Chinese character name. - Guild Wars Forums

I just want to know why can't I make a chinese character name?
I search in the PlayNC support but I don't find my answer and search in the forum too.
When I go in Internationnal District I see players with chinese character, when I tried to make one, there is that sentence : "This name may use only English letters."
My computer has chinese police and i can make too ==> 我是 Steph (I am Steph).
So where is the problem?

It's just a guess... but you might need a Chinese version of the game.

I assume its because your not chinese, playing a chinese version of the game. Its location related to distribution (Apart from Australia and New Zealand) S I guess you live somewhere that only the english version are released.

Short answer, buy a chinese version and then get stuck playing on the restricted chinese servers.

Oh okay.. that's bad

Thanks for your support.

Well, since all the changes, I'm not so sure about that. Maybe if you change your region to china, you can do a chinese name. It's worth a try I guess.

Well, I thought about it Commander but how can I change my region? I only see Europe, International or America.

Commander Ryker · Sep 16, 2007, 07:30 PM // 19:30

I just looked and I guess you can't anymore since they changed it.
