Can't use chat in battlefield 5
So i have been having this problem since BETA, i could use chat normally in the 2 closed alphas but since beta when i try to write in chat i can't send any message, i can write but when i send the me...
@GaIinha2, can you turn them off and see if it works for you after. đ
Also you don't happen to have a controller connected to the PC?

@EA_Atic I tried to disable everything you said, even xbox overlay and i still can't write in chat, and no i don't have any controller connected to pc :/
Hey @GaIinha2, can you try to do a CCleaner and then run a clean boot on your PC and after that try if that works for you. Also what keyboard are you using and what keybind do you have to talk in chat?

I had this in the beta along with many others which was reported here, so DICE never fixed the issue, not holding my breath for a fix in the main game.
Could be , my name is comedykev but ubisoft ban it because the word * in the middle.
All other battlefield games it's fine.
I still hold no hope that dice will fix it as they ignored all the other threads during the alpha and betas.
Edit: the word d y k e is also banned here on the forum.
Bump,so that the Devs can see that names are blocking the chat.
Wait... so it would be my gamertag that would cause this? If so, it should say it somewhere that you've been banned or something... I tried all the abovementionned fixes and it still doesn't work âšī¸ It's weird though because when I go back to Origin, it has an open chat window with the friend I'm playing with (but no text in it). If it's a ban for whatever reason, is there a way to see it somehow?
If that's indeed the case then it's quite the interesting bug you have found here. Something that could easily slip through Q&A I'd imagine. Hopefully, it gets fixed in one of the next patches.
same problem here, and it really... dumpens the fun in the game
cannot even say GG :D
This is a joke right EA? you was informed many times over the Alpha and beta that your chat was blocking people because of their names, and you have not only failed to fix it but failed to even acknowledge it.
Look at mine Comedykev,. it has D Y K E in it so you think it needs blocking, then look at some of the others on this thread, the same issue.
i am unable to type ingame because of your new system, all other BF games its fine.
Can you even acknowledge that you are aware of this issue and that you are looking into it to your customers
Edit: ive had to change my name because DICE wont help since the Alpha, and guess what..this name dosent work either!!!
Bump, can DICE acknowledge that they are working on this issue??
I saw in another thread that they're are currently investigating the issue.
Let's hope it'll be fixed shortly đ
Hey everyone,
Our profanity filter has an issue where some names can't be posted within in-game chat. If a word is filtered and it's part of your name that's what's causing the profanity filter to trigger. We are looking into the system but no ETA for a fix.
In the meantime there is a workaround, to change your name/user ID. We're aware this is not an optimal choice, but hopefully it helps some of you. If you check this article it'll detail the steps you need to take.
How to change your name/ID:

We'll let you know when we hear anything new around this issue.
Thank you for your patience!
