Communication

Overview[]

There are a variety of ways users can communicate with each other within the world of Smash Supreme to aid strategic play and a sense of community.
- Availability of certain communication may be limited to specific game modes.
  - Chat is not available during PvP battles, though emojis are!

Chat can be accessed via the speech bubble shown above; where the speech bubble is visible a form of communication is available.

Text chat is available within Smash Supreme during certain scenarios, those instances are as follows:
- Tournament pre lobby
- Whilst broadcasting
- Within a guild lobby/ general chat

Emojis are another way, much like chat, players can communicate with their opponent and/ or other team members.
- Due to the speed of PvP battles, Emojis are a fast, fun and effective way of communicating with another player.

Users can have up to 4 usable emojis at one time, these can be swapped and changed around in the customise page accessible on the main menu.
- Extra emojis (a method of communication) can be gained through the opening of crates within

the game.

Emojis are useable during at any stage within a battle and appear above a characters head.

With the formation of guilds, groups of players are able to discuss strategies, moves and planned battles in a private space.
- Within the guild chat, players can talk via instant messaging as well as posting emojis.

Players must first join a guild before they are able to view any guild communications.

Similarly to other video game broadcasting platforms such as Twitch.TV, Mobcrush and YouTube, users watching broadcasts through Smash Supreme will be able to communicate with one another via the on-screen broadcasting chat.
- Smash Supreme's broadcasting chat is in a separate instance to other broadcasting platforms and therefor viewing the game using this system means users CANNOT communicate with viewers from other broadcasting platforms.

Broadcasting can be hidden and made visible again at any time during a broadcast via the arrow toggle on the left hand side of the screen.

Special Emojis can be purchased using gems or opened in crates
Special Emojis can only be used during a broadcast by a viewer watching the broadcast via the mobile Smash Supreme application.
- Everyone viewing the stream will able to see special emojis regardless of the platform they are viewing the battle on.
