in-game text chat

[restive hemlock]

it feels weird not being able to laugh or type stuff like "wtf" after something crazy happens and you are playing solo

I really want the ability to apologize when I accidently throw or kill a teammate who is a random on 2v2s :')

[wise oriole]

i killed 2 times in the same play with grenades my teammate and i feel so bad

accidently

[restive hemlock]

😭 ikr not being able to chat hurts

[floral wharf]

i say an emote wheel for like pre-set pop up messages would be nice

[restive hemlock]

id rather text, but at the minimum that would be cool

[opal wigeon]

text would be good with the option to disable chat and pop up wheel in case their text is disabled

[floral wharf]

we all know it would become far too toxic

[runic wolf]

Having a chat filter, or even just the option to turn text chat off entirely would completely circumvent that. Devs could even have text chat off by default so that its an opt-in sort of thing instead of opt-out.

I agree with the emote wheel to prevent lots of spam popping up

We were thinking about this for a while and emojis sounds great but you can use hem ironically, it happens a lot in games like Rocket League and it feels... Itchy hah

[radiant solstice]

i mean, theres no game out there without any sort of mechanic that can be used bad, if u can teabag then ppl will surely do it

[blazing trout]

hub chatting with your team mate

[peak tulip]

even just team chat would be a nice addition

[floral wharf]

something as simple as being able to give someone a 👍 after a match would be nice.
Either your teammate or the enemy, and then you can see how many thumbs up you've collected on your profile tab or something. could add up towards a rep meter showing your an honorable player who doesn't rage quit or be scummy.
If you ever implement a report feature there reputation can go down for poor sportsmanship.
Kind of like a little meter like this next to player names or something. https://r2dcredit.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Credit-score-vector-with-the-pointer-close-to-Good-reading.jpg

As someone whose seen the range of the worst communities to the best communities in gaming, I respect the choice to minimize communication, and wouldn’t have a problem if you never added any form of it. However the above idea is also interesting, since it is a system mechanic that could be solely used for good, and not bad, and they’re are many other mechanics that could be made similar to this I imagine. Whether you’d want to develop them into your game or not is totally fair, but you guys seem to like your growing funny number, from your matches played counter, to your win streak counter, it seems to make sense to me there’s also a social rep counter. But I also think your current philosophy towards it is really good for maintaining the health of the community (I’ve seen there’s a lot of league of legends people among our ranks)

Yeah you are right! We should think about an exclusive positive approach

i think it'd be cool to also have a pose / changeable stance animation as the game begins. nothing crazy but adds flair.
