Chat repeatedly stops working, both in receiving messages and in sending

Issue Type (Required):

UI & UX

Issue Description (Required):

For the past month or so whenever I play Darktide, regardless of the character/class I play; the mission I select; the server I’m on; or any other factor I thought to test, my chat would stop working in its entirety. There would be no warning message or anything to announce this, I would just realize I can’t send any messages, and I presume that I can’t receive any messages. The times I have used voice chat, it has been confirmed that I am missing chats. I can still type into the chat window, and upon pressing enter what I typed would vanish, and from what I have been told, nothing is received. I’ve verified my game’s cache more than once since I started noticing this phenomenon.

Steps to Reproduce (Required):

I admittedly do not know how to reproduce this issue, because I don’t know why it happens. I’ve verified my game cache, played on different characters of different classes, played on different servers, and played different missions. This just seems to happen to me when playing for more than half an hour.
