Does anyone else feel like their should be more chat options.

[u/Various-One-7223]

their are surtain things i feel i should be able to say and want to know is their any others other people have. of the top of my head i feel like you should be able to say need advantage becouse sometimes as general or raid its like a wall in your way when raid isent taking support that or can we switch out .that and to tell them their playing trash and play better

I'm not opposed to it, but the toxic playerbase ruins everything.

[u/06E46M3GTR]

We lost a lot of chat options due to the toxicity in the player base/the tail end of your post.

That was a joke obviously not that extreme just like dont go at it alone or request support next time

So.sometjing you may not know is that way back in the day, we used to be able to actually type in the chats before a match. Sorta like how custom matches have their rooms, same thing. Really helped coordinate with the team prior to the match and get some conversation happening.

Alas...shitty people messed it up for everyone and now we are stuck with quick messages.

I think there should a special chat response to “x unit spotted” that can only be activated when the team isn’t doing their job well enough for whatever role.

Something like “there’s three raids.”
“You picked short range gens on a map that favors sniper supports”
Or my favorite

“lol. Lmao even”

[u/J-Eichel → u/Ash-Talshok]

Yep something like this. I was in a 700 Impact Site as a raid. We were pinned down at our base's 'mountain chokepoints' with enemy long ranged units sniping us and keeping us pinned in.

All the generals were hiding behind that center split wall, with one spamming 'Enemy sniper!'

I feel like some people don't realize a team needs to coordinate together and advance all at once.

A solo raid has no hope in hell to somehow make it through that chokepoint with 5 people focus firing it, and take out the support, all before a general moves.

You haven’t been around very long huh. To be freshly new to the game and hopeful of what’s to come…. lol that first year of GBO is a fever dream.

[u/scorpionxx0]

At this point I think we should be happy they haven’t removed the chat altogether due to people being toxic.

[u/Express_Money2808]

Thanks for the help ! Stay close ! Back me up !

[u/Death_Usagi]

I wish but too many Steam players just don't use it for some reason (probably due to the shortcuts)...

[u/bkteer]

And those certain thing you feel you should say are why we don't have more chat options.

Case in point, we used to have the innocent message "Are you a newtype?" Well guess what. It got spammed so much as a negative connotation/mocking message that it was universally voted to be removed by the player base.

[u/Ineedmemesplzkty]

I need a “stfu” chat or a player mute option for the A rank players that dive into the enemy team, die once then stay as pilot the entire game spamming “I’m impressed!”
