Please no automatic language selection on install


Recommended Posts

You confirmed you're going to make the translations so please don't install the game automatically with the language setting from the Operating System, time zone o whatever.

 

I'd like to choose easily to play the game in English. I found annoying to install a game, it's automatically choose one language and I've to fight to change that setting.

 

Just make an splash screen with language selection. Thanks.

i have not seen a game with the mechanic you describe so far, but i bet you are talking about one of EA's abominable ideas

The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder.

We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did.

THIS!

 

Dark Souls did this (the only way I could play this game in English was by setting my whole computer's language setting to English, for god's sake) and I had a few others where the language selection was an option hidden away in the .ini files. I hate this, it drives me crazy.

Even better then this, we can have a language selection box available in options to mess with when the game is already installed, not previous to it.

This is the best option but I 'll happy if the don't expend any resource in an automatic selection and just build a box with the language selection. :)

Yup. You had to do a great deal of playing around to have Mass Effect 2 in English and it only worked for the Collector's Edition for some reason. Even worse with C&C4.
