How to talk in game?

[-Mac 3]

I can't figure out how to talk to other people through typing in game? I hit "/" and said stuff but no one responded? Do some servers not allow speak or...? Help I'm new

Capslock will let you talk via voice chat

Also sorry for whoever see's the report I put in I saw the R in report and thought it said reply so I reported "capslock"

In game, you gotta be in Direct chat/channel(which is white) and if I recall, it's only to people within a 20 meter radius(correct me cause I'm wrong). Global and vehicle chat channels don't work but global works in the lobby when you're loading the game.

Hold caps lock to use your microphone and double tap to leave it on(which i don't suggest you do).

press "<" or">" to switch channels. Also I think the range is 40 metres. Everyone seems to have a different opinion on this though.

You are not the first.

We are aware.
