You can define a CfgTaskDescriptions part in description.ext, such as:
class CfgTaskDescriptions
{
	class myTask
	{
		title = $STR_MyTaskTitle;
		description = $STR_MyTaskDescription;
	};
};

This should allow tasks to be localised for every player in MP if created locally. You can use "myTask" as details parameter.
