Guest LorD Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Hi all. does someone knows if jedi outcast will be translated in other languages?? for exemple in italian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro The Hutt Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 I SURELY HOPE NOT! It's a given fact that whenever anything changes language in terms of sound that the quality is completely slaughtered. (just look at any dubbed game, cartoon or anime, the original is always far supreme) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anto86 Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Ehi lorD!!! are you italian??? i'm!!! in english: as far as the translation, I hope just that it comes translate in Italian, why otherwise for who English does not know, the game would be truly orribile and incomprensibile. Pedro, I am Italian and have RTCW in Italian: I assure to you that the quality between the English version and that Italian is equal! ------------------------------------------- in italiano: per quanto riguarda la traduzione, spero proprio che venga tradotto in italiano, perchè altrimenti per chi non conosce l'inglese, il gioco sarebbe veramente orribile e incomprensibile. Pedro, io sono italiano e ho RTCW in italiano: ti assicuro che la qualità tra la versione inglese e quella italiana è uguale! ..::KTR_Anto::..

Kurgan Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 I thought it was cool the way it was done in Elite Force (options for English and German in both subtitles and audio dubbing). However my German isn't very good, so I can't say how accurate the translations were (me: remembers many bad english translated video games of the past). ; p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P129 Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Translated games shouldn't exist. It makes people of the exposed countries to stick to much to their native tounge and ignore the widespread english. In times where EU and FN and whatever affects every country, people need to be able to communicate in an orderly fashion. Translators can never, ever give the full meaning of what the first person said, if it's the tone of the voice or the expretions of the face it becomes much easier to missinterprate people. Back to the topic I have to say that we in Sweden are quite lucky. The only really big game that has been translated was Black & White and you could easily get the english version free of charge if you just sent in your swedish cd to EA.

"Don't get excited" Alright I'll correct myself, look at MOST of the dubbed things out there. There are always a few exceptions where the dub is good. But better than the original, that I've never seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the German translation of Elite Force was... well, it was ok, but not good. Remember Tuvok saying "direct hit - phaser had no dicernable effect" (or so) in the intro? Well, in German it was something like "direct hit - phaser had no dicernable hit" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raze Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Translated games shouldn't exist.

Keiran Halcyon Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Well, sometimes the translations are bad, very bad but in my country(Spain) the SW games(the latset ones) usually have good translations. JK and MOTS are better in English (i got them), and i dont mind having a game in english because i understand it, and i learn pronunciaton with them. But we have to think in the people that doesnt' understand english.... Well, furthermore, in my country the Phantom Menace was far better than the english version (i heard it as was awful in comparison) because ALL VOICES WHERE FORM THE TRANSLATORS IN THE MOVIE!!!! and Indiana Jones and the infernal machine too, and racer (i know Anakin, watto and jar jar had their voices).... and maybe Mark Hamill doesn't speak Luke's lines in JO but, maybe in Spain the guy who translated him will do!

I don't know Italian, but the Spanish version of RtCW was FUBAR. It would be nice if it were like MoH:AA, where the users could hack their own translations. This is almost always better than when the software developers try to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Nizar Posted March 18, 2002 Share Posted March 18, 2002 I hope JK2 will stay in English, such as Dark Forces, JK and Mots. I'm from Germany and I like my Lunguage, but in english Star War sounds better, I know this I have all thE SW games some of them in english the other on German, also the SW movies in English are better. look what did they made for the synchronisation of the True Love teaster and the Epi2 Trailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
