Where is the text chat!?!?!

[YUG_GEO]

How should I communicate with my teammates if there is no test chat in the game, and players in 95% of cases are not connected to voice chat? This is a game literally about teamwork, but what can there be teamwork without communication? Modern developers have reached some new level of idiocy in the fight against "toxic" players...

Mic push to talk hasn't worked once for me

Your mic is probably working but the indicator that you're transmitting is a little buggy right now. I was very confused as to whether people could hear me or not until I got to ranked and my teammates made it clear they can hear me EVERY time I use push-to-talk.

team work is optional, its mind boggling, you should be forced to join the voice chat channel and their needs to be text chat like, this is non negotiable

I agree they should force you into voice channel, and allow text chat, BUT they need to limit chat to your team only until end of tournament because otherwise, you could coordinate with the other winning team. Just make sure no one else get's a cashout after the first 2 teams score.

Considering absolutely no one uses voice chat, this argument doesn't work. I have yet to see a single person use it.

You have 8 hours played. I've had numerous games where people talk in voicechat, ranging from flipping out over me trying to communicate with them at all, to coordinating positions, locations of enemies, and setting up ambushes.

Saying "absolutely no one" when you have such a limited frame of reference is such an easy mistake not to make.

...because I have time to type essays in a fast paced game like that
