EDIT: Problem solved. I hereby leave this thread to the trolls.


Is there a way to turn ALL localization OFF?

In the ingame settings, English was already selected when I checked, but speech, skill categories etc. etc. etc. were in German. I have never played this game in German and don't know the German terms. I don't want to read all the skill category names to find something that might mean "Gunnery". I don't even live in Germany, so I don't know why EVE still thinks I don't speak English.

Even the installer was in German, and part (but only part) of the account management website.

There must be some hidden switch somewhere, which I have to set to "English, ************!" Where is it?

EDIT: Easy: Switch to Russian, switch back to English, click "Change language settings" button, restart client. Start menu is still broken and can be fixed manually...

By the way: If CCP thinks, localization is so important, why can't I use country-specific characters in the address field when I enter my payment information? Ever heard of unicode? How do Russian or Japenese customers enter their address?
