auberius Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Does anyone know if the game makes allowances in situations where players have a common language with other players of different nationalities on their team, even if they don't speak the team's home language? I've kind of presumed it does for years, but my latest signing (a Ukrainian-born Hungarian bought from France) inspired the question after I got asked about the language barrier in a press conference; I've got three Frenchmen and a Congolese on the squad and three of those start regularly, so there's French speakers there for him.

SCIAG Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 It certainly didn't in FM09- people complained about Arsenal's players needing English even if they spoke French. I don't know if that has changed, but I'm fairly sure it hasn't. One way of thinking about it- how's he going to buy things in shops, and stuff? It isn't easy settling into a strange country if you don't speak the language. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AjaxNo1 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Im guessing that helps him blend in, but there has to be a common language on the pitch, as half a team speaking french and the rest speaking English would get confusing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montanaro Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I don't know, the assistants always suggest you buy a player of the same nationality to help "so and so settle in", even if I already have people of his nationality on my team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novox Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 At atletico madrid, half my squad is portuguese after buying moutinho and veloso, and hulk and sandro was another portuguese speaking addition. Since half of the squad speaks portuguese, and I am not prompted about players having trouble communicating, I like to believe that its fixed.
