Ability to Disable chat

[Kai]

So I've been asking wargaming for this for years but who would like to see a way to 100% disable chat in game? No private messages, no clan messages, and nothing but hotkeys visible in battle.

Maybe to block private messages from people would be alright.

But I doubt they’d add an option to block in-game chat since then if someone had a good plan (which no one usually does) then you’d wanna be able to hear it, and you couldn’t see which bases everyone’s going to in Supremacy.

Public chat was disabled for many months at one point and you could only chat with team. It cause such an uproar and loss of player base they had to turn it back on.

Why do you need private messages and such disabled? You don't get them during battle and can simply ignore them otherwise?

if you die early, you can press the "esc" key on your keyboard and then return back to your "garage" and then choose another tank then queue for a match.

Actually Bert, you would see what bases in supremace because they are bound to hotkeys by default. BellatorMonk, I'm not referring to a MANDATORY rmoval of chat for ALL players. I'm referring to players having the OPTION to toggle chat off entirely so as to play the game without having to actually associate with anyone or haveing to ignore messages, I'd rther just not get them at all. Greystripe, I know that, that also has nothing to do with what my post was about.

[graystripe]

it does, though.

that way you won't have to see all those in-game chat toxic messages that your team mate or opposite team is writing.

i have seen such people before, they are totally very arrogant, conceited......etc.

when they get killed, they start to scold everyone in vulgar language.

they totally forgot this proverb

"there is always someone better than you"

and they totally forgot that WOT blitz is a teamwork and team play game.

Not One Man Show game at all.

It doesn't though in the fact that the hotkeys still allow for team play. Its not about the toxic messages they send after they die it's the fact that I'd just rather not have to see ANY chat, not just in battle chat. Thats why I said an option for the player to toggle themself insted of a total removal of the chat system.

yes we know, believe me thousands of players have asked the devs/staff for this, but they don't listen to players they just do what they want. Instead they throw in useless honor systems, the new parts mechanics, everything that NO one asks for. They ignore what we do ask for, they throw in what ever they want that makes no sense. Typical WG.
