been playing with some alpha players running missions, mining and what not; many dont use comms and i was was thinking it would be pretty cool (and easier to coordinate) if when accepting a mission you could repost to them in a sort of third party way the mission objective.. for example a box comes up with the squad commanders picture similar to the new player experience tutorial agent (for all members of the squad) relating relevant info eg

[pic]
Message
"ok my agent wants us to [insert mission name] at [link location], all we have to do is [insert basic mission objectives]"
and a similar thing for when the mission is completed.

I was thinking this could be good for a mcouple of items like when u join a fleet (would have message of the day) for example.

CCP already provides chat windows and EvE Voice. Granted, EV sucks balls, but for small little pick up groups like that, it's something.

I have my own ts doesnt mean people will use it and doesnt quite add us into the game 'lore', were sort of apart from it playing inside it but seemingly not part of it or its lore if that makes sense?

Since you are in a fleet for this purpose you can do this already in the fleet chat. You can link your mission journal there, in which your compatriots fighting alongside you can see the objective and target area and you can word a message around it a la "We have to do this in that system. You find all the details as always in the attached mission briefings."

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

+1 as a person who spends a lot of time running missions with new players this would be nice.

Since this can already be done, and there is no "advantage" against another player to be gained from this why not make it a single mouse click feature to publish the mission journal into the fleet chat?

So adding a drag to the single mouse click makes it too much effort?
