1. Your caps lock is on

2. You don't have to put what you want to say in all caps to get your point across. Even if you typed in lower case I would agree with you that text chat would be beneficial for multiple reasons; including a way for deaf people to communicate.

Since you put your opinion in all caps though I disagree with you.

I literally never read a wall of caps ever.

But judging by the title they were kind of sneaky about it. When they announced sub titles at quakecon they gave a list of reasons dog barking, playing late at night etc. It seemed to me they avoided saying anything about the hearing impaired intentionally. If they did obviously text would have to be addressed.

I've been posting for months about the lack of text chat on the console version of the game and how it creates an accessibility barrier. Your comments are falling at unwilling and/or lazy people's feet as they step over them. There is a precedent for text chat and it's successes with console MMO such as DC Universe Online. It's indeed a necessary feature.
