Side Chat question

[Paraguin 1]

So, I know some servers still have some form of side chat. I also know how to change my chat channel by pressing ".". Now, some servers that do have the blue side chat when I do press "." I don't have the option. How do I use the side chat that some servers seem to have? I see other people talking in it at on this current server it shows as 1-A1 or something like that

If it says 1-A1 or other military type phrasing it's not actually someone speaking in side chat, it's an in-game command coming up due to a glitch.

Yeah I've see the same thing, I think its because some players aren't using the beta patch, so for them the side works, but for others with beta it doesn't. However as of the current build I don't think that should be happening as the current build requires beta right?

As for the green (group) channel, well players can talk to each other on that when spawning in, but not actually in game.

Global and Side chat are required to be switched off if you are hosting a server, part of the rules of hosting :D

Last night I was with my buddy in some bushes trying to get our bearings to get back to our camp. All of a sudden I heard two guys speaking Russian over the voice chat. It scared the crap out of us because we thought they were behind us, but there was nobody in sight. I figured it was from sidechat, but the server didn't have it enabled.. still gives me chills.

RazBari, Admins can still chat and voice over global possibly a RU server or maybe they were behind you! :D
