Maybe because this version of SAS4 is a copy to the Android version?
I dunno.
Because the Devs are afraid that people would say bad things that the Devs can't moderate.....

I'd be all for chat functions. I'd love to be able to say something like "stay here, I'm gonna go grab that box" or "Look out, there's a devastator with extra fast in that room"

I think the good it would do would drastically outweigh the bad

Well what if there's a extra fast, extra strong, savage, regeneration, dark minion,
chitinous hide, berserk devastator?

We could at least need 4-8 new chat message such as:
- Get back/Get to safety!
- Find the VIP, let's split out!
- Everyone stand on your ground!
- (Beginning of a certain types of games/mode)
- Alright, let's do this.
- This is it, get ready.
- Main objective is to Find the VIP/Turn on all the power generator/Get all the
survivors to safety.
Certain chat options for certain class:

- Heavy
- I'll take on the damage, you guys stay low.
- Get back! The cavalry is here!
- Here's the deal, I'll tank, you do you.
- I'll hold on to the zombies, get back!

- Assault
- You know the drill, I'll bring all the damage to 'em.
- Alright, I'll proceed to incinerate every zombies on my watch.
- Let's get 'em.
- Medic!

- Medic
- Who needs healing?
- I'll be there in a sec!
- I'm throwing in a zombie antidote!
- I need some help!

Though that many chat messages would be waaaay too cluttered for the mobile game. Would be Soooo much easier to just use text chat, and more personal and friendly

True, judging by SAS4's perspective, there's no way that these many text choices would even
fit the whole screen.

No, is cause the mobile players can't write anything

I linked the Statement above, that was made by a Developer

I learned the hard way that you should NEVER play "free" games on Steam. The purchases in this type of game are made in-app, and the money goes directly to the developer. The money never goes through Steam as a company. So if there is a problem, Steam will not do anything to help you. You can never get your money back and nothing will be done to make sure other people don't have the same issue. Steam purchase = safe. In-app purchase = not safe.

Ninja Kiwi, the developer of SAS 4 is a devious, profiteering deceitful company that is only out to trick you into making useless in-app purchases. I'm talking about $40 USD for some game money, advertised as "War Powers Funds". It's not even enough money to level up ONE decent gun ([black] gun). If you buy 10 loot boxes (also expensive), you are lucky to get 2 items that you didn't already have. One premium gun costs $40, almost the price of an entire AAA game! Games that typically have hundreds of playable weapons (CSGO).

You may be thinking, "haha I never pay money in free games". Good luck with that in this game. If you try to play with leveled-up players, who have purchased stuff, you will:
a. Die in one hit
b. Have to shoot a standard enemy 500 times too kill it
c. Have to shoot a boss enemy 60,000 times (literally) to kill it
d. Walk so slowly you don't even see what the other players are doing
e. Have to wait 5 minutes to respawn in multiplayer games. It is so bad the game will actually ask you, "Do you want to spectate or just quit?"
f. Never be able to win a multiplayer event e.g. Last Man Standing

I emailed Ninja Kiwi through their website with these, and many other issues with the game. They blew me off. They did nothing to help me personally, or to fix the problems.

Here is the typical player experience for SAS 4 (assuming you don't make purchases):

Learn how the game works -> Learn how the multiplayer works -> Learn how to level up -> Reach level 10 -> Beat all 7 maps -> Grind 50 hours to level up to 15 -> Get access to live online events -> Die instantly -> Grind and farm for another 100 hours to get level 35 -> Get access to nightmare mode -> Wait 20 minutes to start a game because the other players keep quitting the matchmaking screen -> Die instantly -> Grind another 50 hours to get level 50 (surely if I put enough time in, I'll make some progress!) -> Die instantly because you are matched up wth level 100 players -> Face the ultimatum (the developer's plan all along) of giving up the game entirely or making a purchase -> fight tooth and nail to beat a nightmare mission for 30 minutes, only to have your game freeze and shut down seconds away from finishing because the other players got bored and rage quit -> get♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥off because you wasted so many hours playing the game and were never able to play the way you wanted to play from the beginning... never able to get any elite augment cores, or black items, or get enough perk points (e.g. energy regen) to make a difference -> spend hours preparing a detailed list of 14 major problems with the game -> email the list to Ninja Kiwi support -> get blown off completely -> write a long, articulate negative review on Steam -> hope other gamers avoid the game, so that some good will come out of your countless hours of anger and frustration.

Short Version: SAS Zombie Assault 4 sucks.
