Fifield Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hijack: would be great if it involved hijacking but it's really an Escort mission.Interception: baffling name -- I suggest Strategic Defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arielessar Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hijack is referring to the fact that we jack the part away from the associated faction. And interception is because we are intercepting the messages from the associated faction... They seem like reasonable names to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeMonkey Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Hijack: would be great if it involved hijacking but it's really an Escort mission. Defending something that's mobile? And you want to call it Escort? This seems slightly nit-picky, you Hijack the Grineers tram, who cares whether you escort it afterwards, the objective is to Hijack it. And Interception, the objective is to Intercept the information, who cares how we go about doing it. Should we rename surival? Since none of us are really in any danger of dieing, should we just change the name to Genocide? Mass slaughter? Would that make you happier?

jjpdn Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 (edited) What about ASSASSINATION. How about: Execution? While it's not muchbetter, I would rather we have an assassination game mode that fits the name. Edited June 7, 2015 by jjpdn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems slightly nit-picky, you Hijack the Grineers tram, who cares whether you escort it afterwards, the objective is to Hijack it. Your comment is hilarious. You *@##$ about wanting to call it Escort when that's what we do (and never ever get to Hijack it). And you apparently want to call it Mobile Defense.

(PSN)jwernecke Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I guess I failed to see how stealing a large piece of equipment is anything but a hijack....and stealing information before it gets delivered to the enemy is anything but interception.

Your lack of perception is perfectly excusable. Already twice covered the fact we never ever do the hijacking bit (3x now). I'm not entirely sure what point capturing and holding has to do with stealing information. Edited June 7, 2015 by Fifield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not entirely sure what point capturing and holding has to do with stealing information. Just an FYI since you don't seem to know, the Hijacking bit is where you press the button on the console and proceed to run away with the core. And capturing towers to intercept information is the entire premise of the mission. If you disregard the fact that we're intercepting information then you may be right, it would be a silly name.

We're jacking them so that the enemy doesn't receive a message, but the Lotus does instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolly Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Should we rename surival? Since none of us are really in any danger of dieing, should we just change the name to Genocide? Mass slaughter? Would that make you happier? I'd totally play Genocide. Side note, given the sneering, superior tone, (which is pretty funny for, you know, reasons) fairly sure this guy is just trolling at this point.

jjpdn Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Survival should be instead Distraction, cause that's what we're doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolly Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Survival should be instead Distraction, cause that's what we're doing. To be fair, we're also Surviving. Perhaps we should rename every mission Survival. And Killing. One mission type, Survival And Killing, everything else is random. Because that's what we're really doing, right?

Carolly Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 This was completely unnecessary and directly insults OP. Read the forum rules again. As much as I'm usually the one telling people not to make personal attacks, I actually think that one was kind of deserved, all considered. OP's been taking shots at people since the thread started, and there are no actual rules about taking a generic shot at someone (seriously - they cover almost everything else, but "your name is stupid" isn't actually in there.) That aside, I'll note that most people don't appreciate mini-modding either =P If you feel someone's breaking the rules, you should probably just report them to an actual moderator.

Renan.Ruivo Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Almost like we are...intercepting a message. Interesting... Just got to point out that Spock only says "Fascinating" when he discovers something that was unexpected. In that case, "Interesting" would suffice =) That said, i'm pretty sure this thread has already reached its goal for the debate and i'm locking it to prevent unnecessary heated exchanges among fellow Tenno :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
