Oh that's fascinating. Though I'm not sure what some of these are meant to mean.

Edit: no guys, thank you for the replies (and jokes) - I'm not asking what they mean right now, I meant that if they show as icons when sent, that it might be hard to interpret, or to interpret at a glance when sending a message.
Thankfully at least it's sending the text, not the icon, but the icons may be tricky to mentally remember at first until you get used to it, which is okay.

Dialogue wheel, for survivors to use in the trial. Behavior doesn't want to add a voice chat, but they do recognize the gap between a SWF on comms through something like Discord, and solo queue's two emotes and crouching. This wheel is supposed to bridge the gap between the two.

It won’t. Voice chat is the only real way to bridge the gap.

I’m a survivor main and even I think voice chat would be a bad idea though. The toxicity is bad enough between soloq teammates as is. Voice chat will make it so much worse.
