ARma 1.05 and language still Locked |-[

[Giova_BLH]

I'm absolutly FURIOUS !

In opposite of what has been said, the patch 1.05 doesn't Unlock all languages ! it just unlock english language. I have bought German Arma just when it was released around 3 month ago. I knew that it was fully bugged, not finished, and accepted that because i'm fan of OFP/Arma since the beta demo of OFP.

So i was one of the first customers to give the money, and what do i have Back? a version that (exactly as OFP) contains all languages, that can technicaly let me acces to my own language. But there is a F....NG commercial restriction that punish me to had paid the game first !!!!

that's why i am so sad, feel to has been Abused, and come here to complain agains that.

So what i am supposed to do? pay the game Twice? NO WAY !!! i'm not Edmond Rotchild

So i hav no other solutions than :
1) Steal the game in a shop of my country
or
2) modify .pbo to toggle languages, and so , be considered as a cheater, cannot read briefingFrench.

That's great

PS : of course i tryed to force into arma.cfg
language="French"; deleted all directories, registry entry, made many uninstall/reinstall
but that F....K commercial protection is well made because when i do that, the game becomes German again I'm REALLY FURIOUS about that!!!!

i understand your anger, but i believe that initially nobody said you would later be able to choose your language. so at the time we bought the German version there was no promise that you could change it to any other language later. why did you still buy the german version, then? you know that there is a French version out, don't you?

What's the big deal in releasing 'one' universal ArmA version with selectable languages anyway?

All these version = much more work

That could have been possible, with one big worldwide publisher.
Now there are many different contracts between BIS and the various publishers.
That`s the problem.

but Morphicon, for example, could have included both the translated German version and the original English version. i don't know why the hell they had to translate Marian Quandt. with patch 1.05, i can switch from German to English, but that darn reporter keeps speaking German. it makes no sense.

What about me ?

I bought both German AND French version game, installed on 2 computers.

I want that with the "german" LEGIT and PAID CDKEY I can play the FULL French version.

But French install with this key gives me only... german and english language... WTF.

Why this stupid locking ?

you guys seem to understand english just fine, what's the problem?

Indeed. I would rather play all my games in English instead of my own language. English is for computers, German is for machinery and French is for... ordering expensive meals.

indeed, i am very thankful that the new patch allowed me to play my german game in English, i almost thought about ordering an english copy. that is one of the many great improvements of the patch.

Is it possible to modify the .csv files in the language.pbo? Maybe take the "French" word collumns and paste them over the "German" collums...
