Ok i bet more then one of you have done it or seen it. You open a chat wile your playing and don't know why your mech does not respond any more. if not you may have seen some one in chat say (wwwwwwwwwssssssssssddadddddasw swdds ) or something like that. Having the chat window at the top left is good and all but i think it would be a Awesome idea to have what your typing in the center of the screen so you know your doing it. Being a keyboard player i really cant type and play at the same time so if i do want to chat i wont mind text in the middle of the screen.

Hope you think this is a good idea.

I dunno. First thing I did was re-map chat to the '+' and '-' keys. Placing them right next to the target select is a laughable UX choice. Maybe just try that, much less likely to mess up when they're off to the far side.

I've done the same at times n just remapped the chat to a button not close to any other commands. After all when ya fighting chatting is the last thing i wanta do

Though it cannot hurt to have the chat more center focused.
