Extreme language Filter (Censor)

Me getting raided by Scout and many Villagers die and get slaughtered. Blood and Corpses everywhere

  • No Censorship.

Me typing: **** * **** ***** *****

  • Full Censorship, no bad words allowed Young Padawan.

(What i actually wanted to write: “■■■■ I hate scout rush”)
Love it!

cu means asshole in brazilian portuguese.

we are being censored in all languages so we cant even say things that means nothing in our native because its swearing on whatever language.

its so bizarre.

■■■■. So the censorship caused me to learn a new insult that I wouldn’t have learned otherwise. You can’t make some of this stuff up.

Just want to post on here to add that this profanity filter is terrible and should be eliminated, ASAP. I can’t believe with all this negative feedback they haven’t gotten rid of it yet.

Results of poll are very clear

The letter “i” is censored :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
Type “i” and get “*”

“I found their market” = “* ***** ***** ******”

Come on guys… saying fuc* is one thing but honestly though fix it. Also “wtf” & “basssstard” (extra “sss” added to avoid ironic censorship here) shouldn’t be considered extreme language.

it seems like the profanity filter is totally out of control. Regardless of current bugs it seems nobody has asked for this and it has been forced on the community.

“1” and “I” are censored. Could be more ridiculous?

About half the messages are currently censored for me, for apparently no good reason. Simple things like “1”, “11”, any sentence containing “i” is being censored. It seems like sometimes other players can read my messages even if they’ve been censored for me as they reply to what I said, maybe the reverse is true. This makes team communication almost impossible.
Today I noticed even my ingame name “Ocean Wizard” was censored.

It’s not even consistent. Played with my buddies last night. My buddy’s username is “llamabeard”, it was censored to me in about 1/3rd of the games. My own name OlafKForkbeard was censored to me about half of the time in game.

I was unable to issue a GG in chat. “GG, that was pretty rough.” I guess context doesn’t matter to the great censor. “Pretty rough” is the offending portion I’m guessing.

Is this a contract with the XBox owned portions? It’s pretty dumb whatever it is.

And lastly **** * **** ****.

this is super annoying, because it doesnt make any sense most of the time. sometimes my own playername is censored, other times not. even “1” or “gg” gets censored. in a lot of teamgames i cant communicate with teammates because of it. pls fix

yes. this happens arbitrarily to me as well. no matter in which language and what I write, it is simply censored. even my gamer tag is censored during the game!

i’m too regret to purchase DE… they wont let us to block unwanted players, plus even i type “i” i got censor… really?

If you are playing on Steam, then signing out of xbox live account in main menu makes game use Steam filter instead of xbox live, which is much more reasonable according to players reports.
