PilaPis 4 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 It is good news! I hope they make new forum international. Link to comment
SX255 630 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 It is good news! I hope they make new forum international. Whats wrong with the current one? They have an International section on it - UNBENDED International. And many German fans don't speak English. And there is no shame in posting English stuff in German parts of it. How would you change it for the better? Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I can hardly wait! the old forum was making go crazy I love Xenforo, most of my friends' forums have already upgraded... we're considering it for DarkMatters as well, we have to see whether next iteration of IPB 4 is so ground breaking..and if now...we're gonna be the new people of the Xen!

PilaPis 4 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) It is good news! I hope they make new forum international. Whats wrong with the current one? They have an International section on it - UNBENDED International. And many German fans don't speak English. And there is no shame in posting English stuff in German parts of it. How would you change it for the better? Yea, I know that there is international section but making whole forum International would be better, since German Language isn't as popular as English.

gogoblender 3,042 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 HI Oemer, and welcome to DarkMatters! I actually like the different language sections, as it turns out, the German section usually does have a lot of content and is quite busy... for my own reasons regarding the happiness of the change is the basic functionalities of the software which they are using right now...it's not really forum software, just WordPress... as such, is not as intuitive for me to use as let's say Vbulletin, IPB (like ours) or Xenforo...the newest software that all big forums are switching to...you'll find that after they make the change, you'll be able to enter into a dedicated English Forum, easily and your experience will markedly improve. UnBended looking good! gogo Link to comment
PilaPis 4 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Thank you for welcoming sir. Yes, adding different languages makes forums richer but I'd prefer English as main language on forums. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 But if there is English Forum for this game, that means that you'll be able to use English and understand? If so, just put your book mark for english part of the new UnBended forum (That's what I do), and you'll be able to read, post and understand easily. German part of forum will probably be busier during the beginning because this entire franchise is German, but if you use your book mark that you can set yourself, you will be able to understand the smaller community that speaks English in the English forum...just like in the old Sacred International forum which had many different languages gogo 1 Link to comment
lujate 572 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 IMHO, as German company it is entirely reasonable for the default language to be German. As long as there is a "What's New" for English only, it will be fine. Link to comment
PilaPis 4 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That was just my opinion guys, I'm not forcing anyone to change main language from German to English Link to comment

FrankRentmeister 37 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 It is good news! I hope they make new forum international. YES! The new Forum is international English/French (planned)/German Link to comment
gogoblender 3,042 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Can hardly wait... Xenforo is first class forum software, we've been considering the switch for a while now...u guys are spoiling us! gogo 1 Link to comment
colif 36 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I can hardly wait! the old forum was making go crazy I know that its way too late for that. You been crazy for years. I assume its 13th August in EU time, so its the 14th for me... being in the future has its draw backs. It always happens, its the same on PSN too. Only sometimes do I get the 1 day advantage. I might join, I had over 5k posts on the Sacred forums (but quantity doesn't always equal quality) but I might wait till game is closer to reality. Link to comment
Knuckles 904 Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Well guess forum is updating...per translation: There are currently carried out maintenance work on the website. Please have a little patience. Link to comment
