    You forget that it will say <b>Mother Hive</b> in giant letters in the top right of your screen. It was always called Mother hive, and always will be. The game is called Natural Selection, if you cannot adapt, you cannot win. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Speaking of <b>Mother</b> Hive just reminds me of our first round of the NSA Invitational tourney when I told the comm I was in Mother Hive knifing the node or something and Skillzilla said 'WTH mother hive that's ghetto' in spectator mode. I'm sure thief has the demo.

    It'll be nice to hear it finally called "Mother" again.

    A small portion will be glad it's called Mother again...A large portion will miss NoName hive. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I've fixed it on our server to see what response it gets. Which so far is predictably, WTH?

    I remember back in 1.0 it was called Mother, but Its been so long, sense then that I played, when I came back in 1.04 it was called No name/Nameless and that caught on fast.

    I remember it as Mother Hive, so its nice to see its fixed, but No Name had a certian, what the french call it... I don't know what, but it had something!

    Commander, The Stinking Mothers are building a Hive in Mother... <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Agreed, that does confuse me as well.

    je ne sai quoi (or something like that)

    I'll still call it noname tbh, less confusion with MI and it's what I've always known it as
  • Speed_2_DaveSpeed_2_Dave Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8788Members
    you mean whenever I say "we're getting hit at Mother Hive!" everyone else will finally know what I'm talking about? "Mother Interface you mean?" "No, mother hive!" "mother what?" "Noname! Unnamed!"

    /I've got nothing.

    For some people being confused at where the term comes from, I'll take a shot at explaining it.

    In the movie Alien, I think it was, the computer that ran the ship was called Mother. I'm pretty sure this name was in Aliens: Ressurection too. I don't think it was in Aliens, because they weren't on a ship. But Aliens 2 might have, I haven't seen it.

    So, Mother (the hive) would be the computer core, and Mother Interface would be the interface to the computer. They have these things called "wires" that allow you to move electronic signals substantial distances, so it doesn't have to be next to Mother (the hive)

    (BTW, movies are: Alien, Aliens, Aliens 2, Aliens Ressurection)

    Now on to the subject at hand: <b>NONAME!!!</b> I really think Flayra should start a poll as to the name. I have a feeling that noname will win hands down.

    You know, I think you guys are right. I don't think Galen (the nancy creator) will mind if we pay tribute to the legacy of this hive location, but let me ask him.

    Yeah Dub, I've still got the demo. For the people who actually PTed before 1.0 and for the people who actually read the forums around its release, it was confirmed to be called "Mother Hive" many times, and the name stuck with me.

    So you're saying that you can only adapt once?

    Considering that the subspace hive is right ourside mother interface.. this might get confusing.

    "Get to Mother now or we lose it!!"

    5 min later..

    "AHh I ment the hive one! Crap."

    I think it would be fine if Aux Gen was outside Subspace, and Mother Inter. was outside mother hive (just switch the names) however since they do not have the files - I doubt it can happen.

    Alien and Aliens were the only 2 good movies, Aliens 3 and Alien Ressurection, SUCKED DONKEY BALLS!
    And the computer in the 4th move was called "Father"
    The second Movie (Aliens) RULED, one of the best sequals EVER!
    Just like how Natural Selection 2.0 will be one of the best game releases EVER.

    I'm sure you have read Flayra, that the HL 2 engine is opted for Porting games over to it from HL, textures and some code will have to be redon, but I read they took extra attention to make sure it could be done!
    So that Mods don't have to start from Scratch!

    I can just Imagine Natual Selection<b>s</b> (the s copying the style of sequal like in Alien<b>s</b>)

    maybe now instead of saying "mother is under attack" for mother interface maybe you should say "interface is under attack" and then you can say "omg mother is under attack" and then everyone will go "OMG NOT MY MOTHER!!"

    no, but since it was called Mother Hive BEFORE, calling it Mother again would be taking a step back. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Assuming that means you're thinking of changing the name to say Noname Hive, I don't think that's really necessary. People will adapt to Mother Hive just like beta players adapted to Noname. My only complaint is the possible confusion with Mother Interface, but people can always just call it Interface or Mother Int.

    i think you all are seriously underestimating the average player. The average player isnt so stupid as to confuse mother int and monther hive for more than 1 game on nancy. Their would quickly be shortcut names for both of these within hours of release. Their would be no problem because you would all adapt. Any counter arguement to this is only saying that you are a fool who cant adapt to the proper names. Do you really want to admit yourself a fool?
  • the_draftthe_draft Join Date: 2003-06-03 Member: 16977Members
    This isn't about confusing the two places. It's about history. The players of NS have dubbed it "NoName" hive. It's a cool name, and it's even cooler that it came from the community. Regardless of what it's official name becomes, it'll always be NoName to me <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    does it being part of history make it any more correct of an error than it already is? I think not. Being its history that is what it should become, history. Gone poof out of here. Replaced with the original mappers true intended name. However this is up to him and this thread is now useless until flay returns with the mappers wishes. He is the god as far as that map is concerned and he knows what youall want. The question is, does he care to placate your "historic" title and forsake his own or fix the map into what it should have been in the first place.
