Yup. The delay is sometimes brutally long, and messages will even appear out-of-order
Probably related to the “New Filter”. When the filter first appeared the chat was very slow as well.

The filter is gone now. At least for me. I can swear to no end in an empty test lobby.

This issue persists. At least it takes 3 seconds once you deliver the message to get in the screen. This started happening since the implementation of the language filter that 99% of the communicate dislike.
I have it too, at first logging out of Xbox live thingy was solving this, now, nothing solves it, and it’s very game changing communication is essential…

Maybe this helps?
The topic is here:
For those who need to see it here:
Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
Open the hosts file with Notepad
Add a new line at the very end, with the following:
0.0.0.0 text-mod.ageofempires.com
Save changes
Use Notepad++ to edit that file easily.
Note: It will only disable them for you, others need to do this to allow you to see their messages.
Note: This also disables the chat delay.
