I don't mean to be racist or rude, but it's getting annoying and they laugh about it when they remove me from the party. One reason was cause I didn't speak Spanish, the other was from a Brazilian guild but he ditched me and called me noob, and then two more for no reason at all. I mean it seems like they want to play with their own kind or something, it's just annoying to join a server where people don't want to play with you, haha.

I mean I've heard of one guy getting kicked out of a Japanese server in Resident Evil 5 cause they wanted a Japanese speaking person as well. But still, in my experiences, I've seen Asians laxed about kicking people. And keep in mind I hardly played with Spanish much, since we often don't see them type in Spanish. Ones that aren't in a group are okay, we let them play.

Hit the Escape key to bring

Hit the Escape key to bring up a menu. Look through the tabs for one that has "party with any" make sure it is not clicked. If it is clicked that is probably your problem, if it is not then I have not a clue.

He's kinda asking for that,

He's kinda asking for that, but instead of "only his language", he wants "anything but language X". I think. OOO woudln't impliment that becuase it would "look" racist.

RACISM!! :O (just kidding)

people may want to be able to comunicate to the ones they are playing with, so that can be one of the reasons they kicked u, the other may be that ur joining a group of T3 guys trying to do a FSC run, and ur gear is low star(or not the adequate for the run) so they kick u. Anyway... if u want to play with your own "kind" (lol that does sound racist) there's an option in the menu that says something about joining groups that speak different language than u, make sure u didn't activate it by accident.

BTW... I speak spanish too, and i have no problem when it comes to playing with people that speak different languages, in fact, i use the english forums cuz thers moar activity here :P

Thanks for the help guys. I

Thanks for the help guys. I know it sounds bad and all, but I mean I just want to lessen clashes with players that don't want to play it right with you. Funny thing is, I played my first game this morning and it turned out to be more spanish people calling me puta and gringo, saying revive the gringo, etc. They must've viewed this topic before I joined them, I revived them and all before being aware about their knowledge of this topic. Just means I underestimated how many people actually lurk on the forums.

I just find it funny if it was Spanish, but more so if they are Latinos, the group I'm not trying to target. Why put down an Asian? Well anyway, don't want stuff to hit the fan so, I'll just stop here.

It wasn't my gear at all, I just don't know what it is that I run into this problem. Heck I've even gotten kicked in a Jelly run where I had better 3* equipment than the other members, most of whom had 2* gear, judging by the exterior. I had inspect on with an autogun CTR vh, even though it's not an apt weapon for the stage.

Anyway, I didn't know that the "party with any" button meant to exclude certain language servers, as it doesn't seem to specify which ones we could filter out. I guess it programs the nearest regional language to where you're located by default?

Trying

There is no "language server"

Juances

Some spanish people prefer to play with the game in english, (I do since i find some translations awkward), etc so a way to ignore those with spanish settings wont compeltely remove the problem anyways unless there was some sort of IP based filtering.

I find younger teenage South

I find younger teenage South Americans to be the most hostile group in any game in terms of how quickly they band together to insult people from other places and generally not giving people a fair shake, assuming that anyone who isn't from the same place as they are is an arrogant jerk (hypocritical). I've known plenty of South Americans who don't fit that bill, too, and are very friendly people, but the people I usually come into conflict with online tend to throw out the "putas" and "gringos".

SK has it set up as "party with my language or all languages" right now, but there is a case to be made for having checkboxes for different language servers. After all, if you speak three different languages then you might want to have the option to party with any of those and still end up in a group that you can communicate with.

I heard that at TIER 3 "Party

I heard that at TIER 3 "Party with any" is forced by system, to make sure there will be enough players to play with, in case that there will be noone with language you use, is that true?
