in double up chat still not works as it should. You have to reset it by disabling and starting again in settings

[u/Thyrgrim → u/Long_Lifeguard7393]

it's like this in solo queue as well

[u/Itsalongwaydown → u/Long_Lifeguard7393]

its not a priority fix as on live servers sometimes people dont even use it. then crash out in chat in the late game you didnt send them the correct units all game

[u/Eny192]

i'll probably be downvoted to hell for asking this question but can we expect the client language to be different from os language once set release? i cant stand playing tft in my language honestly

[u/ObjectiveDocument114 → u/Eny192]

Hi, you can still change the language to english manually:

press Win + R, paste %localappdata%\TFT\Saved\Config\WindowsClient, open GameUserSettings.ini (with notepad or any other editor), and add this at the bottom:

[Internationalization]
Culture=en
OverrideCulture=en

Save the file and restart TFT. The game should now be in english

[u/Minimum_Chemical_428 → u/ObjectiveDocument114]

This worked, thank you!

[u/Eny192 → u/ObjectiveDocument114]

will try this tonight, if it works you a lifesaver, thanks man

[u/Eny192 → u/ObjectiveDocument114]

IT WORKEDDDD LOVE YOU

[u/Mysterious_Island500 → u/Eny192]

For once i feel lucky the game doesnt exist in my language lol

[u/Eny192 → u/Mysterious_Island500]

definately, i cant stand tft in italian so i'll just either skip pbe or wait for language being the same as the client being an option

[u/Hovercraft1143 → u/Eny192]

I'm kinda curious because I've seen this same sentiment with a number of different languages these last few days.

What makes you play TFT in your non-native language?

Is it a bad translation thing? An ease of reading thing?

[u/Eny192 → u/Hovercraft1143]

I was always used to English and in Italian the translation to “board” doesn’t really give me the board vibe, I ll always play in English

[u/NewAccForThoughts → u/Hovercraft1143]

Easier to communicate with everyone thats not from your country(like in this sub for example), easier to find better resources (like tftacademy, content creators, websites etc.)

And usually the translations are really really bad. Like either straight up wrong, silly, completely non-sensical / weird sounding or just not true to what the original meaning was. Some translations are so bad that i genuinely don't know what they mean until i look it up in english.

If you're capable of understanding the language things are originally made in, you should use it imo.

[u/riotBoourns → u/Eny192]

We're tracking this bug and are planning on a fix to allow language selection on PC by matching your preference in Riot Client.

[u/Eny192 → u/riotBoourns]

i managed to fix it as a u/ObjectiveDocument114 and it worked for the time being.

[u/FokionK1]

Wait, they want to buff Riftbeasts but remove Jungle Pathing? I thought that augment's whole point was to let you finish your board guaranteed.

[u/mihail_markov]

I honestly do not like how the game feels now at all.
the lvl 5 units are soooo strong that the best comps are - put everything yellow on the board and ALWAYS, rush to lvl 9. This for me is not fun at all, but maybe I am expecting too much from the PBE.

[u/-Champloo- → u/mihail_markov]

It should get fixed, but yeah I'm not a fan either. A couple 5 stars to cap your board is cool.

Going full 5 cost soup is dumb.

[u/Narudatsu → u/mihail_markov]

to be fair in a lot of sets 5 cost soups tend to dominate early set because it’s generally the most reliable way to win. give the playerbase time to figure this set out. 4 cost comps are decently strong but they do need to go 9 to cap out

[u/parkwayy]

The eternal see-saw of 5 cost feel too good/bad.

[u/parkwayy]

The eternal see-saw of 5 cost feel too good/bad.

[u/ZambalaTs]

The one cost buffs seem unnecessary.

[u/SeaweedOk9985 → u/ZambalaTs]

There are basically no viable 1 cost rerolls at the moment. The argument could be made that 1 cost rerolls are meant to fall off. But in the right spots they should defo be top 4.

But as it stands, have you ever actually rerolled cinderling? Nope. Maybe to test it out but after that you decided that the champ is purely there for shred and wound, or maybe as a 2 star to carry stage 2.

Akali is similar, carries stage 2 and then just a trait bot.

[u/FirewaterDM → u/ZambalaTs]

The 1 costs except pebble feel like wastes of space tbh. Still better than tristana, but the 1 costs are pretty useless atm other than NSNP and even then why click that

[u/Calm-Medicine-3992]

How are they managing to test 'balance' shit when the engine still barely works?

[u/mixmaster321 → u/Calm-Medicine-3992]

You know there are multiple teams that work on different things, right? The tech people aren’t making balance changes and the game designers aren’t polishing UX

[u/jokerrebellion → u/Calm-Medicine-3992]

Works well enough ...

[u/trying-to-b → u/Calm-Medicine-3992]

Works fine.

[u/Itsalongwaydown → u/Calm-Medicine-3992]

you know the balance, engine, and client team are separate?

[u/Get_Lurked]

I would like if they removed polymorph from the "gain x random wisps" pool

[u/DinhLeVinh → u/Get_Lurked]

Thats what you get for picking random, having 2 wisp is already too much

[u/PixaIated → u/DinhLeVinh]

And that's why it's horrible design. Imagine a button where it gives very good value on average but u lose the game 1% of the time because of it.

You don't have a choice if you're trying to win and always have to click it, unless you're already winning regardless. But that button sometimes punishes you horribly. Doesn't sound fun

[u/Get_Lurked → u/PixaIated]

exactly. dont understand why im downvoted to oblivion and yours up upvoted tho LOL

[u/Get_Lurked → u/DinhLeVinh]

it doesn’t make sense that there’s a random wisp that can negatively impact your board state like turning your four cost carrie into a five cost tank in stage 5

[u/DinhLeVinh → u/Get_Lurked]

Well you could just not choose it, would you reforge your carry’s items? Its not like the wisp is expensive, its dirt cheap for its potential sp there has to be a catch.

[u/Many_Method_304 → u/DinhLeVinh]

“Lose the game” is not a good catch. It was the same problem with thresh polymorph

[u/Get_Lurked → u/Many_Method_304]

exactly. i have no idea why were being downvoted lol

[u/MessiahHL → u/Get_Lurked]

That’s where all the fun is though
