Text Chat Not Working
In game when I press T to open the chat, the chat opens but when I try to type nothing happens. It works sometimes, but mostly doesn't and it's really fustrating.

EDIT: So chat and SHIFT + TAB (Steam overlay) both work for a about 10 minutes and then they stop working. If I click on the DLC button on the menu, the steam overlay is "forced" open but I can't close it. Text chat pretty much the same as above it works for about 10 minutes then just stops. I can open it with T but text input doesn't work. (Can't rename classes either or anything.)

Anyone got a solution?

Yep, I've also noticed when my chat decides to stop working; I can't name classes or paint jobs etc. It's like text keyboard input is completely disabled but still works for game controls (i.e WASD, Space, Shift, etc)

pls fix ;-;

I'm still having this problem almost 1 year (all but 2 months) later. It's very annoying.

Try a clean boot. {LINK REMOVED}

if it works then suddenly stops working after 10 minutes, it sounds like there is a software conflict on your machine.
