    Achievements show up in the wrong language


    Unlike the rest of the app, achievement titles and descriptions ignore the system's language setting and show up depending on your IPs geo-loc. (This only applies to achievements that have localized versions of course. For example Destiny)

    Achievements pop up in the wrong language

    I am sick to the back teeth of this. I do not want my Achievements in French. I live in Belgium and my language preference goes something like English, Flemish, Almost any other language in the world, sign language, then French.

    My xbox account is set to UK but for some reason my console achievements are in a language I do not understand, this means knowing what to do to earn them without running 2 computers is not possible.

    So what is my motivation to continue chasing achievements in French....Zero.

    It happened to me with destiny........I spent an evening with Microsoft to eventually be told it was the developers fault... well I complained to Bungie and.........absolutely nothing.

    Yet like a fool I keep coming back to my abusive relationship.

    So I accept Bungie must have been in the wrong as MS said so....however when I started ME:SOM the same thing happened...cheevos in French... hmmmmmmm.

    Then today CODAW also in French so either ..

    1. I was being told a lie by a MS employee which my heart cannot believe or 2. Bungie have leaked damaged code to all other developers.

    So now I have 3 games showing it is not the developers MS how about you decide to fix this issue?

    How about an option to choose Achievement language?

    Better still how about having my account language be used to determine the achievement language.

    Also from Belgium.. having the same issue. I had this since the beginning, it never really bothered me because it used to be only the zune store that was french (never bought anything, well played ms). But now it's the achievements and that's really frustrating.
    Why can't I just choose my language, like all other consoles let me do?

    Try sending them a tweet. They answer pretty quick - great service really - but they have no idea how to solve the problem. Maybe if a few people talk about it, they might fix it. That being said, the problem has been here since the xbox 360 launch.

    unfortunatly current Region and languages are very limited, you can only Chose what is offered.

    With me my achievements ( not all of them) and xbox video along with some other things are in French

    Now the other day Microsoft contacted me again saying they will need access to my account etc... won't be able to use it for a day or so while they are trying to fix the issue.

    First email received sep12 last so far nov8 so progress is being made and I have faith it will be resolved for me and afterwards even for more people. Gonna ask for a possibility to ask the higher ups to enroll the fixed solution to more people as I know
    a lot of Belgians and Canadians have this issue (as they are bilingual) and now seeing that V Rage also has the issue while he's from the UK I have no clue what's going on anymore

    But it's not only the game dev who's at fault apparently, since also Xbox Video is in French with me
