I think that at me chat disappear not only when I press Escape. I dont see chat from time to time in different game modes. When i come back in lobby chat again work for me

There was an issue like this back in beta with the "Steam UI" option or something in the game options menu. When the setting was enabled, you couldn't see any chat, and disabled let you see chat. But right now, neither work.
