This would be amazing.
I also think adding text chat support for PC is a no brainer. I'm REALLY surprised it wasn't added to begin with.
Voice chat is nice and all, but given the....variety of people who play the game and say a similar variety of things, I have my voice off by default. The first game I played someone had their microphone set on and was just spamming static the whole game. Muting them did nothing.I think text would be great for people who don't have or want to use a mic.
Please make it so.

Why do even have a console typing if not for that? I thought it was exactly for that purpose. Mah Gahwd.

I think this is the kind of multiplayer game mode that would benefit from quick chat commands like Team Fortress 2 and Rocket League. Example: A keyboard shortcut that makes your character announce he's going for the objective, or that he's going to revive someone.
Actual text chat would also be great. I'm surprised they didn't include it after being criticized for omitting it from ME3.

Console is typically a developer's console but yeah.

Yeah a radial menu with some options would be great, but I think full text chat option should be added as well. People wanted it in 3 and they chose to ignore it again in MEA is really shallow of them. This is one I don't understand whereas I get why there's no instant quit whole game from MP because they don't want us to quit and ruin the match by not allowing migration etc.

Are you familiar with Dota 2? There's a chat wheel, quite ok. You can also customize it, in addition to other possible key bindings, voice chatting, text chatting and map pinging. Simply loads of ways to communicate there. Again, the problem they have with COMMUNICATION. 💔

I know what the game is but I don't play or know a ton about specifics because MOBAs are trash imo :P AFAIK its probably just ripped from L4D2 and CSGO which both have them from the little bit I played those Valve games.
Don't count on it. Players asked for one in ME3 and it fell on deaf ears. Also developers these days rarely if ever make changes specifically for pc when there's a console involved.
