IceBlizzard 1 Posted July 14, 2012 I've searched the forum and read the stickies but I can't find out why this is happening to me,My problem is that even if I was spawn near a friend, I can't see his direct communication, I also can't hear him, but he can see whatever I type, it's frustrating. Any ideas?I got the latest beta patch + update so.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dcskill 117 Posted July 14, 2012 This is a bug that happens to some people. Direct Comms is still buggy.Try a different server? Is your friend fully updated too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dancing.Russian.Man 1631 Posted July 14, 2012 Did you make sure that he knows how to select chat channels?Ask him what color his chat text is. (His own messages.)The default chat channel is Group Chat. This doesn't show to anyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lotsolaxatives 0 Posted July 27, 2012 Im having this problem as well, I met a friendly and we traveled for a little bit, but I had to setup a communications system where he rolls once for yes and twice for no. It was so fucking annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faserkarma 0 Posted February 4, 2013 I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION!!!!!!!!! my friend what i did i bought a mic (make sure u can talk through it) then you plug it in and u can hear/see what everyone says in direct chat! and u can type back and they'll hear.
