These were a feature I really enjoyed in RO:Ost. Will these be making an (optional) appearance in HOS? I thought they added immersion to the game and really added to RO's unique place among WWII shooters.
Native Role Names
- Thread starter Dr. Pierre Chang
- Start date
I hope they make it an option like in RO1. The default should be the dumbed down english translations (for accessibility) but should be able to be changed back to good old "Gruppenfuhrer" and "Strelok".

I'd be willing to bet the only reason we haven't seem native role names yet is that the only footage we've seen was being presented to the press; they probably wouldn't understand all the native class names. Also HoS is trying to be more accessible, so having the historical names in the PR might be a bit confusing to the people TWI is trying to reach.

no option please. just straight up russian and german names for each class for added authenticity and immersion. it's not like people will actually sit there crying their eyes out unable to quickly learn which class is which. i mean the inevitable crossover of call of duty players will probably be pretty dumb, but they can't be that dumb.

Oh they can be so dumb you first would imagine it's possible. They pull off nades and keep holding them until the bang! and then will shout cheater! at the enemy players with the highest scores.
But actually you're right, do we need those in the game? But on the other hand TWI might need the money and yet again why sacrifice something for newcomers?
EDIT: I just noticed something about the German smg trooper "Sto

Why not have an option, it is client side so it won't split community/servers and it adds accessibility for those who don't understand Russian/German or rather use English names.

I hope the game at least supports Cyrilic. I hate the damn ~~~~~~~ players, well, not them, but the fact that I can't read their nicknames :troll:

No i hope the game doesn't support Cyrilic, it's part of the RO feeling, same with the ROPlayer name:troll:

Since we've gotten the chance to play the Beta a bit and notice that there's no Native role names option I just wanted to bring this topic back up to remind everyone how cool that option is in case they aren't already planning on having it at release.
