I guess we get this idea from you implementing an unnecessary profanity filter when your game is not even a quarter complete on the multiplayer side of things. No one will enjoy your game more from this change, it is a neutral implementation at best and a disrespectful one at worst. Show less contempt for your fanbase and maybe they will respect you more.Where do you guys even get these ideas from? You do know you can disable the profanity filter on the forum, some of the mods do swear on occasion, and none of them are devs, right? Find another scapegoat to unload your frustration on.
It is necessary, I have had players call me a bad name countless times. We need to build a safe, inclusive community if we want multiplayer to thrive. This sort of toxic rhetoric is why Mordhau and Chivraly 2 exceed us in players. This filter needs to be enabled by default and no option to turn it off to prevent hate speech such as racial slurs, homophobic remarks, and other bigotry.I guess we get this idea from you implementing an unnecessary profanity filter when your game is not even a quarter complete on the multiplayer side of things.

Again: wasn't any of the mods, buddy. I'm just a volunteer mod from Kansas, almost on the complete opposite side of the planet from Turkey. None of the mods are employees, contractors, or otherwise legally bound to TW in any way. Strictly volunteer here.I guess we get this idea from you implementing an unnecessary profanity filter when your game is not even a quarter complete on the multiplayer side of things.

Also your filter is broken through writing in caps lock
people calling profanity filters censorship is peak NA, change my mind
Not a bad idea. Auto-mute for a short list of racial slurs would be fine, but unfortunately there are a few instances where racial slurs coincidentally appear in other, innocuous words such as sniggered. A simplified substring approach doesn't avoid false-positives like this, and is also easily bypassed (as Blücher noted) with things like CAPSLOCK, s p a c i n g, and character subst!tutions.IMO: fix basic issues (such as the harass example above), add a checkbox for mild/average swearing and just auto-filter racial slurs and the like, perhaps auto-mute for them.
If there was the option to have enable/disable profanity you could have your safe space all you want, asking for a "no option to turn it off" doesn't concern you, if you want it censored fine, good for you but must of us don't mind the profanity and hate the censorship.It is necessary, I have had players call me a bad name countless times.

"harrass" became "harr***", lol.
That's actually smart. It'ld be hilarous to see "I love you" messages from noobs who are mad at you.I used to play Rakion, a game from Softnyx, which used to be a very vibrant and living multiplayer game. It then added a profanity filter which made every swear word into LOVE.
The game died a couple years after.
Did it die because of the profanity filter or because the lack of innovation, introduction of pay-2-win and peer2peer servers? I guess we’ll never know.
Should this^ kind of dumb bulls**t be cencored? Yes....some edgy 15 year old write the n word 30 times...
thank you for adding this,The addition of the profanity filter makes sense to me. If someone wants to avoid all the cuss words while playing then why not provide that. I agree that it would be nice to have an option to disable it though. Relayed all of your other feedback as well, thank you!
The rating means anyone over the age of 13 can buy the game, so yeah they should be able to play this.Should kids play anything they can get their hands on? No.
Should this^ kind of dumb bulls**t be cencored? Yes.
Do we need a comprehensive profanity filter for that? No.
But honestly as long as we get to turn it off I couldn't really care less. Kinda fun tho how people are actually losing their minds over this.
Who cares about politics in a medieval game? When you start Bannerlord, do you think, oh man I cant wait to talk to people about american politics!@Dejan @Orion Is me saying that Donald Trump won the 2020 election and that there was election fraud across multiple states a bannable offense?
I don't care if there is a censor so long as we can turn it on / off. My biggest issue is the fact that you guys believe this is important, whereas we, the community, find that you developing multiplayer is important. And don't say that you have been because adding crushthrough and changing damage variables takes two clicks.
what kinda self centered take is that lmao, as if the only way you can let out your frustration is for everyone to be forced to see it.Occasional swearing is part of the game isn't it? Are we not allowed to feel a little frustrated anymore? Good think most of us don't play the game anyways XD
