Hi,
So I’ve noticed the word “favourite”(s) is spelt “favorite”(s) in every single instance it appears in Battle net, when you are using the English (UK) language option. I can count at least five different spots it appears. That then made me look for more instances of US English, and sure enough, there are more. In the app settings, “minimise”(d) is spelt “minimize”(d) every time it appears.
I genuinely can’t see any evidence that that English (UK) actually changes anything from English (US). I wouldn’t really care if US English was the only option, it just seems weird that we’re given a choice that doesn’t seem to do anything? I’m Australian (hence being on the US forum), so I always pick the UK language option if offered, since it’s more or less the same as Aus English.
Anyway, just thought I’d point this out. Thanks!
EDIT:
Given this is still a thing, and I’ve currently got nothing better to do, here is specifically where all of the misspelt words I’ve come across are, to make it as easy as possible to fix this:
- The text next to your favourite games says “Favorites”. The title above the list of favourite friends on the right-hand side also says “Favorites”, and the plus button also says it. In Settings > Notifications, favourites is always misspelt in the dropdowns. It’s also present on the tab in the Games menu.
- In settings > App, the drop-down “On Game Launch” has “minimize” instead of “minimise” in two of the options. The drop-down "When Clicking X (Close Window) also misspells “minimise” in one of the options. Lastly the tick box “Launch Battle.net minimized to the system tray”.
- In Groups, the welcome message says has “customize” instead of “customise”, and “organize” instead of “organise”.
There’s probably more, but given nobody will likely see this anyway, I can’t really be bothered to scour the entire app lol. As I said in my original post, I wouldn’t really have cared if no English (UK) option was provided, but it’s so weird that it is provided, and does nothing.
