  • To confirm sending a message, a second hit of the Enter/Return key is required
  • The previous “ON” setting has been renamed to “While Typing”

• Chat Preview is now enabled in singleplayer, and will display when using commands that have selector substitution such as /say

Player Reporting

It is now possible to report a player for sending abusive messages in the game chat. A reporter is required to select the individual chat messages that contain the objectionable content, as well as the category of the report, this is to provide the best context for our moderation team to take action. This is accessed via the social interactions screen.

• Multiple chat messages can be selected for reporting
  • Additional chat messages around this selection will also be used to provide our moderation team with further context
• The category of the report can be selected from a list of Report Categories
  • The Report Categories screen has a “Learn About Reporting” button that links to a help article
• Additional comments can be entered to provide more details and information regarding the report

For more information, see this article about Player Reporting and our Reporting FAQ.
