  1. Not saying it's not that bad, it's awful right now, but it's been worse before. When they banned the word I for weeks over 2 years ago, unbanned it, then banned it again that was the worst. The number 1 and lowercase L was also banned at the same time. This is bad though and it sounds like since it's affecting PC too that at least part of the filter problem is some other filter they use too. I just know about the xbox one they use which is what's responsible for messages not even sending in chat because you used a banned word like "could". I'd think that game companies would have a way to contact Microsoft when their fitler goes nuts and bans words like "could" and "lol" and "I". I'm not sure if they just don't care enough to contact Microsoft or if Microsoft doesn't care eough to fix it, or both. If they made their own filter on XBox, like many games do, they could stop relying on the mirosoft one so at least when it's broken they could fix it quickly.
  2. You're on xbox right? It's because Wildcard didn't make their own filter or if they did it didn't meet requirements. So instead of fixing their filter to meet the requirements or even making one they chose to go with the terrible one Microsoft has available for games. There are other games that use this filter too and it's been terrible for years now. Some game companies just don't want to spend the time or money on console to implement an adequate filter. The one they're using probably has some automated system that bans words based on reports across all of the games that use the filter, which means it catches a lot of common words. FWIW the above is how it was described to my gf when she pestered a CM enough in another game about those words being banned. Their filter didn't "pass" so instead of trying to fix it, they just opted to use the broken rental filter from Microsoft.
