    Chat and Voip issues

    So first off the text Chat system is very very bad. Most times the text chat would not even let me type anything. I could only text chat while in a group. The area chat seemed to be turned off or something. Their was no indicator if this was on purpose or not. I would hope that we could text chat to people around us in the group areas like the DZ. Even if its just to friendly agents and not rogues. We need a way to communicate even if not in a group.

    How the text chat functioned was terrible. I have to hit enter. type a message. hit enter then hit esc to get out of the text box. We should not have to hit the extra key. Every game I've ever played lets you hit enter type message enter and its done. You can continue running or shooting. With this I kept seeing WWWWWWWWW in the chat as I tried to run right after typing a message.

    All the extra key presses need to go. This goes for the chat and all the menus in general. Way to many key presses and holds and confirms. The keys do not seem to be standardized like most games use either. I've never seen TAB used to destroy an item. Why do I have to click an item hold tab to destroy then confirm what I got. Since we can mark items as favorite to block destroying, we should not have to hold and then confirm as well.

    The Voip was hit or miss. Sometimes in the DZ I could hear other players talk. As soon as we grouped up, I could no longer hear them. I could see the voice visual que above their head but could not hear anything. Sometimes they could hear me sometimes they could not.

    Area Voip should work so you can cooperate with other agents. Group Voip should defiantly work since its way to hard to type while running and getting shot at by rogues.

    No one else had an issue with how the chat system worked? Or the Voip that cut in and out?

    I think the UI issues like chat and all the ridiculous button holds and presses and confirms should be and can be fixed by release. Much easier then the subjective feel of how hard the game was.

    The UI and how the game functions is very important.

    Very helpful. If you could read their were issues with the voip as well. The point of a beta is to find issue that need to be fixed. Stupid comments like yours do not belong in any real testing environment.

    But thanks.
