I wonder if it is due to the agency agreement of Serenity in China? Frankly speaking, as is known to me, actually many "good"( here means real hardcore,not bots, noobs,farmers which are hated by all players on the earth) Chinese are very willing to play with all players from all over the world just because the languistic obstruction baffles them. EVE now has English,Russian,German and even Japanese(THIS IS NOT A DISCRIMINATION! Just point out that There are much fewer players from Japan than from China but they still have a customized language system.) As a Chinese player, I feel very sad about this because the majority of Chinese players can not have a chance to use their talents and skills to earn people's trust, to earn people's respect, to eliminate the unfair racial discrimination on Chinese players just because most farmers and RMT organizers are Chinese( As a true player, I HATE THEM just like you !). So I want to know the main reason for this. Thank you warm-hearted guys More details if possible.

Yes, there is no problem with the connection and the payment. Without an option of Chinese is pretty fine with me. For your country , French and all other western countries, English is not your native language, but it is widely used in your daily life so you have many many chances to speak it, whatever willing or forced. But The situations in China are kind of different. Only people with very good education or who once majored in English have the ability to communicate in English. And do you have an idea how many Chinese players are on Severity Server? About 3-4 times as big as Goonswarm regardless of inactive players!

But I bet you don't know unfortunately some good-skilled players still got very unfair treatment from their corp or alliance just because they don't think Chinese players are good or worth respect. those matters are widely known among Chinese players.

Ahh, here it is. The plan to unite Serenity with Tranquility No need to cry discrimination etc.. My understanding is the seperate server thing is to accommodate some Chinese law. Also, the localization agreement with Optic might disallow localization in tranquility. First much obliged for the link and your explanation. But I think I have to correct one the most common mistakes----Chinese Cantonese is the most common dialect indeed, but Mandarin is the official language of China so that means every educated Chinese can speak mandarin and have a good understanding of it ,in contrary to the fact that only few people understand Cantonese regardless of it ranking first among dialects.

A good player is a good player in any case. There's probably running jokes or misconceptions about chinese players (as for any other country by the way), but when it comes to skill, gameplay and personality, it's in everyone's sight, so the nationality doesn't matter at all. If it does, it just mean that you're playing with xenophobic idiots, and should move on to a corp/alliance where people are not that blunt and narrowminded. Thanks.

You are talking about a game, i.e. about the localization of written language. And as far as I (as someone who has no idea about Chinese at all) am aware written Cantonese etc is a really modern fad and the written language has always been Mandarin (just like the written language to the spoken Romance languages continued to be Latin). Who cares whether people speak Cantonese if Mandarin is what they read and write? EVE isn't exactly known for having fancy voice-overs. Thx for your understanding. I think the topic about Chinese dialects should stop. This is off-topic and meaningless. Anyone who has learnt about Chinese will have no arguement on this.
