Chat in the loadout menu

[ijones72(ninja08)]

Title. There needs to be a way in the loudout menu to chat without VC.
Its the most important part of the game, but its the one part we dont get communication with teammates on :)

If it's that important then I suggest you just use VC

I like to play without my headphones on. Even with headphones on, with the mic right in front of me, I rarely ever speak except on this one menu. and most teammates dont use VC so they cant reply back to me.
Not a solution.

Allow me to remind you that most people turn off VC entirely because nobody wants to hear people arguing in spanish or chewing doritos at max mic gain.

you can switch everything in your load out (well not your armor) it's R if you're on PC to switch between your strategems and gear. dno what it is on ps5

These devs took the text to speech from launch and broke it so it is useless.

At this point I think they are leaving in the trash UI/buggy UI when it comes to mission prep on purpose as part of operation "Posting how horrified they were people were already winning hard mode"

You can switch your personal weapons AND armor in the pre-mission strategem menu, I do it all the time. There's an obvious prompt to change between strategems and personal equipment right there.

They might have thought it was a broken button prompt like how planet effects and Q for briefing are broken when you reinforce on missions.

God, imagine if "There is a button prompt!" was an actual reliable statement. in this game. It would mean I could open the map to pin dropped samples while dead instead of just having the TAB button on screen mocking me too.

There should be chat in all screens. You should never NOT be able to chat, especially when you can use voice during loading screens.
