Duty Finder tip: How to get more groups.

[Zfz]

Actually that is a mistranslation.

In PC Search, if you edit your search info, the tooltip for the language tags say "languages available to the player" which really can be explained into anything we want. But a look at the Japanese version shows the true intent of the language tags:

対応可能な言語 = languages you can correspond in

The language tags are like a label that says, "hey, I can speak these languages!"

Obviously, there's no tooltip on the language tags for the Duty Finder, so I suppose people will argue that it's for a different purpose.

I'm not trying to prove anyone wrong or anything. Just pointing out something that many may have missed.

It must be pretty much only an NA/EU problem, because I have never run into a JP who was upset that I did not speak their language. Matter of fact, they were always more forgiving and patient and helpful to non-speakers. If someone is offended that you are checking their language and don't speak it, I think that is a problem of themselves, and not you.

Just because they don't say it in English that you are annoying to them, doesn't mean there isn't a problem. If you knew any Japanese you'd very much know how upset and angry 90% of Japanese players are when they are paired for foreigners who cannot speak a word of their language.

There was a reasonably long thread in the Japanese forums that was specifically how being paired with English players in end-game content was making a lot of J players just up and drop duty/immediate kick anyone who were marked as E/did not respond in Japanese.

One problem they laid out was that strategies differ between J and E. Just because you know the dungeon (on end-game content) doesn't mean your strategy 100% meshes with everyone else in the group.
