do you read what people are typing ingame?

i know i dont, not that i dont want to, i just get so caught up in the game i never think to look on the left and read it.

the only time i will is if people space it right out into the middle of my screen, apart from that forget about it.

half the time i dont even hear or see people calling for medic or support help.

and as a sniper i often am the last one alive and dont even realise it untill i die.
and when all this happens once im out of it i realise ivbeen leaning in with my face about 6 inches fromt he monitor.

so who else gets a little to far into the "zone"

the first time i noticed this was i was playing with mikeshw and i was talking to him on voip and he was typing that he didnt have a mic, but there was another guy with an asian accent talking in our squad and it hought it was mike. i didnt find out till the next day that he has an american accent and no mic to boot.

i often read what is writen - not that often when i'm on the ground but when i'm flying jet
most messages are like:
- cobalt is a cheater/haxor/fag... whatever
- guys like cobalt are destroying the whole game
- cobalt i hate you

*lol* i think that are the consequences when you are good at flying - peoples messages are a nice bonus besides the kill massages

personally, i wish there was a way to turn the chatbox off, leaving just squad chat active for squadies without mics.

ideally it would be chat off except for squad/commander, and voice over off as well. that would be sweet - instead of the barrage of 'enemy spotted', it would just give you the icons on the map, and maybe you could hear the character voice if you were somewhere physically (game-world physically, that is), near the person saying it (i.e. where it might actually be of relevance, instead of someone 'enemy boat' spotting on the other side of the freaking map.

yeah, i stopped paying attention to what people typed deliberately, awhile ago. in fact, it was after the last time retards were accusing me of 'spawn raping' because i was supporting my squad while they were taking a flag, from a distance with an apc.

fuck the chatbox!

...........getting that far in the "zone" is why we have so little teamwork in BF2...
