UNDERGROUND CONQUERER=lurker Venomous Insect=baneling Big Space Ship=carrier "BIGTHING"=Collosus it's cool that there is a korean version of starcraft but instead of making up shitty names blizzard should just sound out the english names using korean (like katakana in Japanese). so commentators get to say "stooooormu!" instead of "scary lightning"... well some things are good to translate and some are not. you don't want to translate everything...but some stuff it's ok to translate. like a character name is probably a bad idea to translate that...but a unit name...that's a little different. it might depend on what unit it was. anyway, "working insect" is what a drone is..so there's nothing wrong with that translation... baneling, it's just a retarded name, imo, and venomous insect, that's well...is the explosion poisonous? looks like a kindof explosive acid or something to me... i don't get how it can be a VENOMOUS insect...venom is poison that comes through the teeth... i think acidic insect or something like that would be better...right? or maybe viral exploders or something...somthing that fits the name... carrier is an alright name and i suppose big spaceship is ok...but they're totally different names! i don't like that. there's nothing wrong with the collosus name as far as i can tell... lurker and underground conquerer do seem like different names...but i think it's probably ok in this instance...but wouldn't it be a better name for the infestor...since it can move around while burrowed? or can lurkers do this too? | ||

Korean netizen comments seem pretty positive, I'm really shocked by their response. That's a really good thing I guess. People shouldn't worry too much about Z being weak on the current build... Balance comes and goes, I would be shitting my pants only if people expressed anger towards the core game mechanics, and that's not the case. Balance is really something easy to adjust by patching. | ||

For example polish version of WC3 was absolutely brilliant in terms of translation (and I friggin hate localized game content), they even changed the unit jokes to fit our reality better. Polish words are about 40% longer(I remember that from info about translating 8Mile), sentence structure is different... and to communicate with the rest of the world you need to know English names >.< Even with the best translation, there will be no as strong, thrilling emotions, feelings contained even in the simple "yessir". I like how Polish version of W40K II was done: audio lines of the characters weren't touched and Polish subtitles were simply added... it only misses repeat button  POn July 25 2009 03:32 dcttr66 wrote: well some things are good to translate and some are not. you don't want to translate everything...but some stuff it's ok to translate. like a character name is probably a bad idea to translate that...but a unit name...that's a little different. it might depend on what unit it was. anyway, "working insect" is what a drone is..so there's nothing wrong with that translation... baneling, it's just a retarded name, imo, and venomous insect, that's well...is the explosion poisonous? looks like a kindof explosive acid or something to me... i don't get how it can be a VENOMOUS insect...venom is poison that comes through the teeth... i think acidic insect or something like that would be better...right? or maybe VIRAL EXPLODERS or something...somthing that fits the name... carrier is an alright name and i suppose big spaceship is ok...but they're totally different names! i don't like that. there's nothing wrong with the collosus name as far as i can tell... lurker and underground conquerer do seem like different names...but i think it's probably ok in this instance...but wouldn't it be a better name for the infestor...since it can move around while burrowed? or can lurkers do this too?
