When i read this i got scared. I skimmed through the languages just thinking NO DUTCH NO DUTCH. Thank god they didn't do that. Sometimes i am happy to live in a country with a small language :D

Bah, german versions always suck... I guess i will buy the german version but download the english DVD images and play in english... Works well with most other games (at least SC1 and WC3).

Same here. The german versions don't really feel right to me.

I'm sad it isn't being translated to Swedish, hardly any games ever are. Except for children's games I've only played Dungeon Keeper and Shadowrun (SNES) fully translated to Swedish. Shadowrun was my favorite game when I was around eight years old since it was the only game that I could understand.

bump!::

for those who have tried the other versions please share your thoughts on unit sounds/unit names etc.

Compared to the english version, are there units that sound better?

I know a few people like Artosis that play on both servers but not sure if he plays with both English version.

Sorry for reviving this old thread, but I would like to know if we have some information about switching the language of Starcraft II.

I do not like the French version available here, and I'd like to know if I have to buy the English version from amazon.co.uk or I can simply buy it locally (and get my game faster) and language switch.

Also,does anyone know if Starcraft II will be available for download at the release date? I'd prefer to be able to get it right away in the proper version rather than wait for a long delivery

Thanks for your help.

Unless we've been completely misled, you can pre-download the english eu version already from the sc2 site, and activate it with the key of the box version you buy.

But I guess it's the same here in Belgium. When I go to the store all I see is French/Flemish language versions -.- no English option what so ever.

Guess I'll have to buy from amazon.co.uk like I do with all my games ;\

You obviously are in a Francophone environment, because: firstly, our language is called Dutch and secondly there's only an English language version for us. You just have to go to Flanders and there's the English version for you. Remember, our language is called Dutch! I know some people think we call our language Flemish, but that's just a divide-and-rule trick the elites have invented which the plebs blindly take over.

Anyway, I'm WAY too late of responding here, I just googled which language versions exist out of curiosity and I read your message. Other people reading me can see how's the situation here.

Also, if your country doesn't sell a specific language version, you can download the language pack you want. All the good.

Just needed to bump this. Don't know if that deserves a ban, I don't care.

Anyway, to go further on topic. Why does everyone hate his own version so much here? Are they so bad? No they aren't for the most part. What does suck is the fact that the title is in English (StarCraft, sometimes also the Wings of Liberty). What also sucks are the English names with a French/German/Spanish/other speech, makes it all the cheesier.

Also, indeed sad the Dutch lost their finals, didn't break the party in the Netherlands though.
