So trying to understand what you are saying. This game is in pre-alpha. There is no millions of people all up. I'm not sure on the back numbers or people interested overall. Even most groups aren't huge either. I'm apart of a pretty big duchy that all up hasn't broken 100 people. So looking around for a Russian group/clan that is 500 strong. Besides the why does it need to be that many? I'm not really up on EU server in general, to give you any sort of an answer of how many Russians there are.

There are a few different kingdoms on EU either way. I know they have some communities within them that don't speak English. Maybe one of them can reply if there is a group of Russians or not.

Not sure if you are asking for your own Russian server, since without the numbers, that won't happen anyway.

Which either way this game won't be massive. Which is fine, it's a niche game that not everyone will be into. Be better to join some of the EU discords channels, talk to them to see if you like them, there are other Russians around.

I mean not a clan of 500 people and the community. The largest community on the VK site (like Facebook but in Russian) or to call another group makes a total of 500 people. When viewed as a whole for all groups on this site interested in playing people they are not more than 1000. Clans no none at all. And then to look at the topic of only one clan there are more than a thousand views... we Have a fan site but judging from the forum where the total number of messages... all 59. 59 pathetic messages on the only Russian website on the game. I understand that the game is in its pre-alpha stage but if you compare the interest of Europe and Russia... All very sad. The developers to my knowledge plan to access multiple servers, each for any nation and maybe a few for one. And plans to be online in 30 000 people on each server. Here my concern question what are the plans of developers to Russia... I really want this game. This is exactly what I wanted not one year! But the game not really knowing the language... it was already such practice... Barely gathered a clan of 30 people but... the situation is such that the entire game is closely tied to the interaction with other players and constant communication. How to communicate without knowing the language? My English is quite limited... not Enough that you do not want to sit with a translator while playing duck and even the lack of Russian players just kill the whole interest in the game. Especially that no Russian translation there is a small increase in online if not at a loss will go. Even assuming that someone can make a custom translation(it is not clear how much text will be in the game)... it won't. I very much want this game. And much would like to learn about the plans of Russia. I understand that the developers won't answer but... all of a sudden. Where else should I ask

There are some Russian speakers in the EU server in the Kingdom of Tryggr ;)

https://chroniclesofelyria.com/forum/topic/9507/eu-kingdom-of-tryggr

Visit the link above then click the discord link. They should be able to tell you who to speak to :)

If you're happy with something like a Siberian mountain range in the background, that's the environment they are looking for as vikings.

I expect subscriber numbers will increase dramatically at launch, and server numbers will probably have to be increased, or scaled up with new continents etc.

At present, 4 servers are planned, supporting 100k players each.

They aren't advertising much yet as the game is still pre alpha.

A handful of Russian does not correct the situation. Then you need a full community. A different play will be just not interested. Let me correct... the Online 100 000 where 70 of them NPC. Advertising is not advertising... In Europe, has already collected a few thousand players and we have... Usually all new bite like hyenas. It is strange like that. So concerned with this question.

Broke eyes? XD

Let me re-word that.

There are no big Russian communities YET. You are a pioneer :)

There WILL be Russian communities. I have been told some of Tryggr speak Russian AND english and can translate. I am already encouraging them to support a Russian community already, as I noticed you aren't well represented yet :)

I believe they plan to do as you asked above :) I have suggested they look for and advertise for other Russian speakers on the forums, and advertise the game in Russian to help build numbers :) This will help to form a good sized community.

Well... Hopefully. But it's still strange...

Привет Axegamer,

Отвечу на пару тем поднятых тобою.

1. Небольшое кол-во Русскоязычного комьюнити.

Да, на данный момент нет королевств полностью состоящих из русскоязычного населения, но есть графства и города предназначенные для них! У нас в королевстве Arkadia быстро наращивается кол-во русскоговорящих людей. На самом деле, неудивительно что нет королевств состоящих из французов или немцев и это понятно т.к. все говорят на английском языке и проще набрать людей под свои знамёна используя его.

1. Русская локализация.

Есть много примеров игр которые выпускались на английском и никто в России до их выхода ничего не слышал, а начинал реагировать когда заходила речь о локализации и покупки прав какой нибудь mail.ru , а мы знаем что мэйл=зло. При наличии коммерческого успеха и при условии большой популярности русскоговорящих игроков появится локализация. Но я думаю это ограничится переводом интерфейса и тд. надеюсь нас не отправят играть на отдельный сервер, да я думаю это маловероятно (потому что в игре сервер рассчитан на ООООЧЕНЬ БОЛЬШОЕ кол-во человек), но все же. Ведь так много плюсов от игры на английском сервере с иностранцами.

Как итог можно сказать, что со временем после выставки в марте, альфы и тд интерес только возрастет и не только у русскоязычного комьюнити, но и в мире в целом. Главное что бы все удачно прошло на выставке. А вообще заходи к нам мы всегда рады новым людям в нашем Королевстве!

Плохой был опыт игры в ММО на американском сервере... Чисто из-за языкового барьера было много неудобств... Русское сообщество конечно хорошо но... Ну представь ситуацию в том что... в клане, королевстве или ещё в чём то тебе просто не комфортно. Причин может быть масса. И тебе просто не куда будет идти. Просто для примера в Arhe Age фарм всего самого лучшего только при помощи клана. А когда играл там я ВСЕХ боссов и ивенты фармила вражеская фракция к которой просто не перейти. Это невозможно. Эти черти ВСЕ летали на глайдерах с кракена и с пушками с него. И прочими плюшками. А мы... По сравнению с ними просто мясо. Что хочу сказать. Если не будет выбора куда податься это будет очень печально... Создавать своё сообщество тоже мало вариантов ибо это всё таки малая активность... Плюс... да тут много причин почему маленькое русское сообщество среди множества иностранцев очень плохо... Ну... буду надеяться что к релизу всё будет. А ещё лучше бы к ЗБТ...
