I know you guys have given us the ability to change the color of the text and the size of the chat. Which is great.
But, with the back of it being 100% transparent ALL the time, it makes it difficult to read unless you press Enter first. Which darkens the background of the chat a little.
I've noticed a lot of games have the chat window to have a slightly darkened background with the ability to make it fully transparent, or completely opaque and a few different degrees in between. It does wonders for the ability to read the chat text at all times. The main thing that makes it a little difficult is you can change the color of the text, but then depending on the area and the color of your text it may be difficult or more easy to read. So it's a sort of regional fix depending on the main color of the region you're in. And it's ALWAYS easier to read if you turn your screen so the text is hovering over a shadow.
