There is a lack of Arab in EVE online and i think the main issue is the ability to write in Arabic.
Incloding the game has no advertisment in Arab community.
Any way the Writing in Arabic is not correct in Chatt windows in EVE at all.
But the writing in this forum is perfect.
If i want to do so i need to use Third party app to convert the sentence so
it show up correct inside the game so i paste it.
Not sure if it is in right section to post this But i hope it attract some attention.
The game has languages for Russian, Japanese, French ,etc so all it would really take would be to set a language translator program to read everything in Arabic which would include markets, gates, systems, item names, etc.
It would be a really good way to branch out and extend a hand to the Arabians to say “Come, play Pew Pew Ships with us and have fun.”
Diplomacy through mutual game associations is good diplomacy.
I would even go so far as to say that the Arabic community could bring new designs for ships once mingling with the Amarr and Gallente took place.
Eve is getting a new chat client later this month. It may offer better support for other alphabets.
I don’t expect to see any new localizations - simply too much work to maintain until machine translations are good enough to do the job - and they have improved dramatically so that may not be too far in the future.
I was watching a Russian PvP video and and everything was in Russian to its possible to convert the audio and texts to Arab.
The question would be important to CCP in my opinion is; how many Arabs would come and play and enjoy Eve Online if the language was Arab friendly? Numbers are important to CCP.
I would take a survey of those who like space games in general where you live and on the internet to determine how many play Eve Online if an Arab language was available.
I endorse the possibility to write in as many tongues as possible, but the reality is that you’d better off writing and reading in English: the best learning sources and tools are in this tongue.
Maybe you could help Eve along and write the language in Arabic correctly such as the module names, station names, etc. Get a group of your Arab buddies together and write the on screen message out in Arabic and then submit it to Eve Online
Maybe CCP could release an Arab version for the Middle East like CCP did in China. The Arab version of Eve Online would only be accessible to Arab countries just like it is in China if the Middle East feels that interactions with other nations might tarnish their traditions.
