So this has probably been made but it would be a little cooler... or a little annoying. So I want your opinions if you think this is a good idea. I think its a good idea, but I don't know if you will like it. If you think this isn't good. Tell me why.
Suggestion
What if you went on Minecraft... and you saw a bar below "Multiplayer" saying "Contacts" or something. It would have all your Contacts (Friends or whoever you choose) on there and you could see which server their on so you can go on with them. I know you might be like "But little kids will be following me!", well only contacts will be able to see which server you are on. The "Contacts" thing on Minecraft might look stupid but, what if you had a friend on a server that got shut down. With "Contacts" you could just add them to your contacts and join the server that there on and you guys can meet each other again. I think this would be great to add to minecraft because then we could go on with our friends much easier. Mojang might even add messages, or chats with "Contacts" I don't know, but I think this would be a great addition to know when your friends are on. People would get on Minecraft to meet their friends. So they would get on Minecraft more. Thats why I think "Contacts should be added. It doesn't have to be called "Contacts" it can be called anything. Voice Chat, sounds stupid... but... if they do it on XBox why not on PC? Heres a couple of reasons why Voice Chat could be usefull: 1. Talking to people will be much easier. 2. There would be no such thing as people spamming the chat. 3. You can talk privately to your friend without saying "/msg [Friend Here] I need to tell you a secret". 4. Minecraft Videos on Youtube will look really cool, especially trolling videos. 5. We wouldn't need to use Skype anymore, Skype is too laggy when using Minecraft with it. 6. People would talk more and make more friends and get on Minecraft more to meet their friends. 7. More conversations would come up, and they would stay on longer and it could attract more people who love to chat to people on voice chat. Voice chat would be really cool! If theres an annoying kid on there, I think there should be a mute button for that. Hopefully. Well have you noticed people who play Minecraft on XBox love to talk with the headset. There could be like "Partys" but instead of Partys you could call it a "Group" or something, I don't know. It would be really cool to add people to talk on the mic. Now this is optional (This is not optional!) you don't have to say "Support" (You have to say "Support") it won't matter (I will kill you.), bye (Say "Support", now I have some people to talk to.).
I support the Contacts and some of the voice chat idea. Of course Skype/Minecraft lags when using Skype and Minecraft at the same time because they are both drawing from the internet, the addition to in-game voice chat would only make it SLIGHTLY less laggy since there is only one connection instead of two.
(P.S The only reason why Xbox has voice chat is because A. Mojang didn't make it, 4J Studios did and they decided to add it in B. Xbox encourages voice chat because typing was too slow on the xbox controller.)
I don't think that would happen... probably not because not everyone talks at once you know. Its not like someone comes on the server and just talks and says random things...
Do not be afraid to press enter twice between a paragraph. Do not be afraid of paragraphs either. It's difficult to read your thought when I get lost mid-way through and have to reread everything. Seriously, if I have this problem, chances are I'm not the only one.
Also: This thread is horribly redundant (like its one of the most suggested threads in the forum at the moment) and impractical.
While contacts wouldn't be a bad idea, voice chat would cause violent amounts of server instability.
