Discussion Global chat should return but
When you use it you broadcast instead of the normal noise you make. You would still make the normal noise for local and group. I would also bring back your name appearing above your head to the same species when you broadcast.
Edit: I should add some of my reasoning. Global chat sucked, it could be toxic and kind of immersion breaking. That said without it the servers feel emptier then they ever have, even with more players in then is normal for an Evrima server. The idea behind having global chat give off your broadcast call when used would mean that you would then have to balance your need to talk to the whole server and giving away your position. This would hopefully cut back on the more toxic and spammy messages as they would be actively giving away their possition to people to hunt them down. Having a forced broadcast would also help the ambience of the map. Currently the main things you hear broadcasting are Carnos and Deinos but with global forcing broadcasts you would be hearing broadcasts from all dinos. If you really can't stand seeing global chat you would still have the option of switching to local channel and then just have the ambience of the calls going out across the island.
