Language Change automatic

[Nelson McMahan]

Since I bought the game, the written language changes automatically ingame after about 30 minutes and when I want to reset it, the language displayed in the menu is not the one displayed in the game. for example, english becomes french, german becomes russian, etc. Then I have to restart the game after about 45 minutes and if I'm unlucky, there is no writing in the menu and the main menu is empty.

Can anyone tell me what to do about this? I have already written a support ticket to ubisoft but so far no answer.

I have the same issue, I went into the settings after and anywhere i can determine a language setting I set it to English even though it's clearly not English.. maybe Italian?

Same here just did it to me, out of the blue, from English to Spanish. I cannot read Spanish this was after playing for over 2 hours this morning with no problems.

i just had this happen also, for some reason the game has de-synced the langugages, i swapped through them for a bit in gameplay settings, and suddenly the French option made everything english (i think my english had been swapped for spanish)

edit: it since changed AGAIN to everything being ?????, and english had moved down the list to Polski

Same here. I play it in German and suddenly it changes to italian. After changing the text language to simplified chinese it's in german. Italian option changes the text to japanese....
something's not right here...

I was playing in multiplayer...

Just happened to me - all of a sudden, all the text changed from English to Italian. When I went into the settings, everything was still set to English. Very weird!

I closed the game and restarted it and played fine after but in MP that's a pain for sure
