I checked and didn't see this. It would be nice if we could get a option to assign a key bind to review message history instead of pausing to open it. Not 100% necessary but I think it would be nice to have especially for all the single player base and campaigns out there.

This wouldbe a great feature indeed. Personally I work around it by using VoiceAttack along with Taz1004's No Pause Mod, so I can Bring it up and continue to fly without ever touching anything.

The bare minimum they could make it as in MP mode where all the messages could be reviewed on the screen while flying.
 
Well, SP dwarves MP, so I assume SP wants it more than MP.

I think he was referring to the in-game chat that multiplayer has. You can open it and scroll through the messages and close it pretty easily.

Auch! Believe you're right! 

@celestHawk Apologies if you were referring to the MP chat. Totally support that. But, seriously? You can't scroll the MP chat? Ain't that pretty 90s?

You can actually. Hence the referencing to that message system. When you open the box to type a message it enables access to a scroll bar IIRC (it is been a while I had to use it).

Something more robust for both modes, Multiplayer and Singleplayer would be preferable. It is been a bump on the road to open the messages history while playing singleplayer and it is as well while playing in co-op multiplayer.

Aha! I see. Two different systems? Or should it be one unified "message history". Personally I think it's better to keep them separately. If scrolling works in MP, why change it?

Well... whatever can be easily accessed through the hotas for a quick glance to grab coordinates and such.

The multiplayer dedicated one clumps everything together; player messages, kills, players joining server etc. It can get impractical quite quickly in dense missions.

In Single Player however, there is no such message/chat window for quick access. One must press 'escape' to get to 'message history' window, and even that doesn't have any filter to apply for better consulting a certain set of information.
Of course, nothing like a good physical notepad and pen in hand like the folks that had flown/flies the real deal irl... or the Phantom canopy for that matter. lol

OP mentioned the need to a hotas binding to grab that window up for quick access, and I think it is fair. 🙂 Maybe something a dual virtual kneeboard can bring in an easy manner (2d and 3d).

@Tom P you can use Open Kneeboard, it shows radio log transcript in one of the tabs, as well as MIZ briefing/slides

That's good to know. I'm just sick of having to rely on outside material when a lot of stuff should be inhouse.
