I agree that this game isnt as much about community building as others... And Anet doesnt need it to be, since there is no monthly fee they do not need it. GW1 was the same way. This is not EVE, they don't need to retain players for 10 years +, they just need you to buy the box, buy some in game $$ stuff, and leave.
Whats funny is the two most successful (western) MMORPGs dont have global chat (well EQ does now but it was added when it was well past its prime, but WoW still doesn't have one)
Oh and I am all for a global chat but they would need to be liberal with their use of banning people from talking in it because theres so many people and global chat gets spammed easily.

yeah GW2 needs a global chat because its just not the same without seeing 5 thousand trolls spamming the same nonsense the whole time while i play.
