6 months later... and I still feel exactly the same way about this issue as I did back then. Bumping because I believe this suggestion is still relevant. Has there been any new lines added to the game commentary at all since February?

Your player reaches up to grab the defensive rebound, but the RNG hates you tonight since despite double digits in rebounding and handling, he'll fumble it out of bounds for the fifth time this half.

Can your German GMs throw a thread up in the GM forum explaining to USA GMs how and what to do to improve our commentary...

at this point our commentary is so old and stale I might just watch games in German.


hehe..its by far the easiest thing that we could change..every la (gm) could change it at any time by logging in..why the las from one of the biggest communities in bb didnt do it? i have no clue...

cheers

Because all your german GMs are doing is changing translations of the ENGLISH from the ORIGINAL game, IE USAs commentary. You are not adding anything new, just messing with wording...

IF USA changed its wording, then every nation in the world suddenly gets a message that they have to retranslate, and it woudl not be an LA to do it...not sure if even GMs have access...I think it would have to be a BB to change the original ENglish tag.


Or just create a new localization for English-USA with all the text tagged with the current version, and get rid of any hardcoded default texts. Which is of course no small effort, and whether it's worth said effort is another story, but it's far better than just fixing the hardcoded default English texts other than addressing a typo.
