    Woah. I didnt notice that at all. I just thought it was suppose to be something japanese.

    There is a Hamasaki in the map ( one of the hives), so it's very likely.

    Yes. "Someone" did.
    But still, this "someone" isn't a big fan of her.

    The names of the locations in ns_ayumi is a bit disturbing for me <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo--> . It ruines the game atmosphere when you know that Hamasaki Ayumi is a singer, Ghibli is a movie studio, and Hayao is a movie director all famous in Japan.

    Agreed. Also for my own feeling on Japanese media (Hint: I hate it all. Singing: high pitched, annoying, can't understand it; Anime, most is trash; Movies, annoying), I really can't stand the locations in this map.
  • FinaFina Join Date: 2002-11-01 Member: 3267Members
    Yeah, SuperTeflon, I agree.

    I could tell by the name of the map to expect it though, lol.
  • VerthandiVerthandi Join Date: 2002-12-12 Member: 10687Members, NS1 Playtester
    Yea, for similar reasons above, I dislike the map. The names just don't fit at all.
  • itsmemoitsmemo Join Date: 2003-07-17 Member: 18232Members, Constellation
    Actually I like the names and the japaneseness, its a change from all those

    "RY-567 VENTILATIONS SYSTEM" type of names
  • SuperTeflonSuperTeflon Join Date: 2003-12-31 Member: 24893Banned
    Well, I like the MAP, but this idea of some asian chick singing gibberish that, for all I know, translates to 'kill every american I hate them all', has a map idolizing her...

    Actually the little anime animals are from miyuzaki's my neighbor totoro. U know the map maker should add ayumi' hamasaki's song evolution in that secret room. THe name fits and everything.

    At least the name is obligatoryily sci fi sounding o_O

    No it's not, electrogreatronic is sci fi sounding.

    The name reminds me of the 'japanophiles' that hang out at my home forum. You know, the "^_^ omg kawaii jpop =o.^= anime katana ~.~ baka godzilla!" people.

    Don't get me wrong, the map looks simply awesome, but the names are just so unfitting.

    Wait, wait. You're getting upset at some map location names?

    Now I've seen everything.

    Considering the backstory of NS, why WOULDN'T there be english/european/asian stations? A lot of short term (like, 22nd century short term, not the year 300005 short term) future "histories" have various colonies established by major social and economical powers.

    I wouldn't be suprised if Japan was the first to have a permanent base outside of the earth/moon system.

    Either way, if you don't like the names because you can't pronounce them or whatever.. okay.. But most japanese is phoentical (hukd on foniks wurked 4 u), so... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
