How do I change the Origin Language when I cant read the menu system? For BF4 coming out...

Will be to do with BF4 in time ahead....

How do the hundreds of thousands of English speaking people abroad get Origin to appear in English LANGUAGE  in Origin when abroad ?

Most of us are unable to real a menu system not in ENGLISH.

E.g.

Some fans of the site live in Japan (for a long time), and cannot rerad Japanese chinese Kanji. The same goes for people working in any country usually.

Although this part of the site is in English; the downloaded Origin appears in Japanese for as here..... I can only read the first word of text like this which appears all over the program;- ニュースが世界中のニュース提供元から集約した広範囲にわたる最新情報.

????????????????????????????????????????????????

Stick an ENGLISH OPTION BUTTON on the Menu bar for EVERYONE IN THE WORLD TO BE ABLE TO USE. Pleeeeeeze.

Psssssst......Even non-English use English while abroad.

  • Hello,

    Origin linked to a country you live in, for for example i live in Switzerland and get to choose 3 countries languages : French, German or Italian , but you can always go to https://www.origin.com/de-de/store/ and use Google Chrome, so all your content going to be translated in English🙂

    Thaks for that; I was using Firefox, because I didn`t know Origin and EA were linked to Google Chrome for that service in the program itself.

    I tried it and not all of it gets translated. And where credit cards are concerned.............................

    I would still like to be able to select; and suggest EA and their distributors do that; because ENGLISH is the most Widely Used language on Earth, AND is the most prolific and widely used Second languge in the world, and SHOULD be provided in every country as the alternative language option.

    P.S. Chinese is only used in once coutnry really; so doesn`t count as a `Widely` used International language.

    An ON SITE Origin TRANSLATION button ain`t that difficult; and would help English to become used more widely and garner more CUSTOMERS who give up trying to use such services; when we don`t (didn`t) even know how to put in our credit card details....

    BECAUSE

    MANY parts of the websites are NOT TRANSLATED because they are ICONS/Images of words. They are not Text. Google does not translate pictures of UNREADABLE text.

    But thanks for the band-aid which millions of us cannot use much of the time.
