Either this or use ps4 chat if you can find a group of people that are all on PS4.

Only reason you should hook a usb keyboard it your PS4 - typing
I play on PC and stopped playing after patch 2.1. With the PS4 release a bunch of friends started playing it on the PS4 (what else would they play on that console ) so i resubbed.
The chat was an issue, but we found a solution that works for us: The PSN party chat works cross platform between PS4 and the Vita. So i have a Vita lying next to me with a headset with an integrated mic hooked up and we chat like this. I just need to remember to touch the vita's touchscreen from time to time so it doesn't go into standby and disconnects me


About the typing: Afaik you can hook up your tablet or smartphone somehow and use that to type too, at least for apple products, i don't know about Android or Windows Phones.
