Installing TS3 in English

Hi everyone, I live in a french speaking country, Ivory Coast (Côte D'Ivoire). I'm used to playing TS2 in English, as TS2 game allows to select the language before installing. But The Sims 3 seems 8) to force our country's language on us. Anyone knows how to bypass this? I've tried to enter US as my country while being offline, but it did not work in the end. :(

I guess I could understand why EA did this. :mrgreen:It's for the Exchange and the marketing: so they would know where the players are from and what they speak... But we should be allowed to choose the language we want, because I speak English too, and I prefer playing in that language, even though I also speak French. 8) Plus my country's flag does not even appear in my creation windows. :?: :( (vertical: orange, white, & green)

Thanks for understanding.

    There is a language selection at the start of installation! On my laptop I have Sims 3 on Spain, my hubby has sims 3 on English and my son on German :-)
    Happy simming!

    Are you refering to the game or the site? I heard people had issues with the site.
