    Can anyone confirm that it was perhaps removed? I swear during beta it was one of the joystick buttons. Even went to gamepad config and didnt see anything.

    I noticed there was this auto-translate option on the chat menu (doing something), but it just adds something like {Japanese} and doesn't seem to affect your text in any way.

    When you press select to activate the chatbox, you then press R1 to bring up the auto-translate feature.

    The problem is though I haven't worked out how to shortcut/macro certain text. So I hardly ever use it because I have to flick through each line individually and it's very arduous and cumbersome .

    The onscreen keyboard is horrible. It actually detriments the game every time it appears and causes it to crash because of PS3s amazing ability to multitask *Sarcasm*.

    To get around this I have bought that small keypad which Sony sell as an accessory - it mounts on the controller and it looks pretty cool. Though takes some time to get used to as typing with big thumbs only on small keys is far from ideal.
