Stop releasing untested garbage, the chat filter is a joke

in Feedback and Suggestions

Censored words include: "Reddit" "meghead" "myers" "T-bagging" (but not tbag) "Phone" "call" "face" "tunnel" camp" "friend" "sorry" "farming" "noob"


Not censored phrases: "This s-h-i-t" "A-hole" "k-y-s" I've even seen a single usage of the forbidden gamer word, hard R


Honestly, was this some experimental algorithm that was thrown into the game without any testing, because it was dirt cheap? And why? Nobody in the community asked for this, it does nothing to curb actual toxicity, probably the only group of people who even have a use for this garbage is streamers. Something like this NEEDS to be optional, and opt-in only, not as a default option.

    Wouldn't be surprising, the filter is complete garbage and I doubt they tested it at all. I literally can't have a normal conversation without triggering it on totally arbitrary words.

    I wouldn't care if the filter was OPTIONAL so I can actually not deal with it. It is just an annoyance.

    It's based on a bot, apparently, just like Roblox. It'll get better eventually, after learning enough.

    i also hyave lot of time when my words was censored while it was not bad words.

    for example you can't write: once you master the nurse

    so you have "once you ###### the nurse"

    People in chat will believe we say bad things.

    And it's so simple to fool the system by adding points between letter li.ke th.is.

    Let the people write bad things, so we can take scrennshots and report them.

    But actually we can be reported for not saying bad words at all.

    me to.

    I just finish a game and in chat i wasn't able to say "kill himself"

    I never saw a chat filter like that.

    What is the point to filter like that?

    and even to filter.

    If someone say insult then we can screenshot and report.

    But with this filter, the other players will believe that you are maybe insulting while you only say decent things.

    DEVS !!!!!!! what are you doing?

    You are killing your game.

    Stop that pls.
