Strategy, feedback, or anything SUBTERFUGE-related

  • Hey there,

    First i've got to say I love this game !

    I think it could be a good idea to transalte the game in several languages so it could reach more players and help the devs :)

    I'm french and some of my friends don't speak english well enough to jump into the game.

    The community could help to translate all the text in the game. I'm volunteer with two other players to do it in french :)

    An option, with a flag or something like that, to show all players what language you speak could be good too. So you could start games and be sure you can understand all the other players.

    What do you think about that ?

  • Its a great idea, however it would take a lot of work to implement it. It would probably also include an update, which I'm not sure the devs will be doing again any time soon. What you could do is translate some of the wiki pages that teach people, so your friends could learn how to play. It would still take a lot of work to do. If you were really into doing it, it would be really helpful for people!

  • It's great that you love this game enough to make a translation. The only problem is that the devs will not implement anything new to subterfuge. A in game translation is not possible if only because the won't be anymore updates. What you can do is translate the subterfuge wiki and rules to French.

  • As you can see, (and as mathwhiz has already pointed out) creating a wiki would help, as the Germans have already (check the "German wiki is live topic :) ) When writing the wiki, you can just translate all the text of the English version (I mean, its not copyrighted or anything)
