So yeah I see German. Everywhere. Checked my "English" setting and it's set to "English" but I see forum topic headings in German and topic descriptions in German.

Bitte helfen Sie!

    Ill throw my hat in the ring .. the ability to choose what language you view the forums in should be a made a priority. You will lose active forum members fast if they see it as a hassle to take part !!
    You may be entitled to an opinion .. but that doesnt mean others want to hear it !!

    Although forum navigating is still possible, it does make it rather annoying.

    I like Germans. French food is great, too. However, I don't prefer to see three instances of the same thing in three different languages. Please fix. Thanks!

    I completely agree, although I wasn't able to find anything in the settings to make it English. It was there when I first created my account but now it's gone?

    You'd think it would be the other way around, everything being english by accident

    Same here, a mixture of 3 different languages does not make things easier

    Seriously, I gave it a pass two days ago, but it's still not fixed. I don't speak French or German and can't navigate because of this.

    I'm pretty disappointed by this, I honestly have a lot of questions about this game, and I can't get any answers because I don't read German all that well.

    politically correctly asking to be able to limit languages displayed to those that I can understand

    you'd think some IP-based language localization combined with a profile options for language preference would be a no brainer for ANY multinational forum, let alone a for a MMO.

    That's... basic common sense.

    Hmm... not impressed by the overall product so far.

    Come on devs, separate forum directories based on language, so no one has to dig through forums looking for posts in a language they actually understand fluently.

    Maybe put floating, or locked, really just ANY kind of icon(s) on the page to indicate or switch to a particular language.

    Something like this?

    I do not even have the option of choosing a language. It just defaults to German.

    It does seem that once one picks the category of the subforum, the language selected is the one displayed:
    Forum (multiple languages listed)>subforum(multiple languages listed)>category (all one language)

  • NickTheButcher
    I'm having the same issue......there was another thread about it that I saw, which a mod closed without even addressing the issue. This is getting ridiculous.
