Its simple and helps a lot. You run, open chat, and your character continues to run straight while you finish typing, close chat, and repress W

- @Srksii No dice! I already tried telling him that!
I used to have this issue, and then i used a mic. >.>
Seriously though,for those who can't mic chat for whatever reason this would be a great QoL improvement, no use typing if you're 500m behind your squad by the time your message is complete.
Either that or a bit more diversity to the ping system.
- @MandatoryIDtag Mics are surprisingly expensive here, I'm talking a entire months salary for a basic one, not branded, could probably find cheaper ones but you know how bad it is to have a teammate using a tin can connected to a nylon lol.
So yeah, +1 to having a better text chat for consoles (and the PC peasants I suppose 😏), and for heaven's sake put some duct tape on that speech to text option so it stays on instead of resetting every time I close the game... @Pretzelnutcake If one cannot afford a mic. One shouldn't play in general. It's a vey basic concept. Team dynamics i.e. playing with a mic is more prosperous than a ❤️❤️❤️❤️ lump than cannot.
I'm sick and tired of mutable teammates that provide nothing than worthless pings against a squad of chatty teammates.
Play offline if people are not your thing. USLESS!
- @ColdHours Are you joking? I hope so, because your logic makes NO sense whatsoever. Also I'm pretty sure the same thing can be said about people with mics who only use them to cuss at teammates for not teleporting across the map to grab their banner after xXKyleTTVXx who solo dropped died to the first squad he encountered, or the people blasting music/having arguments or whatever with people in the background with their mic plugged in even though they never use it in game for anything.
Having a mic doesn't automatically make a team of randoms a more competent unit that can wipe some dirty third world peasants trying to have some fun on the consoles they worked their ❤️❤️❤️❤️ off to afford, it just makes them more likely to verbally insult and accuse eachother the second things don't go baby smooth for them, so please get off your diamond horse before you get butt cramps your majesty.. @Pretzelnutcake I've bit my tongue on this subject long enough! It's not a joke. And if you cannot take the time and talk with one or two other people maybe you need therapy. And if one cannot afford a mic as it comes with the equipment maybe there should be no further gameplay.
It's 2020! Learn some basic elementary skills like teamwork or FO and crawl back to the hole one remains in.
Teamwork goes a long ways. More so than worthless pings from unsociable allies.
It gets tiring going against premades when one has to talk to a wall for any additional gameplays.
