The chat box has always been bugged for me. Issues change with nearly every single patch of the game. Currently, one I hit the enter key to open the chat box, I cannot type in it or exit the chat box window and the game becomes unplayable. Can't respawn, can't do anything since the chat window is still active and open. This requires force closing of the game within Windows. Previously (two patches ago and prior), I was unable to type in the chat box and requires me to click elsewhere on the screen to exit the chat box. In the last update/patch before the currently one, I was able to utilize the chat box normally and it functioned as intended, but no longer the case.
Community ManagerHi, sorry this disrupted your game. I’ve merged your post into the existing thread. Please take a look at the pinned reply for a community-shared workaround.
Another workaround if you don't have a controller:
Unbind your enter key from opening the chat.
You can bind "j" to it, for example, and unbind "All Chat," which is "j" as standard.
Thank you for your patience.
