    Not sure how strict it is. Though it's a little wonky to have chat filtered when the actual voice clips from the character dialogue contains swearing.

    It is not really there to prevent swearing, it is there to prevent abuse of other people...Which normally includes swearing.

    Please tell me you're not so one dimensional that you don't see the difference between gamers killing pixels of monsters, aliens or criminal humans with some drunk idiot screaming/writing obscenities or telling you he's going to have forced anal intercourse with your Mother because you didn't revive him.

    most players swearing will be directed at other players, that's the difference. the swearing in the game is known, and scripted to not be offensive to the player directly

    of course, it has no impact since we have voice chat.
    Your Challenger won't drive? You're probably in the passenger seat.
    Can't sell/delete an item? Check all of your loadouts, it's likely still equipped.
    Auction house? Why? It'll just render bits purchased lock boxes pointless, and weapons are mostly equal anyway.
    Gear/enemy progression? No thanks, it'll only render 90% of the content trivial when you reach the highest zone.

    yep just like Cass. At the beginning, she was saying 'Shtako'. But not much later in the story, she was saying 'bi.tch', 'Shi.t', and middle finger up at the camera.

    It's fantastically useless at preventing abuse as creative vocabulary easily sidesteps it.

    Does it filter out alien dirty words such as jek and shtako?

    Good point on why filter chat in a game that has quite a bit of cursing. Way more than I expected.

    There never was any way to turn off the profanity filter I think. Or is there?
