However, as a continuation of this history, killed our friend...

I can not resurrect your friend...
But I can help, I have repeatedly suggested.
I do not know what else to discuss

P.S. Not enough two seconds to all players read the message in the chat and he was, might still be alive ...
P.P.S. Personally, I did not kill your friend.

If you can't accept it, don't play MMO exept if it is russian one.

"Grabbles&forks", lolirl. This is a pretty bad situation, but this thread is making me laugh.

Anyhow, I think it's actually kinda interesting and fitting that not everyone in Haven & Hearth can speak English. I mean, no, I wouldn't like to be killed by Russians or Koreans or whatever due to an unnecessarily hostile situation like this one... but I think it adds to the realism of the game that you won't always be able to communicate with people. It's like the world of Haven & Hearth is not simply some generic English country, but it really does represent the world and all its people. For variety, I sometimes leave Japanese runestones lying around. I just find it annoying in any other game when players don't speak English at all, but this game's setting feels like it can be an exception.

And we all know Russians play this game, so anyone really concerned about their own safety can go to the trouble of enabling a Russian keyboard and learning a sentence or two like "I don't speak Russian, please don't shoot at me." I assume people around the world already have English alphabets enabled to even be able to type in a website's URL, plus this game is English language, so you could say the Russians should be the ones to adapt since it's less hassle for them, but what can you do if they don't feel like putting the extra effort into learning some English? If you're gonna travel far away from your safe village, I guess it's up to you to decide if you want to learn a little Russian to be safer or not.

For realism, we should learn Latin and use that as lingua franca.

Russian is one of the major languages of the world, the most common language in Europe
in Russian they say 285 million people in the world

If you do not know Russian, why should I know your language?

Doesn't help the fact that you can't paste the google-translated message into the game chat either.
If you keep focusing on the shadow behind, you will not see the light in front of you.

Being successful isn't just about hard work and succeeding, it is also about picking yourself up when you fail.

Because English is the universal language of modern day, and there are probably more people who speak it non-natively, so if they can learn why can't you? I mean, should we all just start using our native languages and get insulted when people don't understand us? Ne znam kako tebi, al meni to i nema nekog prevelikog smisla.

+1 for copy/paste... they could just ask somebody in skype to translate them text...

PS I think we all should stop this language war... We have people who speak english, and people who don't... So lets accept this fact and don't be giving recomendations.

Let's also stop using linguistic disability as an excuse for everything. If you don't speak English, you shouldn't be interrogating people.
