Thanks for the info Rhazul, but i guess i will stick to the english ones. From my experience the international part of one games forum is a better place when you want information. Reason why i also play my games in original language, easier when one speaks about the same term. You may love, but german translations confuse me at times :D Will take a look though every now and then. Never say never...
 
Its not about promoting the german Forum, its about promoting a Thread inside of the german Forum. And just for the reason youve posted, i thought a post here would reach People who may be interested into.

The german localization is horrible and bugged. CGs only showed up once, traffic reports and bounty reports don't show up at all. Basically the german translation is useless. Not to mention the usual "google translate" errors.

To the OP: Really? Yet an other pirate group? How boring. And don't mention the Lave area as your playground, some other pirate groups might get interested in you and they don't fly suicide Cobras.
 
Ah, i see - well, good luck then with your project, hope it will be a success :)
Thank you sir!

Is it boring in an global aspect when some fellow People play the game for other things then profit, which may also support interactions with other playergroups? Well, i dont think so. But thats my personal opinion. About "the Code": Maybe they do like our "criminal Attitude of freedom" and support us? Why should 2 Peergroups with basicly the same Attitude fight each other? Arent Peergroups like the Code, or the Yan Musu Rats what the game desperately Needs on the long run? Really, i cant understand you here... Greetings, Rhazul Redman

It's boring because everybody and their dog and kitchen sink plays pirates. I actually start to like the Empire Groups with their sun bathing thing going on.

Maybe because ever time I read some pirate writing about pirating in the Lave area that pirate gets a friendly suggestions from Code supporters to pirate somewhere else? Don't know how Code handles this and I don't care, but it might be a good idea to check that out with them.

And no, the game doesn't need so many pirate groups and I hope that 1.3 actually makes it more interesting to play something else than a pirate.

I see - yea, as expected i guess. Sometimes i really wonder who is actually working in translation agencies. Had my fair share of horrible translations in the past as well. Started back in Everquest 2 i switched to all english. Someone thought it would be cool to translate Coldwind Mantaray into the german version of Coldwind Sorcerer. Was searching for hours as i obviously searched on the land for a sorcerer, and only found out by accident (falling from a cliff into the water) that it was obviously not the sorcerer they meant. Was corrected later, still - things like that makes you head bang to the wall and ask you "why?!". Also most translations totally fail to fetch the punchline out of a comical situation.

Good one! Now im sure - youre trolling..

No, trolling would be different. I'm not good at trolling, but even I know how to troll better than just writing something is boring. That's not a troll posting. And if it was, what it wasn't, it would be a very bad and boring one.

I just think playing pirates is boring as almost everybody on this forum claims to be a pirate. I think there should be other interesting things to do beside interdicting weak ships. I'm not saying that you shouldn't play a pirate. I'm not saying that pirating (like the way your script works) is a bad thing.

I think it's cool that you spend so much time into your piracy RP and to help your members with such a detailed script.

I only think that if everybody (at least that's my impression) does the same thing that thing becomes boring. Nothing really controversial about that.

So have fun and good luck! It wasn't my intention to spoil your fun.
 
Hello Rhazul. Thank you for interdicting me in Lave on Monday evening. It was interesting.

You kept shooting at me, but I didn't know what you wanted. I kept sending messages "Hello, what do you want?", "Why are you shooting?", "Is there anybody there?", "Rhazul, please talk to me!". This continued for nearly 3 minutes.

No problem, your Cobra wasn't fast enough to catch my Asp, and you did no damage. But pirates should send a demand and threat message so the trader knows what they want.

The simplest method is to copy a text message into the Windows clipboard (CTRL-C), ready for use. Then use CTRL-V to paste it into the ED Chat panel when you need it.

Many people use additional software to store a number of different text macros. Voice Attack (voiceattack.com) can be used for this purpose, and AutoHotkey (ahkscript.org) is popular. I'm in favour of piracy, but if you start shooting without sending messages, people will think that you're just trying to kill them.
 
Hello Kryfield! I guess the world is a small one! Had some friends here, and a few huge Bottle of German Jägermeister. I dont even know anymore what we did that evening, or why my face was painted with Lipgloss the next morning...

Excuse this accident, whoever was responsible for this. =/
 
It may be fun to use a (mostly) German demand message, but one that can be easily understood by English people. For example

"Achtung Halt! I bin ein Pirat! Stoppen Sie die Motoren!"

I see that the German verb "to seize" is "greifen". It would be better not to use that word. People may misunderstand.
 
I use this one:
This is a robbery! The „Yan Musu Rats“ like to get 10 Tons of your Cargo. No one will get harmed if you cooperate. Im flying a Cobra, you cant escape. There is no second chance if you try to flee. You got 10 seconds to cooperate. Youve been warned!

i really should translate it, just for the confusion it may do... =)
.
/edit:
Dies ist ein Überfall. Die "Yan Musu Rats" wollen 10 Tonnen Deiner Fracht. Niemand wird verletzt wenn Du kooperierst. Ich fliege eine Cobra, Du kannst nicht entkommen. Es gibt keine zweite Chance wenn Du versuchst zu flüchten. Du wurdest gewarnt!
