Just seen the ingame ticker and it says you can 'whisper to other players' through the player management screen.
Does this just mean you can type messages to one player/your squad without anybody else on your team seeing it?
I did a search on this and didn't come up with any answers.

Bring up the score board, right-click to get your cursor, and then click the 'manage players' tab.

you have to go on your member screen and click on a name and you will be able to whisper to that person, but your name will also appear next to your whisper so the person knows who sent them a whisper

Thanks Talus but my question is what does the 'whisper' do or achieve,I've never come across this before until last week when a guy on our team was whispering to me...felt a bit creepy lol.

It's a private message that only that player sees.

lol. I was thinking the same thing. Something else to have to ignore now. I'm glad I don't get ads at least. :)
