Like this


It may be possible to monitor such situations and suggest changing the nickname in the game, but only for it, without changing the nickname on Steam

Well, either maintain the same nicknames as Steam

According to the developers this is as designed.

Such nicknames are not displayed in the 3D world.

Is this really intended?

Yes.
Not all characters, but most expected characters are supported, in order to keep the font to a minimal size.
For the asian font, the language has to be changed so the asian font is used.

Some characters from different languages like japanese can only be displayed correctly, if your game is also in the correct language. This is due to some languages using different fonts.

If such a nickname is used, then the game will be empty and players will think that this is an enemy in someone else's uniform.

Maybe at least track such cases and suggest changing your nickname before entering the game server?
