Do they just use alien looking letters and words but still the same syntax and grammar the way it's done in futurama, or are they full blowl languages like Klingon or Na'vi?Quote:

They have their own grammar rules and the like. David J Peterson who conlanged up most of Dothraki for Game of Thrones has been working on Castithan & Irathiant mostly. They're both over 1300 words with working grammar. Hes done a touch of Indogene and Libarata I think it is, so the Indogene signs should say *something* and be consistent from what I understand, but it's not a 'working' language as such (yet ^.^).Quote:

Hello Devs and community!
Does anyone know how the "dirty language" issue is going to be handled in defiance?
I can still remember my time trying to roleplay an evil sith lord in SWTOR. It really hurt the immersion that I could brutally murder innocents but couldn't use foul language while doing it.:mad:
If I want to roleplay a kind of tough, grimy, independent arc hunter in Defiance I definitely need to use it aswell I'ld say...

Agreed. Each individual player should have the option to toggle the profanity filter on and off. That way those who want to see it can, and those who don't won't have to. It seems silly to force a profanity filter on the entire player base when giving each individual a choice is entirely possible.Quote:

I have been a healer class in every MMO Ive played and pretty good at my role. It will be interesting to see how the healer class will be set up in Defiance, I cant wait.
I totally agree. An individual profanity filter is the ideal solution...Quote:

It's like District 9 meets Firefly meets Starship Troopers.
Nice find. Let me throw my hat in, as it were.
Hell yeah! Love to RP!
I guarantee you right now even if they only have basic text chat, I WILL be RPing as much as I can in this game. Or at least as much as I can before the people around me start going mad.
Why didnt you just turn off your profaine filter? lolQuote:

I was confused, and a little weirded out.....but flattered, but confused again.
It gave me mixed signals!!
So i quit & have never went to RPing ever again!
That was about 3yrs ago now.
Im a ole player.. though Im more used to doing it in more traditional MMOs... dont think it would make since/fit well in a shooter.. but either way Ill be playing on PS3 which Im sure no one else here is lol
*walks into the room naked*
Oh... wrong kind of Role Playing?
you werent roleplaying you were just being yourself..Quote:

Flattering, but i feel violated for some reason lolQuote:

LOL, Well don't let that get you down. It's always best to just ignore the folks who are making you uncomfortable. RP is just about having fun with the persona you create. Anything else is BS.Quote:

Once more info become available to ppl concerning the world, im game.
If the guild/clan/whatever features are released soon, at least we will be able t determine how much of a "community" game this will be besides; meet me here, were gonna kill bugs/ppl.
well since its a "shooter first" and "mmo second" Ive kinda already abandoned hope of guilds being complex and ppl doing things like RPing...
its basically just gonna be a third person, co op call of duty with hundreds poof ppl on one HUGE map.
I def think playing a human will be much easier if ppl decide to rp w live spoken voice. Noone is actually gonna learn the other language right? i mean really?
Just do like all games do and make a "common" language that all speak.
or you can pretend you have some kinda translator and that just make sit SOUND like theyre speaking english :p besides if I recall correctly in the trailer for the TV show the aliens (the ones that wanted to peacefully occupy earth) speak English and they look like humans.. just BIG humans but humans non the lessQuote:

Nope!Quote:

Now whether that remains true or not, is yet to be seen.
But i highly doubt they made 8 Alien languages just from none of them to be used.
