Display spoken languages with TAB

[scarfacemperor]

Hello, I have a suggestion that could greatly improve cooperation between players :

In the game settings, alongside with your nickname and thinks like that, add spoken languages :
spoken languages : [language 1] [language 2]...
just write the languages you know

And display them side with the nickname, as a little flag, when you press TAB.

So you'll know if someone speaks your language

+ you finally know if someone speaks your language, and which language to use if you know several ones
+ you can make squads of players who share languages with you, increasing cooperation
+ No more kto polak/que é brasileiro?

- players can "lie" on their languages
- why is there only the british flag ? I'm american/canadian/irish/australian/...

Perhaps an idea for the back-burners, for the most part there are regional servers where it is assumed the players speak the language of the area. Also this seems a tad bit frivolous as a feature when we still have major game-play features that need to be added.

This may not be an issue in some places but almost every american server I have played on has been filled to the brim with foreign people.


A better option IMO would be to put in some type of google translate or something like it. In the config you could chose your default language.

Yeah, there's a wide variety of American servers so they tend to get the most traffic. But the wide number of foreigners is interesting seeing as the website is only available in english.
Also google translate wouldn't work out so well because rarely do people not speak in slang now-a-days and google translate is very fickle with non-grammatically correct sentences.

I'd rather be able to set in which country do I live. Would solve two problems at once. Also, it would be better if we could be able to choose not to show any flag at all, because I've been kicked out of servers once or twice just because I'm Brazilian, even though I wasn't speaking Portuguese at all.
