Octopus Overlords has spread in Dis...

[cIV_khanh93]

As the Lanun the 13th default city name is Dis.

 

[Avahz Darkwood]

Cant touch Dis.. Dun dun da dun da dun da dun... Cant touch Dis...


Sorry couldn't resist...

 

[Luckmann]

As the Lanun the 13th default city name is Dis.

..yes? What's your point?

 

[Lone Wolf]

Dis is the Infernal capital, if I'm not mistaken. Never seen a Lanun Dis.

 

[Valkrionn]

Once the list of names for a civ has been used up, the game moves on to city names for civs not in the game.

 

[civ_king]

ah, that makes sense

 

[Fafnir13]

You only get twelve cities with a Civ name? That seems a tad low to me.

 

[Opera]

It varies. The Lanun get 16 names if you believe the XML while the Grigori, for example, get 26.

 

[Minor Annoyance]

Seems like the Infernals and Mercurian city names should be exempt from this because they wouldn't be in the game right away.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

How about seems like we need more city names for each civ so that this does not happen...
That sounds much better.

 

[cIV_khanh93]

agree with PPQ^ i mean 13 cities (unless i wa counting wrong, but that domestic advisor screen doesnt lie...) isnt that much of a stretch. Just because i was particularly REX-y that game doesnt mean other players dont reach this cap often.

Well...

Now you know how many names are missing and which civs need most names.

Strange since the Infernals will probably found the fewest cities.

 

[PPQ_Purple]

Than let us pull together a comuity effort for those extra names.

 

[TheJopa]

Clan of Embers = 26 ( 0)

Shouldn't it be
Clan of Embers = 26 ( 4)
?

 

[Opera]

Shouldn't it be
Clan of Embers = 26 ( 4)
?

It should, yes. At first, I based my table on them but I then realized that the Infernals had many more city names... I forgot to redo the maths for them I'll edit.

Sounds like an excellent idea. Although, many of the Grigori city names seem... odd to me (We go from Edge and Costa del Sol to some strange asian-sounding multi-syllabic thing). A re-evalutation of some of the city names might be in order.

 

[Emptiness]

Another nice feature, although more complicated than just adding names to a list, would be if a name was chosen at random from the list instead of always going in order. Maybe the randomness could be an option, so that those who like the current method aren't forced to make the change.

If that's possible, it would certainly be a very welcome addition for me. I tend to build very small empires, so I typically only see the first 5-6 city names in action, and they can get a bit repetitive. I have no idea how to do it, though.

All the Grigori names are cities from Final Fantasy VII. Looking at the list, it seems like Kael may have dipped into the original Japanese names for some cities, as Roketto Mura might be Rocket Town.
