Hi

My first language is German. On the European server you need English, unless you only want to play with other Germans. I personally have no problem with using English.

It is usually only the French and the Germans who specify the language in the name of an open game.

I have to admit it is usually the 1337 version/dialect of English e.g. "WTF u suxxor n00b", on the other hand if you are partying with seven Finns and they stick to Finnish even leet English comes as a relief :rolleyes:

Hope this was helpful
