Russians use the Cyrillic alphabet. Itās not any different from the Chinese, Japanese or Korean languages etc.
As to what they are saying, I cannot tell you, you can try copy the chat text into http://translate.google.com and see if you can get an idea.

You need to be more careful with such phrases. Itās like youāre trying to say that these different languages are in fact one and the same language.

Not saying the languages are one in the same, just that they all use special character/symbols. Russian language does have more similarities with English than what the other languages have that I mentioned.

I was guessing you perhaps meant to say āitās all Greek to youā or rather āitās all Cyrillicā.

Wow thatās kinda snooty and self-esteemā¦
English and english speaking people are not the centre of the world you knowā¦

Or chinese?

- I can read latin and cyrillic without problem. But once I travel to Izrael and I still remember that shock. Being totaly unable to read, pronounce ā¦ that ugly feeling being totaly lost. So I can understand OPās feeling.
- Believe me - in 90 % of cases being unable to understand what they are writing in chat is a huge plus.

Thatās not the pointā¦
He/She DEMANDS to BLOCK āthose ugly lettersā and this is -by any means- way too far and the words āsnottyā and āself-esteemā are the most harmless that came into my mind as i read thisā¦
Seems like he/she lives in a strange world where only the own people count and is unable too accept that more people speak chinese than englishā¦
Thatās sad by any means but no surprise knowing that some americans even donāt know where australia is and that it is a continent ā¦
THIS is the niveau of the OPās postā¦

Im not speaking on behalf of the human race here or what is right or not irlā¦
My opinion is only regarding our game, and that its features should be conformed to 1 understandable language - english.
My thoughts go out to disable all foreign characters in all common chats.
Noā¦
Just noā¦
You have no - not a slight- right to demand thisā¦

Interesting option would be add special setting to chat. If player desire so - he can make chat replace cyrilic with their latin ekvivalent. Believe me - russians are able to read russian words, written in latin characters. Since ages. So they are able to communicate even if they do not have keyboard with cyrilic letters on it. So there is already workable simple algorithms for that. Default would be āturned offā but player can turn it on in game settings.
This is so low effort Iām actually struggling to make fun of it.

Actually thatāll do.
Edit : on an related note, Cyrillic calligraphy is absolutely stunning.
Letās discuss that instead.

These are all different languages. Also use different writing systems.
Theyāre all the same in their distinction of their own set of characters.
Cāmon this is an easy one
so whatā¦?
They have to be forced to write in english?
againā¦ english is far from beeing the centre of the worldā¦
What is your argument?
āI donāt like this so no one has to do itā?
i seeā¦
How could they DARE to use their own language in YOUR game?
Blasphemyā¦
I feel pity for people like you that centre their world just around their neighborhoodā¦the world is so much biggerā¦
Saying that all is the same because is different is very paradoxical. Lets just say they are all different.

To that same degree.
The difference is what weāre quantifying here.i.e. theyāre as distinct from Latin base as each other
OMG you are so salty you can not readā¦
Example:
You see "ŠŠ° ŠŠøŃŠµ Š³Š°Š½Š³ Š³Š¾Š¾Š½Š¾Š² " in local chat. 0 idea untill you use google translator for it. Imagine you can turn option to see āNa Jite gang goonovā. Same wrds. But you see āJitaā, you see āgangā and if you are good you can even understand, that it is goonās whose gang it is.
It is not about russians forced to use letters, that are understanded by most of game players. It is about possibility to make communication better.
