Notification when Dev are in global

So often it happen i miss when a dev is online,cause i am playing and not reading global, it would be nice to see a notification similar as when someone ascend a mythic

It could be a special color

“Kafka is in the house” or anything else :slight_smile:

On ps4, their posts show up in a different color and their accounts are marked as “dev” . So, I’ll often see a dev post pop up and it will grab my attention, then I’ll jump into chat to see if anything interesting is happening.

that make sense for some reason i don’t see every msg all the time cause im busy playing , maybe include a special sound? :slight_smile:

I don’t know. I find even just having the chat messages pop up on my map screen to be really annoying (and often I play with the sound off).

Knowing that they’ll be in there once in a while, I’ll just open chat for a second or two and quickly look for a dev account when I’m playing in the evenings, but I’m not sure how much more they can do.

I think they like being invisible, so people don’t know to act like a dev is watching.

And to take that a step further, perhaps they don’t always want to be hounded with questions the second they log in…

Kafka is more cool then that she like to chat

Yeah I like to be a sneaky chat ninja! We do tend to get jumped on with questions, which is fine, but sometimes we just want to relax with you all and hang out. :slight_smile:

Lol

Maybe if they wanna chat or are answer questions they can put something similar to the little exclamation that tells us servers are experiencing downgraded performance? Even when i notice pink flashing on the map screen i don’t assume it’s a dev because some people use that color (and others) in global quite frequently. I’m happy the devs are secretly monitoring global because it’s kind of a dumpster fire more often than not. People couldn’t even be respectful when they knew a dev was present. I can see how new players could be turned off by it.

My Global chat only speaks Italian. It’s a local global chat.
