At this point, why dont you just delete the post game chat completely?

I understand that you censored bad words to minimize the toxicity, but…

You censor me for typing survivor names, perks and some other not-bad words. Cant even talk with people smh.

    Or let us disable the ######### filter. We're not in kindergarden. This game has mature ratings so why the ######### are you treating us like we're kids?

    I find it baffling it censors common swear words, WHEN SAID SWEAR WORDS APPEAR IN THE TOMES.

    It's just nonsensical.

    I often have to go back and edit posts I just made here on this forum too due to autocorrect wrongly assuming what I meant to say and changing it before I realize it. As for the game text chat, I'm on Xbox one and can't seem to find the chat. Am I missing it ?

    Have heard of how silly the game chat censors are though. It sounds ridiculously hilarious. Especially for an m rated game that only adults should be playing anyways. We aren't children. We can read a few no no words, and if an adult can't then that's on them ultimately. The game does also have report features for those who choose to report the no no words, and I'm sure there's a block feature too.

    You're not really missing much. In the earlier days when it was peer to peer it was a great tool for making friends and a lot of my friends on my Steam account are from just chatting after the match. Now the game is popular and swollen with the normie horde so since this is a Canadian company they're beholden to Canadian laws and I imagine are strict as a precaution.

    Nowadays you stay in the lobby for about a minute and watch the tally screen go by, then you'll look to your right to see if anyone said 'gg' to which you'll reply gg in turn. Sometimes people will ask a question if they don't see a globe by your name and sometimes you can get a chat out of it. If you play like a snot though you'll be made aware of it. (Survivor/Killer handbook etc memes.)

    I like to keep chat on but it can get a rise out of you if you let it.
