Quoting: 14Did you have the issue where you couldn't type a friend chat message unless your mouse was hovering the window? That's how mine was behaving. I haven't tested the update yet.
I didn't have that one, so I'm afraid I don't know - I only had the text-box losing focus as a result of the other bug.

What do you think to this outcome?
Most concerning. Activision alone was already powerful enough that it could refuse to support the biggest-selling console of the current generation [External Link] and then just shrug it off later, for example (in the console space, this is something that can harm the outcome for a platform).
