Chatting with your team is impossible! (kinda)
So many people already know that chatting with your enemies without the pinging system; just actually speaking with them, is just so scuffed. And I'm not only talking about the poor voice chat quality which has been bad for the whole time this game has been out, no: the text chat aswell: like the amount of characters you get per chat is just pure chaos, and if no-one else is gonna talk about this, I certainly will. Because for a long time, of just talking with my team trough the text chat if I have, say died or something, I can only write like 20 characters per message, and that's it (The amount I just mentioned might not be true, but it's still painfully small...). It's very annoying when constructing a message about anything basically, you get interrupted with the weird sound effect, as you realize that you have reached the ever-so tiny character limit on the chat... Then you have to send it and start writing again, and then you cross the character limit again, send it, then start writing another message about the same subject, over and over and over again...
BUT, that's not it: You see, as we non-english people know; all of us might not use the traditional english keyboard layout, and are used to our native language keyboards. But as it seems, they don't like us having our native language keyboards: As I'm an estonian, I use the estonian layout, wich means that some of my characters are in a different place and what not, but even though i have the estonian keyboard layout set in my settings, whenever i go on Apex, it just magically changes over to the english keyboard. And oh my god is it annoying just sending a message, like a question or something and all the characters are just wrong, like for example: here's a typical question asked by a person who doesn't know what else to say, written from an estonian keyboard layout: "You come here often? : )" But when I jump into Apex, it just changes whatever non sense I've written into "You come here often_ >/". Like it switches out my ? and _, the : and > and then just mixes up everything else like a salad you've just put in a bowl... Yes i know that i can change the language by pressing the windows key and space, but Jesus is that annoying! Wouldn't it be better to let people use whatever they're used to?
And yes I'm going to include the voice chat here aswell, even though they TRIED to fix it in season 3, but it's still so laggy, and most of the time you don't hear anything else coming back as an anwser but "What? I didn't quite catch that.". Like don't be afraid to use another games' code for the voice chat or whatever you must to make it better, this is just so painful! I sincerely hope that you catch this post and change the things I've mentioned in the nearest update maybe? And I'm not the only one complaining about this by the way! I know I'm not! (Long post but if you made it to the end, congrats!)
