylx]

We'll invite some of our most prolific PvP'ers into Alpha.

Including meh?

Another question, will there be an economy for anything in the game? You said there'll be no gear, so is there anything tradable between players? And are the champs going to be customizable? Facial/Body features? Vanities?

Currently the economy is all about XP and levelling your Champs. Nothing tradable, no customizations (at launch). This is all about player skill and competition.

Will there be any way we can communicate with our team we play? Like a voice chat? A lot of games have that option like Heroes of order and chaos (and generally almost every online gameloft game).

The game is all about responsiveness, so we are currently not thinking about using any bandwidth for voice. You'll be able to communicate outside of matches with Chat, and inside with Pings. We imagine serious folks will be using their tablet to compete, which frees up their phones to communicate with each other while not interfering with game performance.

This is somewhat disappointing. No chat in the matches takes away from the social aspect and slightly inhibits the learning and training of players while in a match. I would
assume it also hinders team play for some.

This should eliminate the majority of trash talking which can be good.

Since the matches will only be 5 mins maybe the chat won't matter as much.

I guess we will have to see.

You are right, it is a balance. No chat in the matches does significantly decrease the abuse and trash talk. And we will see!
