[minimal]

btw, is there an ability to rename own gang?

[Wire]

If it would happen, I am pretty sure that cyrillic would not be supported. This is not because we don't like russians, but because nobody from us can read it.

GM can help with this. If it matters, and if somebody cares.

[minimal]

Wire, thanks.

Only if GMs who can read cyrillic are online and available.

russian char names (in offensive language) is reallty annoying(if u know russian lng), and i meet about 10 or more people in few first weeks (with *bad* names). sorry but names like:
пидарас, ща вьебу, гомосек, and etc... its really annoying if u know russian. same can be with faction names.

[lehytek]

I am seconding this question.

Same here. It's extremely annoying! What if I start creating chars with names like "tu esi daunis", which translates into something like "you are a dumbass"... This is too much - disable cyrillic totally for char and faction names. Allow cyrrilic chat only!

[minimal]

I'am totally disagreed with disabling cyrillic for char names, cuz there much more adequate names than not, IMO.

Yea, let's add Chinese font and char names also, and Japanese, Korean, Greek, Arab, etc...

This can be done. FOnline would need to use UTF-8 and a font using the full capabilities of this character encoding standard. This means that FOnline could handle 65536 unique characters. Given that we can have Cyrillic characters and Latin diactric signs in FOnline, it already means that we're not using ANSI (and most likely Unicode). Green light for moonspeak.
Another issue is font size. I for one can tell from experience that Chinese hanzi is unreadable in size 8. Plus all letters on FOnline are a bit thick and have borders.
But is it worth it? And is there enough demand for this feature to make it a must-have?

I like the Cyrillic names, and I wouldn't mind Chinese.

It makes the game lulzier.

For me, players with those names are NPCs.

Extremely dangerous ones.

Extremely dangerous ones.

Not really with the appropriate team, and these are the better NPCs to farm ;p Best reward!

You didn't see how making font for FOnline looks like
