Tigrix 308 Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) So this merge means the old rule of "english only in public chat" is removed from the game? because, I sure don't see any english anymore at all .... pretty much scrolling 15min of chat, its 99% russian/cyrillics.... bye bye "eng citadel" welcome innova 2.0 Edited August 15, 2019 by Tigrix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ComFeyer 111 Posted August 15, 2019 as far as i have been made aware the players are allowed to talk in any language they want/can, as long as it's within the terms of service. but if you wish to contact a gm, the best option will always be english. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's interesting and very very messy.... Certainly wasn't that way before as far as i'm aware but okay then. I also don't see how GM's would investigate reports or even take direct action if they have to understand a bunch of different languages being spoken in public. How do they know the languages are not breaking the TOS, if in public chat any language goes? 99% certain it was a rule before that public chatter was to be kept in english... else you'd need a hiring policy that require GM's to speak english, spanish, german, russian.... and so on... Or this whole "monitoring districts and player behavior" is pointless. I recall being warned for speaking non-english... did LO change this rule?

An upgraded chat algorithm updated in the future could help. Other than that I don't know any ideas right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fenton 210 Posted August 16, 2019 Time was we used to have districts labelled for different languages too. This is the new world now. Think of it as more people to sell weapons and customisation to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
