In order to mark this tremendous issue, I must point out, that Russian (available for Ukrainian region) localization of BF4 on it's part does NOT contain an option to install and play the game in English.That is one huge disappointment after a couple of months waiting for preordered game&premium package.Russian localization lacks precision (speech misses subtitles), it lacks emotion (voiceover is poor, and sounds totally dumb and fake), it lacks common sense (NPC's pronounce random unrelated stuff, while acting stupid). If it was just a matter of weak and forgettable campaign scenario, I could cope with that, but "Russian" level of game's localization provided,actually made me feel a certain relief, when,Spoiler (Highlight to read)I had actually blown the **bleep** out of than pseudo-Chinese chick.I had actually blown the **bleep** out of than pseudo-Chinese chick.Derivative localization, combined with a restriction to choose and play "default English" game, turned the campaign out to grotesque.It plainly makes me vomit, this way. Put it to the torch, and give me a choice to play the game in English, as it was originally intended to.Any feedback concerning terms of adding English language to the list upon installation, would be appreciated.

As you all know by now, EA/DICE don't care, actually did not care ever about random players.Most important thing is just to sell, and since this mostly hits PL/RU players they couldn't care less.

EA, there's more to say:Actually, it is not the matter of a price, more than a matter of a taste and reason for me,to be able to play smooth English version, instead of a crap Russian localization, performed by some dropout-wannabe-actors with no talent nor skill.I am willing to buy (i.e. to pay extra for) this English language pack, if you hereby generously refer to "not charging me as much as you wanted" at the beginning, as a "solution" for this issue, which I think, is nowhere alike a real one.Therefore, please, would you kindly provide me a language pack to buy via this Origin-called of a scam, for my digital game edition, with premium pack.Living in third world country doesn't automatically make up more dumb, than an average chav, as you hope us to be.Kind regards,

http://www.cjs-cdkeys.com/pages/How-to-change-Battlefield-4-Russian-or-Polish-into-English-%252d-language-pack-with-tutorial.htmlthis works right now perfectly and will work at least until they release the next update.

yea, file modification is a volation, so is being f**ked in the a** by EA.ENG is so far as we know base language for BF4, i guess not since not everyone can select it.I guess we are even.

No default English in-game language in Battlefield 4 upon installation. EA, srsly?

Come on, share some info on this indiscriminate in-game language policy, considering this crappy localization provided instead.

We are seeing a rising amount of contacts regarding Russian and Polish players wanting to exchange their Russian/Polish version of Battlefield 4 for an English copy of the game. This copy of the game that these players have purchased costs less than the English version, it does not have an English language track included on the install and this is working as intended. As such, you should under no circumstance exchange a Russian copy of the game for an English copy of the game.

This makes no sense. How would it cost more if these people were able to download the English sound files?

Many thanks, man. I've stumbled upon this temporary solution lately, but I also feel an urge to resolve an issue with a permanent one.
Besides, it seems kinda embarrassing to, well, "modify" in some way a product I've legally bought.

Just guys play with Russian language, I know it sucked for me too because it is not what it is, it doesn't feel how it has to feel.
