I could translate it, but I'm too lazy.

edit: and no, in Brazil we do not speak Spanish, we speak Portuguese!

[Cyclotron]

Well, I'm sure it's infuriating.

according to the altavista translator:
============================ Manifesto
You consider @ amig @ :

In the first place I would like agradecerte the interest shown by the campaign, that has arisen spontaneously by several users of Civilization III fed up with the constant acts of scorn on the part of Iberian Infogrames, between that emphasize:

*

The terrible translation of Civilization III, neglected, with nonappropriate names to units, letters mounted with others (In all the configurations).
*

The nonexistent service of attention to the client.
*

The nonupdate of its Web.
*

The nonupdate of the Web of the game (www.civ3.com/es)
*

The patches more recent than Firaxis (company programmer) offer to the users of the English version have not been translated the Spanish, placing in inferiority. In addition, these patches can only be obtained by ordinary mail, after sending a letter to Infogrames Spain.
*

The nonpublication of Play the World when there are translated versions (as the Italian) has been available anywhere in the world for some weeks.
*

The mutual incompatibility of the Spanish version with versions of other countries, as far as patches talks about at least: patches of other languages cannot be applied to the Spanish version, even though this arranging to resign to the translation with so updating the version of Civilization III (already we will see that it happens when it leaves the multiplayer update Play The World)

Before all these reasons, the users of Civilization 3 we have been united with a motto?Estamos fed up with the discrimination to which puts under Infogrames to us, Why in Spain we do not have the same service that the Germans, French, Americans? if we paid just like they?

If these in favor of this complaint, aqui signs the manifesto '!

Hey, that does suck. I knew there were some delays with IG translating stuff, but that is pretty annoying...

I don't get that. It's funny though.

[Alfonso]

Thank you very much, lateralis.

My English is very bad.

One does not know when it will leave the PTW in Spain.

[lateralis]

[swagled]

Boy they're mad... no wonder Firaxis didn't give the Spanish any banks!

"Be grateful to you", I think.



It is a shame what they are doing with us, we cannot buy the Spanish version because there are no up-to-date patches for us, in fact, last patch available in Spain is v1.21f and not in the net, you have to write a letter to Infogrames Iberia in order to get it. There is no technical service either.

So, many of us are buying Civ III American Version from Amazon because we know it is the only version which has guaranteed patches.

We are really angry with them

Perhaps you could help us with our demands

[ayronis]

There is a "Version in English" button on the top right of the screen for any of you, like me, who do not know how to read spanish.
