Please Improve the Chat System

Supercell please make some improvements to the chat system. Any half way decent clan has to use a 3rd party program to communicate properly. Some strong features that in game chat is missing are:

- Copy/Paste
- Spell Correct
- Intelligent Voice Text
- Larger text box
- Whispers
- Personal Messages

I mean the list goes on. The in game chat system is as basic as they come. It would really be nice to not have to use a 3rd party app just to communicate with clan members in a game where communication is key to success. Thanks.

I would like copy and paste. Anyone with half a brain does not need spelling correction. Dictation is kind of stupid. Larger box, maybe. Whisper, maybe, but that would be hard to implement. And aren't personal messages the same thing?

Spell correction isn't necessary for people with less than half a brain. Typing on touchscreen sucks. Suggestive spelling can help greatly with typo's and greatly improve user experience.

It would be amazing if two opposing clans could talk to each other without having to spell it out in walls or clan descriptions.

However, I guess we are too afraid of thin skinned people possibly bursting into tears if they hear harsh words.

It is more likely to lead to jerks trolling the other clan and being rude. Why do you think there is no such features in the first place? :rolleyes:

I would love copy and paste and a larger text box.. That would be awesome

im not sure that you will ever take away the necessity for a 3rd party communication app tho.. Not without a huge amount of rework, and frankly I would rather they concentrated on the game itself rather than putting their efforts into becoming a chat app that is already available elsewhere..

Obviously some restrictions could be put in place, also, a friends list would be nice. And only allow friends to whisper or send PMs. There you have it. Troll and Spam problem solved. SC can I have a job?

1: Spam Bots
2: No need
3: Too lazy to type?
4: Are you blind?
5&6 : PM in this game are you srs??? Have you seen the thirsty idiots in global? You want to give them a tool to harass players? Even in clans PM are a dumb idea, why? because the game is free and no one gets banned so people just love to troll, can you imagine 3 staring a kids base then getting spammed by angry PMs?

If you need a 3rd party app to plan, you're doing it wrong.

SC should get rid of global and replace it with something useful to recruit people. Global is 100% garbage.

1. Just mute/ignore spam bots, right? 2. Would be helpful, especially when mates don't getcha. 3. Could be used to PLAN OUT a war attack. 4. Idk why. 5/6. Like OP have said, just be able to PM friends.

Just use outside applications for your war planning stuff. SC will be too lazy to change their chat system.

This is why you get Android instead of Apple in order to get copy/paste...

Supercell would probably do so in the future, but its chat system still won't be as decent. Besides some of these are already available.

Personal messages or private messages.

I agree with the personal messages. That is a much needed new addition SC should think about. I would love to inform members before booting them out of my clan. Perhaps if they received a Private message they would understand and increase their donations etc... to stay in the clan.

Personal messages

Personal messages were already ruled out.
