3 months of events were announced... in Japanese

I logged in to the game to a "tap here to see our next 3 months of events", and it proceeded to load the announcement... in Japanese.

As I'm on these forums, I of course just came here to read the English version, but that wrong language thing probably went out to quite a few people...

    I come across this when i use foreign VPNs.

    I've never had a reason to use a VPN on a phone, so it can't be that, but yeah, as the update announcement is a webpage and on an external site (Fev Games) at that, I could certainly understand that site serving pages based on what country it thinks you're accessing from. I do run Firefox with its tracking protection on as my default browser, but that should only be blocking tracking cookies and the like, not a "what country is this guy in" check.

    I'm so sorry you experienced this

    I'm not sure why you feel the sarcasm is necessary here. I'm reporting that a glitch occurred. The overwhelming majority of Ingress players don't read these forums, and don't follow the game on any form of social media, so they have no idea what was supposed to be in that post, and are now completely in the dark on the upcoming events. Reporting this, so they can re-send to those people helps the community by increasing participation in said events, and player activity period since they can see Niantic is actually doing stuff in this game again. You're not going to believe this, but some people report things that have zero impact on them but do affect others, because they actually want to help others.
