Why are acronyms like “lmao” “omg” etc. censored?
Flamer and kill too, which is rather hilarious in a 40k game
I guess you have to ask Tencent. Lmao.
are there maybe weird languages where these would have a different meaning?
“Orgyn” is also blacklisted for whatever reason… (at least for name selection)
There’s some really problematic stuff happening with Fatshark. As someone else here pointed out, a lot of the crazier things going on are due to Tencent. Their ownship of the company that does the “anti-cheat” software is a huge problem. We can’t even use the word “fat” without it being blurred out. Tencent’s software is unoptimized and I’d have to imagine that it’s the reason for some of the overpolicing and suboptimization we’re seeing.
No mod support, censorship, invasive anti-cheat. Fatshark built up a fanatically loyal following, and now they’re enacting anti-consumer friendly practices that break my heart.
Censorship is super odd in this game
Even my nickname is censored
Add “sniper” ^^
Yeah very weird words are being censored…
Wait, so the developer is called ***Shark now? Or is ‘shark’ off-limits too?
