World of Warcraft Coming to Brazil

World of Warcraft Coming to Brazil

We’re pleased to announce that World of Warcraft is coming to Brazil, fully localized in Brazilian Portuguese. Gamers in Brazil will be able to purchase localized versions of World of Warcraft and its expansions digitally and at retail later this year, while existing players on the North American realms will be able to download a free Brazilian Portuguese language pack. We will be opening up new Brazilian Portuguese realms as well. For more information, please see the press release.

Brazilian players are just.. bad.
Have yet to meet a decent player from a BR server.
Horrible dps, blood DK's in cloth etc.

How are people complaining about this?! It's just bringing more people into wow and even if the speak a different language were on separate realms, How often do you meet someone who speaks a different language then you?! I have played for 6 years on american servers and have never met someone who did't speak English to me!

I have to agree with all the people talking about "language issues". I really don't want to be in a new dungeon and some brazillian is saying (idk brazil language so this is jibberish) Blef geh jek ih. When translated that would mean "Really hard boss is coming this way, and your right where he is headed."

@Swiftice: At portuguese "Really hard boss is coming this way, and your right where he is headed." is: Um chefe muito forte esta chegando na direção a qual você esta indo".

@Crarrosh: Either way, how would this help them or the players who speak English, or another language for fact?

I am ashamed of all the Americans in here spreading hate speak, and appalled at the Brazilians who are doing the same. We all love the same thing, so that should be enough to prove that we aren't that different.
Either way, I went through the comments and reported everyone who was speaking out with racism. I am asking anyone who reads this to do the same. Thank you.

I'm going to miss my neighbours from the south... Nothing is quite as fun as saying you're going to pee, then come back to a wipe. I'll miss blaming language on that. :(

This works, a language barrier is STILL a barrier and upsets gaming across all boards. Kudos for more localizations.

They are changing it so quit trolling. U.S servers should not be speaking in this matter because U.S has had, and is still having it's own problems with racism, so sorry Brazilian wow players.

@Killabee: Way to make it a race issue. If anything it's more a language issue because I'm for one tired of getting into a group where language will be a problem.

Hahhaha I know I'm way too late but there's some awesome things in this topic.

"We don't mesh well with them" "Now I don't have to deal with them" etc.

I got trolled by so many americans and people from everywhere, I mean, so much more than brazilians, way more, and I don't say things like that. Why? Cuz it's not true.
It just happened cuz there's way more US players where I was playing than any other country.

These kind of ppl just want to blame someone, generally saying. Even you who's talking !@#$ about this, do you realize that you got "trolled" by ppl of ur own nation 90% of the time? You just don't realize that. You don't need to and you don't want to, just want to complain and move on.

PLEASE Iam begging you to make them all have their own servers and completely segregate them from the US population. I have seen WAY too many games (once opened up to south american populations) get completely over run with spanish speaking or other various languages. It really sucks being unable to communicate with half the people on your team, group, raid, etc etc especially when their on English Speaking Servers. Even giving them their own servers usually does not work because they typically come to US servers anyways just because of the higher population levels on the US servers.

This may sound rude but it would have been nice for Blizzard to stick the new Brazilian realms in their own battlegroup, rather than ours. I've noticed a lot of them are rather rude. For example, 90% of the time one American/Canadian ends up in a random dungeon group with 4 Brazilian players, the one non-Brazilian is going to get vote kicked or made fun of for not understanding their language. It's pretty bad. I don't typically have this problem with non-Brazilian groups unless they're people from the same guild.

Eu estava com duvida, quanto ao jogo mesmo, tipo eles vão disponibilizar algum "tradutor" pra colocarmos na pasta do jogo e só vamos precisar escolher o servidor é?

Bem...existem motivos para WoW vir para cá.....4,6 milões de usuários do Facebook, 70% dos usuários do orkut, 38 milhões de conexões banda larga, cresciento econômico, desigualdade social (sim, está acontecendo) diminuindo...industria de games crescendo assustadoramente. Brasileiro é um dos mais procurados lá fora quando se fala em tecnologia (apesar de ser caro para nós)...
Virão os noobs, virão os "conta gratuita", os "DK até morrer", virão os nerds, os fãs de RPG (eu)...mas dentro do jogo, você será seu "Char", isso não vai fazer diferença...
Pra blizzard, aqui é lucro, pra nós um alívio...financeiro principalmente...

north americans are so overrated, i am so glad that i'll have our own servers cuz when i say that i am from brazil, all people from NA starts to kick me from groups.
NA people dont know how to live with other countries. So let them play among themselves and they will see that WoW is nothing without other countries
