    So is the In-game chat having issues, or is the in-game community unhelpful?

    So I've been having a great time playing Defiance, but sometimes I have a question that could easily be solved be asking players in-game. The only problem is that anytime I ask a question I haven't gotten a response; not even a "i don't know" or a "lol learn 2 play noob". It's happened like 5 times now and I'm wondering if it's an issue with the game or an issue withe the players.

    While I'm posting I'll ask what I tried to ask; I don't remember what i asked the first few times, but I remember what I just tried to ask; I have a detonator and I tried to figure out the controls to detonate it once it's fired but couldn't find it, how do you detonate the detonator?

    Hit your reload key to detonate your grenade launcher's grenades.

    issues the dev team are working on from there sticky post posted today

    Connectivity – Being able to connect, patch and play. This has a number of things that can be plaguing you depending on platform and what version of the game you have. We’re on it like a shark during winter solstice.

    Pre-order items – WHERE ARE THEY?!?!? We have a number of cases where they aren’t being delivered to you. We know. They haven’t disappeared nor will they. They might pop up suddenly over the next hours, the next time you log on or tomorrow.

    Bosses and Arkfalls – They might be very difficult as they scale and the rewards not in any sane correlation to what they should be, being this difficult. You’re right, it’s not right. On it.

    Chat and VOIP – This isn’t broken, we just believe people should use their psychic abilities more. Can you hear what I’m saying to you right now? Yes, exactly. We’re working on it.

    There is no actual zone chat in game. Closest to it is area chat where only those in close proximity can see your text .. so everyone ignores chat entirely

    I ignore the chat. Not because I want to but because its more of a pain in the *** to pay attention to than it needs to be. Where its at and the area it takes up is not sufficient for me or my eyes.

    People just dont watch the chat, asked a simple question if some one could revive me, during a mission. 8 people around me, had to die, got a reply later saying "people ask for so much! Haha, sorry didnt c it"
    "Veni, vidi, vici"
