Pvp chat is an outdated system that doesn't work anymore

[sindriiisgaming]

So it's been in the game as long as I have and while I understand why it's in the game. The lack of team based communication has been a massive negitive.

If for example there is a very skilled player on the opponent team.. I have basically no way of pointing this out. Or explaining how I can counter them. This HAS cost me many games. I instead have to find those players in my team through the pvp discord, message them after the game and tell them. Most of them by then don't even reply because it's pointless. If I am being focused down by 4 yes. 4 players. I have no way of communicating this. So noone helps me and I die. If somebody comes to the door, my controller dcs or anything makes it so i need to leave the game. I have no way of communicating this. So my team think I'm win trading or sandbagging intentionally. Sometimes if I'm lucky they even report me for it

I understand why chat was removed. But censoring toxicity isn't the way to counter it. For one. If somebody wants to be toxic.. they will just spam "nice job" "push the crystal' regardless. Something square enix claims they will take as a breach of tos ( I'll dig up the lodestone post later) or, they will dm me either in game or on discord and say I'm trash or whatever else. So what exactly did removing chat do to prevent this? Nothing.

Not being able to communicate with my team is costing us wins. Making players frustrated and not serving it's purpose.
Not to mention (I have HOM and Vanguard) that after almost 500 games of frontline and 200 of rival wings I've seen predominantly toxic, afk, win trading and intentionally dieng 0 dps players and far more toxicity. Why is it only cc should suffer this stagnant chat? When frontline and rival wings get away for free with much more toxicity.
