The spades thing is pretty cool.Whats not cool is if your able to private chat or even talk during the games.Makes way for a lot of cheating.Would definitly be interesed in purchacing this game as long as there is no private chat.Highly unlikely.I guess its mostly for singleplayer huh?

good point... i only have the demo, but that would ruin the game... if u were only able to hear the other team that might be ok, or in between games...

yeah,Want the game dont want it to be full of cheating.(bump)

I see the concern. I'm an advid spades player, love the game and in some ways I grew up playing it. I don't condone "table-talk" and definitely not talking in private chat rooms.

The best thing to do (if you still want to enjoy the game) is to make the game enjoyable by talking to those in the game.. it helps to ensure there is someone there. Find people you feel you can trust and add them to your friends list.

You can add me (SVC KoldFuzion)... Although I talked in private chat during a game last night with someone not in the game....only to let him know when it was almost over so he can join up.

There ARE some good honest players out there... just have to find them.

Does anyone actually have the full game?Can you private chat. Looking forward to spades!

yes people can private cheat.Z(chat)

i have the full game,

i mostly play with friends only i do with the general public, but usually the game is played too fast for any table talk, most rooms im in everyones always talking, but u can switch private chat channels pretty fast.

fun game tho all in all. not too many cheaters...

Not only is cheating possible, it is rampant. Worse, if you don't table talk, you are the bad guy. There should be tables where the person that sets up the game can boot people who table talk. It should be known before you enter a game whether or not it is a cheaters table or a good spades game.
