Chinese has the most native speakers, but I believe more people know english outside of US, UK, Austraila (native speakers)

Oh, and Canada

I can assure you that ACEO doesn’t require Turkish translation. It will be just a waste of time

If your read the wiki page, you would see that it also incorporates 2nd level speakers :slight_smile: anyways, back on topic :smiley:

I could help translate Swedish, but I doubt they need it since they(Olof and Fredrik) and are from Sweden. XD

Well I can offer my help with translating into Slovak language, which is spoken by 5mil people in world and is one of the most difficult ones. There is no way they will do it, but you never know. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

If there woud be a open system why not.

The 4th and 5th most spoken languages are always ignored. Bleh. :confused:

I can give a hand with Italian, if ever the need arises. :slight_smile:

i can help with spanish translations if necessary. Not latin spanish though, actual spanish.

So I thought it’s time to briefly comment on this aspect. We currently have no system in place to support different languages and this is due to the fact that we, when we started out, didn’t think there would be enough interest in the game to have parts of it translated. This obviously have changed but that’s the way it is.

It would probably take about a month with the current work speed to implement a system that would support several languages, i.e. it’s a lot of work. That does not include the translation it self, and if we were to start translating stuff we would probably crowd source it through the system that was linked earlier. That would also mean that it would take some time since it’s up to the community to help out.

To sum up, we’re not looking to implement multi language as of now. It might become a priority at a later stage, but as of the release and onwards we’ll focus on the game and not the languages.

Ans after multi language comes multi cultural… Different date formats, decimal… Fun times

The correct format (dd/mm/yyyy with decimal places instead of commas) had better be default! :wink:

No, MM/DD/YYYY
