so the other night i was playing a JBA game on naboo, and one of my teammates said to the entire lobby, "mining tanks cp3". i decide to head over there, but by the time i got there, 3 engineers and 2 vangaurds from the other team were there killing all of my team. so i thought, why did he use "t" to tell everybody, and not "y" to just tell our team. wouldn't it have made more sense NOT to tell the other team your strategy?

thoughts?

Most people don't realize there are 2 options. I use them correctly! :gunsmilie:

I think a lot of people have gotten the game as a download or dirt cheap and they don't come with a manual.

Unless something changes since I stopped playing, team and general chat were one and the same... did they actually fix that?

Yeah, I've been using Y when the time's appropriate. Definitely helps.

I agree with Jedi Power most people don't realise it. On the other hand, I got my SWBF2 game as part of a collection that came with a pdf manual that is extremely slow to start up. It took me a while to figure out that there were two chat options. I had trouble finding SWBF2 for PC alone.
