Once again, I’m not asking for the translation of the game and Russian/ Mongolian/ whatever support. Most people who play the game already have decent skills in English/French/German/Spanish the game was translated into and won’t bother support in their native languages any more they are bothering now.
And by the way you can get an answer from support if you write in Russian already.
For those of you who are afraid of scary cyrillic letters haunting you around Tyria, there’s always a block button available, which should be sufficient imo.
And it’s not about only cyrillic letters, a full unicode support would’ve been nice.
I’m aware that there could arise some scamming possibilities involving cyrillic/ arabic/ chinese/ whatever guild names or whatnot, that’s why I’m suggesting the chat support only.
I can see this just being a pain to look at for western players (in map chat for example).
Besides, what makes you better than players from other countries with different alphabets? Why should cyrillic be added if for example, arabic hasnt been? Russian pride?
First of all, I don’t get it what pride are you talking about. It’s all about players’ convenience and we here are pointing out a problem that is affecting a significant part of the GW2 community.
Secondly, what is suggested will affect only guild/party/whisper chats and won’t have any effect on map chat, btw it is already filled with German/French/Polish etc messages and I don’t mind at all. If you do, there’s “English only” filter just for your needs.
Finally, you may start your own thread and suggest adding whatever characters you are in need of and I will fully support that, because diversity and flexibility are simply too good to miss out.
Cyrillic alphabet is not used only in Russian, but also in Belarusian, Bulgarian, Serbian, Macedonian, Ukrainian, Moldovan, Kazakh, Uzbek, Kyrgyz, Tajik, Tuvan, Mongolian and other languages. By the way, in 2007 Cyrillic became the third official alphabet of the European Union.

I don’t get it. Is it really that hard to add cyrillic letters to use exclusively in guild/party/whisper chats? Wouldn’t that attract more loyal newcomers to the game? For three years we wait to no avail. Some other MMOs at least have unofficial cyrillic chat support via patches.
