thats cool i take german at school im not good but that looks fun to try

Now all they need is a Hebrew and a French server. :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Barukh atah Adonai, Eloheinu melekh ha-olam,

 

 

 

asher kid'shanu b'mitzvotaz v'ratzah vanu.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heh, bet nobody knows what prayer I took that from. : :wink:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hebrew has the same problems as Dutch- most native speakers also speak English. The alphabet and different keyboard set-up might be irritating to configure as well.

YAY!!! finally, im very excited because i lived in germany for 4 yrs :thumbsup:

To those people who want a German world, or a Finish world, or a French world etc. etc. and hoping they will get one because their language is/will be supported.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

IMO I doubt very much that will be the case as it would be a waste of Jagex's servers. What will happen (again IMO) is that ALL languages will be loaded on ALL servers and you choose your language when you log in.

imagine typer this in world 2 all day:

 

 

 

buying 2k Wiederherstellungstrank!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anyways, I think Ive got an idea for these worlds which will help me..... 8-)

 

Maybe Jagex made a big mistake, because they saw a lot of people talking Dutch, but thought: they're talking German and then thought, let's make German servers!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So actually the servers are for Dutch people, but Jagex thought they were german!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

German and Dutch look like eachother but are different from eachother, a lot different!

Why is having another language a mistake?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Well I say, "Yay" to everyone who speaks German. :

 

 

 

lol they invited dutch people to a German beta and they cant speak german :XD: :XD:

who could have seen this coming??

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think its great that runescape is becoming open to more diversities of people. Im looking forward to more languages such as Russian, Chinese, and Japanese possibly in the future :)

You have no idea how hard Japanese would be. First, many letters in the language are the equivalent of two American letters. E.G:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ka = a letter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ma = a letter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then, you have to change it into the proper Japanese "alphabet" (katakana, hiragana, kanji)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, what I'm saying here, is that word filters may as well 'splode.

Ich bin auslander und spreche nicht gut deutsch. :oops: Erste jahre of Deutsch. I might go on a german server if it comes out to see if i can translate anything.

A couple of people on prior pages have said things to the effect that Germans are not very good at English. I've had quite a contrary experience. I've travelled to Germany and Austria a couple of times, and I've found that nearly everyone is quite good at speaking English. Whenever I'd try to communicate in German, many people would just respond to me in English because they knew it'd be easier.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only group of people that have trouble with English are the older generations because English wasn't taught in schools back in the day. Also, I spent most of my time in cities, so perhaps the rural population is not as adept at English.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But I look forward to honing my German skills on the foreign servers. As of now, I can communicate well enough, but my grammar is atrocious.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Deutch ist meine lieblingsprache.

This will be pretty cool, does this mean there will be German Fansites?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lol^^^

Can't wait for the full version!

I think this is a baaaaad idea, tough I knew about this update a month ago.

 

 

 

They only support multiple languages now, and it will be easier to attract gold farmers and .. dumb players

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My language is dutch, but I hate to speak in on a public english game, thats rude for all the people around you. The next thing is that all my friends will start: "Oh, heb jij twee boogtouwen, ik moet mijn boogmaakvaardigheid een level bijgeven. <-- this sounds really dumb.

 

 

 

Ive seen it enough in other games.. and its terrible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At least I hope I can get in the beta, would be fun to get an empty world or so.

They never said that they were translating it only to German.

It's good to see Jagex expanding Runescape to different parts of the world.

 

 

 

Its all about the money. :-$

As far as I know, they havent told it officially nor given any hint in the past. My few sources however are very reliable ;)

 

 

 

Surprised nobody else knew about this before, am I the only one?

I think I know why there arent much German people. Ive been transferred to Germany once. I was suprised to see many telephone internet connections or NO internet. When I asked him if he knew about Runescape, he didnt.

 

 

 

Now I know that this shouldnt have to be the case. But to my knowledge all the German people I know can speak English very well.

I would never play RS in any other language than english. Not even if they made the language into danish (mine :XD: ). Just wouldn't feel right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oooh well, some may like it. Especially those who aint that good at english..

It's on their corporate site, branching off RS into other countries and has been there for a few months already.

Won't this make the servers we have atm less crowded...?

 

 

 

If so....then i'm stuffed getting a BA team

There is one big problem about this. kids who don't speak english can't play the game because they can't understand it. the age limit is 13 years, everybody with internet connection is able to speak english when they are 13. With other languages available you will get numerous little kids into runescape. Lumbie will become a place for spamming, begging and even easier scamming (they still beleavi in fairytales, guess how easy they will be to fool).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another thing:

 

 

 

Germans are just to lazy concerning other languages. They dont do subtitles but just put german speak into the films...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One last thing:

 

 

 

There are definately more Dutch people playing RS (they got 6 servers!) then germans (just gotten 2!)

you all forgot about the main fact. we are not talking about players "from germany" we are talking about german speaking players ! that would involve austria and parts of switzerland as well as a small part of italy !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

im from austria and i never needed a german version because i understand like 99 % of the words in runescape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

of course most of the 13 year old kids understand some english but you shouldnt think that they speak english fluently

I think this is a good idea as it will help people learning German to imply it, it would be nice to know if anyone on tip.it are on the beta test?

I think German is useless, German people cant speak English soo good. But they made 2 extra beta worlds of RuneScape in German. Now 60 people online.... uhhhh, im Dutch and some Dutch people cant speak English as well so... if the keep German, the must make Dutch and more.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But if they do that, its useless again. Then would be all the servers apart.

 

 

 

Finland BETA

 

 

 

The Netherlands BETA

 

 

 

Chinees BETA

 

 

 

Australia BETA

 

 

 

Austria BETA

 

 

 

and more

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then they are going to put all in 1 together. And then is RuneScape back to normal. #-o

 

 

 

Sound weird but yeah... It could be.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SO, CHANGE IT BACK OR ADD A DUTCH DICTIONARY

It's only 60 players online because JaGeX chose 280 players to test it and nobody else can enter the servers. And you just have to wait for a dutch server to come... Maybe it will :)

I don't think any of the "symbol" languages will be used. Its hard enough for english letters to be mixed around to make a different language.
