In most games, communication is very important whether you are talking to you squad, looking for something to trade or simply asking questions.
The ingame chat box allows you to do all of the above but sometimes it can be a bit irritating having to click here and there to figure out where to type and who can actually see your messages.
Here is a quick guide to the chat commands in Warframe for better understanding what they do and what you can use them for.
