Why Frontier Ignore Polish players?

Dear Frontier, I would like to ask you why you ignore Polish players and completely do not support Polish language in your games. Jurassic World Evolution is another game where you missed Polish community which is bigger and bigger every month. It's hard not to mention Elite Dangerous where you promised to add Polish language a long time ago.I do not believe that support and translation for the Polish language is so expensive, so I ask Frontier to add polish language in games as Jurassic World Evolution and Elite Dangerous.

First of all FDEV promised us their support in our language "Since the launch of Beta 1.0, people from 98 countries around the world have flown, traded and fought together in the Elite: Dangerous Milky Way galaxy. Localisation has started; we will be initially releasing the following languages:German, French, Russian, Polish, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Mexican Spanish, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian and Simplified Chinese."
Newsletter #34 . Second of all Polish language its not small. Soo big devs like Blizzard, Ubisoft, EA and many others already supported Polish language in their games so I`m sure that its worth it.

I hope that you'll get Polish and Italian support and as many languages as possible. The more players, the better. But don't you think it's a little unfair to compare Frontier who both fund, develop and publish this game, with EA, Ubisoft and Blizzard? There are literally NOTHING compared to those companies and I'm pretty sure they have to make compromises and difficult choices on where their money should be spent on. If the game does well I'm sure it'll be localized into other languages but you can't expect that for launch.

I absolutely agree with you when we talk about sensible and economical spending of money, but please take a look at the Income rapport report from last year. http://www.frontier.co.uk/annual-report They are on 550% + !!!. It`s fantastic result so I could expect to spend some money for a promises what they did. I repeat that I do not believe that translating is so expensive.

Yeah, they are successful and made some money. Good for them. I don't know how expensive it is to localize a game in a specific language, but I do know that game development is very expensive and while the numbers they're making look good, they're incredibly small for a company that also publishes their own games. Compare that to EA and you can add 3 zeros to those numbers. That's all I meant.

Localisation in any language is an equation in cost vs benefit.
Frontier need to work out how much it will take to realise a specific language version (cost to code, employment of staff, deferral of launch date, risk of mistranslation, etc) versus the benefit that it will give (community goodwill, increased sales, etc).
Certain languages will not stack up in time for launch.

It appears, from the outside, that Polish and Italian unfortunately have been unable to get inclusion at launch.

I hope that this is resolved shortly after launch but please don’t be too down this side of playing the game.

You seem to be good with English so just play the game in English till they translate it, if they ever do.

Maybe you and some other polish players can help other Polish players who don't speak English at all. Like some kind of amateur translation in a text document or something.

It's a big shame that such a large and decent developer like Frontier doesn't support the Polish location (in 2018!). The same situation as with Planet Coaster. Please, add Polish language support and you will gain respect and make Polish players happy. Don't treat us like rubbish.

Get in line!

Lithuania, Luxembourg, Holland, Belgium and Monaco have all also been ignored , so it's only fair that you wait your turn!

Maybe it would be easier to learn basic english (which all of you already seem to know) instead of Frontier having to add every single language in the world.
