Ubisoft Assassin's Creed 4 language change

Closed
MRRICARDO

I pre-ordered AC4 on ubistore, with vpn connection to mother russia, taking advantage of the low price.

I received the game, downloaded it and installed it, but it's default language is russian. I've been digging around in the game folder, i noticed that all the language files are there (for english, spanish,...) but i'm not able to change the game to english.
It seams that it's language locked.

I've tried changing the values in regedit, to english, but without effect.

Has anyone face the same situation, and came across with a solution?

Thanks

Hope they ban your account...
But if you want a solution, contact their support and tell them you used a VPN to take advantage of a price bug

Nah.. I am not jealous o-o
I am not really interested in those two games to begin with XD
Seriously, who'd want to contact support and say they used VPN to buy a game?

It doesn't matter what you believe to be true but it looks like there is no point for us to continue this as you are not going to believe me anyway.

Thank you for your advice :)
I contacted the support team, and they sent me a new key.

Ask Steam Support to remove the game from your account and buy it again from another region with multi-langage support.

Not a steam game, it's from UbiStore!

I'm trying to avoid the support team, for obvious reasons!

I'm pretty sure the solution is "buy the non-Russian version."

Google provides a lot of potentially useful hits, but I'd be pretty wary of downloading files from some of those sources...

I also bought the game using the price glitch..and now after several hours its finally finished, started and got several bonus unlocks, i guess because of the Deluxe Edition. And my language is in my mother language German, as i putted the activation key it asked me what language i want to choose. So no Russian at all.

I also purchased the deluxe, but i wasn't asked for the key, the game was already in my games tab of uplay.

Can someone, with english language selected, upload the "DataPC.forge" file of the game directory, and post the link here??

I want to try if i can change the language this way.
Thanks

If you can't read Russian, don't buy region locked Russian games. Simple, no?
Russian region locked games often don't even have the other language files, even though it seems like they are there (I can't say 100% about AC4 though, as I don't own it).
You can most likely download the english language files and replace them, simplest would probably be to download a torrent of the game and install it in a separate folder, then replace language related files.

MRRICARDO, I think you're the only one that got the Russian-locked language version :P. Everyone I talked to received a ROW uplay key and could change to any language during the install.

Uplay offered me a language choice before installing the game. Try re-installing, perhaps? No Russian language was available, by the way.
