Guild Wars 2

Hey ArenaNet! How come Japanese Kana still doesn’t work in the chat log in GW2?
It works fine in GW1…. I like to practice my Japanese with friends while gaming. It would enhance my gaming experience by a lot. >_> Please I dont know chinese and I cant play the China GW2 version because they dont speak Japanese and my friends are in NA server.

Thanks!

Japanese isnt a supported language. That’s probably why it doesnt work.

But it is…. It just doesnt show up on chat log yet I can type it but shows up blank =(

If it doesnt show up in the chat log, then it means those characters are not supported. Whether or not you can type it is not involved.

We’ve run into something similar here at work. It boils down to the character set that is used to transfer text across the internet. The game itself is windows-based, and as such you’ll probably be able to copy/paste what you like into the chat box, but the character set used for communication is different and more limited.
