As it is the global chat function that quite often ruins the powerful immersion of this wonderful simulation I wonder if it would be too complicated to make it possible to turn it off? Perhaps get some kind of radio function? you could find a transmitter and receiver... That would work for those who wanna play this as it was intentended..without any 3rd party comms like mumble,teamspeak etc. Perhaps it would even reduce the disruptive behavior on servers...

This is good news indeed.

rgr that..

This is not the forest bug,it is something else...I spawned in this empty landscape without any objects,no trees,buildings etc. did not help to respawn or to change server..kept happening to me the whole night. Also my stats were wrong..i was all of sudden a bandit etc. ?!?!?!
