Game developers never understand how important this is, yes, you know english, yes, there's a lot of people that knows english, but for example, Spain education makes english stupid, I can guarantee you that 90% of spanish people doesnt understand english.

I've tried to bring a lot of friends to this game and a lot of them say "It's in english", that's the first thing they see.

I offered myself a while ago to make a spanish translation, now that the new UI will came out, why not do it now?

It's really helpful.

Thanks for the reminder Traaz!

We definitely think about to fully localize the game in the main European languages soon after the release!

As long as they dont make a russian version...
(worst thing they can do to a game)

But most of the time localised versions will cause allienation.
Example if Language X is added people who speak language X and English will most of the times refuse to speak English.

In my country when I was at lower school we didnt even learn english from our teacher, but learned it by watching Cartoon Network and Movies.

At secondary / high school teachers got frustrated cause it was way to american-english haha.

The fact that some of your friends say its in english is already a bad attitude.
Assuming they get english at school its a great thing to learn even further, by playing games in english.

You're right, but believe me, you know about your country, I know about mine, and Spain has 1% english knowledges, a really big % of spanish doesnt even know what "Custom game" or "settings" mean, how will they know what runners or implants do?

It is important to translate the game, and it wont cause people speaking that language.
