CYRILLIC FONT IS TERRIBLE

Post » Mon Feb 15, 2016 2:29 pm

Please fix font in Russian version — it's terrible! There is exist the same font as in English version and you Bethesda used it in Fallout 4 Russian translation. But in official Android translation it uses just Arial! It's horrible and I get mad every time I see this. In English version it was so beauty. Even worse that THERE IS NO OPTION to switch language back to English, so if I have an Android device with Russian UI I must use Russian Fallout Shelter with horrible Arial font(((


Please fix the font and replace it with a cool new version of it with the next patch! Thanks!


Translation is fine, but horrible font kills everything.



P.S. I guess that this problem exists both on Android and iOS.

Have no idea, why they used current font with such abnormal spacing between letters. Even if because of their native font doesn't support cyrillic - Android has Roboto font.


Also: usually russian phrases are longer than english translations. May be it will be reasonable to use Roboto Condensed

Shelter uses special text-sizing algorithms so text over the buttons etc. becames smaller when it's wider. So wide text is not a problem, but the font is one. And again I'd like to say that Bethesda has a proper font inside their studio because localization for Fallout 4 fully support cyrillic in original font. If it was outsorcers who made localization you should ask them to retrieve that font.
