Overall good names, although I can only comment on the sound of them as well since I'm not Finnish or Japanese.
If you ever desire to use Swedish gods and monster names, I might be able to help 
One question: Since you seem to have separate names for all different tiers, how will this mesh with the tiericide / PowerCore idea (if that becomes a thing?) Will the name then move to the power core? |

I kind of miss "Oni". Would be perfect for a Caldari Scout

I think I get it.
Each frame type, role and tier will have a prefitted named "Loadout", like the Defender Special Issue suites. That way a new player will have a "rolemodel" for each tier which they can draw inspiration from. Basically it's a little like the "Mastery" discussion we had a while back, but with real suite Loadouts which you can earn or buy (I guess).
We already have a few (or all?) of them already in-game, but they are just called "Caldari ADV Assault". CCP Rattati just wants to name them some cooler names.
Now, the question I have:
I thought the names of the loadouts were not visible in-game, and the only way to "name" a suite was to create a new "item" in the database (I.e name the unique suite the Loadout name). After all, what we call our own loadouts is not shown, and in the kill feed you only see the suite name.
If this is the case, won't these 200 "unique" loadouts negate a lot of the power core idea?
(Unless you have already taken steps to counter this of course )

"Oh hey, Awesome, I just got Minmatar assault 3, now I can use the new higher tier minmatar assault frame."
*goes to purchase minmatar load out*
"WTF? I need to get like 9 more skills ranked up to use this frame? This sucks! I thought I was ready for adv suits."
With today's system I would agree.
However, CCP Rattati is cooking up something new regarding progression and NPE, so I think it will be clear in the end. At least I would wait with judgement until we know more. |
