Remove the Chat Filter. It's dumb, it's unnecessary, and it doesn't work.

Soapbar

I just got out of a match where a survivor in post-game chat asked how to do the unlink sets glitch. The other survivor couldn't explain it so he just told the other to Youtube it.

Except, when he typed that, the word "Youtube" was censored. Maybe he did it lowercase, but I typed uppercase and also got censored by the chat filter.

I followed up with a "what the (s-word)", the s-word, the one relating to fecal matter, was not censored in the slightest.

The absurdity of an M-rated game about killing helpless survivors in a brutal nightmare realm has no doubt been pointed out several times. I could understand it's usage in censoring slurs and what not. But the chat filter is currently getting in the way of just having a basic conversation. I've had the word "lust" censored in the past, among numerous other common words that quite literally COULD NOT have any bigoted connotation censored by the filter. I think I've even had "the" censored in the past.

I understand that BHVR has said that the filter is under development. However, that doesn't mean you just roll out a broken system and fix it later.

Its overly sensitive and if they are gonna have it, there at least needs to be an opt out option
