Fawking Censor.
Am I the only one completey annoyed by the censor in games?
This game IS rated TEEN. So why are they blocking everything? JUST IN CASE some 10 year old decides to play it?
Basically, every swear word is blocked. Which is like, fine, whatever. But they've even blocked peoples attempts to avoid censor. You can't say n00b with the 0's, you can't say fk, you can't say t!t. It's annoying.
This also gets in the way of saying words that aren't meant to be like that. You can't say afk because of the "fk". You can't say muffin because of the m.u.ff It's ridiculous.
It also censores out when you're trying to say sentences. For example, the one I get most frequently is when I try to tell people to "whisper me" It blocks the spe.rm This also happens for many other sentences. This needs to be considered.

Anyone that requires the use of foul language to get a point across to another player should not be complaining about it. Foul language, as fun and envigorating as it can be to let out the occasional f*** y** to another player that does not mean it is polite or socialy acceptable. Sure if your playing with a friend this might be alright, but foul language is rude even if its not ment in a rude way, and i for one personaly thank Z8, The Developers, or whoever it is that implimented this feature because it creates a cleaner less vulgar community.
Thank you for making Crossfire a friendlier less vulgar experiance

Hm.. I respect your post. But doesn't it also cross out people who get so annoyed by the ridiculous extremes of the censor (among other things) that they uninstall?
Another thing, if they're going to block "n00b", they might as well block every possible form of the word, too. People are always going to come up with new variations of existing words, so it's pointless that they try to block it. They really should just leave it. It does, undeniably, get in the way of normal conversations.
Oh. And if "you can go ahead and delete your would-be rage post" was directed at me. It's not a rage post, thanks. It's stating my opinion of distaste towards the subject, which I am entitled to. -
If they censor English words why don't they censor Portuguese words? Such as AFF and FDP?
Actually they do censor some portuguese (and other language) words. You can't say put.a. Which, again, proves my point that it gets in the way of normal conversations. What if you wanted to say "put a hold on it" or something? It would look like "**** hold on it". It's honestly annoying. -

That's because pu.ta is similar to the spanish word "Pun.ta"...meaning azz.
And still, it's pretty much the only damn word...we can't say noob, but they can still get away with calling us TONS of words we have no clue what they mean... -
