If you aren't going to add voice in the game, at least add some keyboard chat macros which are customizable. That'll make giving out basic commands and information much easier. Add variable substitutions like the currently targeted mech's designation, location, own location, etc.


Just a few examples of how much easier pug communication could be with macros:

focus fire on <targeted mech>
rally at <my location>
charge <targeted mech location>
charge enemy base
fall back
contacts at <targeted mech location>
many contacts at <targeted mech location>
they went left
they went right
watch your back
watch left flank
watch right flank
help me at <my location>
roger
sorry
nice shootin'
Good game, thank you, and good night.

THey have implemented ( or will be) auto channel creation in C3 voice which is external. But I think that these are awesome ideas
