Make Death Messages Gender Neutral.

[ian]

Minor thing, but (for example) if you get killed by 049, it says 'He was cured of a plauge'. This overlooks the fact that quite a few female people play this game, even if not the majority. It's a simlpe fix, we just need to change it to say 'They were cured of a plague'; 'They were torn to shreds by 096', etc.

I've edited the translatons file, all that needs to happen is to use it for release.

Died of an explosion.
The fall has ended their life.
Died to re-contain SCP-106.

It's a remnant of SCP-106.
High-voltage electric shock.
Crushed by a heavy structure.
There are many gunshot wounds on the body. Most likely, a [ammotype] ammo type was used.
Snapped neck at the base of the skull.
Did not survive the meeting with SCP-106.
They were cured of a plague.
Unknown cause of death.
It's <b>[user]</b>'s body, they were [class]!\n\nCause of death: [cause]
Was torn to pieces by SCP-096.

+1 I guess, though it's not really a priority right now

Not saying it is, but it's just a simple edit to a translatons file.

I was under the assumption that it didn't refer to the player's gender but the character they are playing....

Similar to how in MMOs if your character is a male it would say "He has" vice versa.

Being said - there haven't been any female models introduced into the game yet as far as I am aware. Which, would create a problem far more significant than just a simple edit to a translations file.

That's a good point. Then agan, it's not like it's wrong to call a 'he' a 'they', and it might make more players comfortable. Also (at least in my dialect) it sounds a lot more natural to call someone you're dissasociated with (aka someone on the street, refering to something someone did, or talking about a dead person you don't know) it sounds a lot more natural to say 'they' than 'he' or 'she'.

The moment this game goes full on pc is the day I stop playing it.

Anyway the characters are all male, so as long as there are no female characters this ♥♥♥♥ isn't needed.

I am not sexist. But this kind of fix is unnessary and a waste of time.

Plus there wasn't any female D-class in the original game not to any of my knowledge at least, maybe secret laboratory is trying to stay close to the game as possible or it's because the game is fairly new and there working on more important things than a female playermodel also it'd be harder to make due to women having a different bodyshape & curves so maybe it's not worth the time and effort to do so. I personally think they just have more important things to do right now rather than making a female playermodel.

Different model will be added at one point as I've heard but it ain't a priority.

lol females dont deserve this

I'm not adding this game to the femanazi conspiricy! It's just a simple edit to a translations file and some people might feel more comfortable because of it. I'm not requesting playermodels, just editing a few words in a file.

I've heard Hubert wants to make it his own game rather than copying CB.

Fun fact: There are already female playermodels! They were scrapped from the game while in development due to time constraints, but may likely be re-implemented some day. We can only wait and see. Look at the video if you want to see them.

I don't go on tumblr. Anyways, all I'm requesting is a 5-second-edit to one of the translation files.

What? It's a completely logical thing to ask for. They have the model, and it's fair enough if a female can use a female model. What part of this comes of as super crazy feminist? If anything, it's just adding more customisability to the game.

Also, lore has nothing to do with this, D-Class are criminals, females can be criminals too, I don't think the Foundation cares what gender you are, they are going to kill you anyway.
