And expect people to understand them? If you don’t speak English please don’t use voice chat on an English speaking server

I’ve personally never seen that happen, but I’m sure it happens a lot in Europe.

I love it when people got strong accents and say something,and everyone on the team is like “What?”,but I understand it because it’s freaking obvious what they could be trying to say,but some people just can’t put it together.

There’s no such thing as an English speaking server.

It’s called “the american server” if anything english speaking users should use that one.If they expect to only talk to english speaking people.

NA servers cover Spanish, French and a whole host of Native American language regions.

They’re not defined as English speaking, anywhere.

Well they’re yelling heaps of callouts, which they wouldn’t do if they knew nobody understood them

No, this is on the Australian server, where it makes the least sense

Maybe they just have hope someone would understand. I can understand 5 different languages.

Some languages I can understand why people would be speaking them, like languages from Oceania, but I’ve had several people speaking Spanish recently. I know a couple of Spanish words, but nowhere near enough to understand what they were saying. The conversation went something like:
Them: Spanish
Me: espanol?
Them: si
Me: English por favor?
Them: more Spanish

I can understand that happening on The European or Asian servers where there are a whole bunch of languages, but what confused me was that this was the Australian server

Okay that’s strange, but there’s still no defining point of their being in any way strictly English speaking.
