 why on earth would you guys take out text chat!?? 

Every multiplayer game on PC has some sort of text chat.  Thats like a basic in at least pc multi player.  not everyone has a mic, and even for some who do, they shouldn't use it cuz it sounds so bad

There was no reason to take it out so please add it back in

[Piarath]

I would just like to add that the option to use text chat, at least, would be nice to have; please.

[OSPete]

Agreed, there's plenty of room on the screen for 4-5 lines of text in it.

[KiraTsukasa]

Not EVERY PC game has text chat, but all the good ones do. So yeah, it should be there.

What?? The full game still doesn't have text chat??

They even removed the control in the options.

Goddamit. The only improvement I wanted to see in the full version. :/

[AveryChim]

I literally can't think of any logical reason to not put it in. It seems that they are just punishing people for not having a mic.

Maybe a week later we'll get the option as DLC...
Shoot... better not give them ideas...

Yea wth. Useful for screaming '10 seconds!' to make sure everyone gets back.

or 'STICK TOGETHER ^*&^*('

Seriously. It's at LEAST needed in the lobby to coordinate what game settings to use, class combinations, and whether people are actually sticking around for another game or not.

Especially since Origin doesn't even support party chat, so if you're playing with 3 friends you have no way of communicating with them in-game.

Voice chat is not a viable substitute. Not everyone has a microphone. Of those that do, many are garbage. The game also does not have enough settings to make sure that your microphone actually works (detection level, boost, test mode..)

This is a PC feature, thus it shall be ignored.

Along with FoV slider (I know theres a tweak), and one button does everything.

Please make it happen bioware!

[Sailears]

Seriously, no text chat at all???

In game I can understand because things are happening pretty fast and so mics are preferable, though I'd still ike to see it there as an option - doesn't take more than a few of seconds to type a short sentence.

But in the lobby I think it's absolutely essential.

lame lazynes

[ZweiImpulse]

As far as i can see, laziness to code this for the PC is the only reason i see for them not adding this in.

[Adugan]

Wow, that is terrible.

Or just for common courtesy...

"Sorry we just finished a game..."
"Yeah he's afk for a few mins..." 

For people without voice... Which is pretty much EVERYONE! ... They might have a mike but for different reasons people don't use it.

Just here for a +1

Text chat is must-have. I know it didn't work in the demo, and can't believe it "disappeared" in the full game... like it was an acceptable option or something.

When we asked about there being a keybind for text chat that did nothing, they told us it would be fixed in the full game

This is not the fix that we were hoping for..

Amputation... It's a good fix for anything wrong with a limb...

Don't understand why that went outta fashion. I allways liked minimalism.

[SmokemJags]

Because you can't type on a console.
Business decision. *shrug*

[Piarath]

A poor business decision. The game isn't cross-platform so the fact that you can't type on a console really has no bearing on wanting a text chat for our PC game. It was already in the demo, so nixing it out of the PC version of the game doesn't seem like a business decision at all. At least, not a good one.

A good many of us own the game on the PC, and while I wouldn't deign to speak for the majority I feel I can safely assume most of us would like the text chat. As a backup when all else fails, if nothing else- it just seems good business to ensure your multiplayer has as much communication ability as the platform allows, and for PC that's a text chat.

I'm positive we're not asking too much there.

[az350z]

"Business decision" is NOT correct. Why would they add antialiasing and other (though certainly not extensive) options? Why the hotkeys, the different "shift"-layout, why all the work to integrate Origin and associated matchmaking? They did do extra work for the PC version, and why text chat is suddenly missing...... I wish I could think of a reason.

[Kia Purity]

Hi, I'm deaf and I was HOPING for this feature to be fixed so I could use text chat with my boyfriend and friends.

What the hell, Bioware? How do I even try to communicate with them in the game? D:
