Corporation Logos and the Codex

[Nik_van_Rijn]

Recently, I've got around to checking out the wiki entries on various TiTS' Organizations and found out that most of them (most of the corporations at least) have incredible logos, courtesy of Jacques00.

Now my main question is - why did the devs choose not to put a re-sized versions of them into the appropriate in-game Codex entries?

And since I know how this forum works: anyone else can talk about their favorite in-game organization without a logo and swap some random tangentially related ideas.

You know us so well!

Anyway, I'm guessing they haven't been added to the codex because the devs forgot to, or might not even remember the logos exist. You'd have to wait till one pops by to give us the lowdown, but that's my take on why they aren't in yet.

I just think that they are focusing to get stuff implemented in the game, all the story and functionality. They will probably polish the game and add all those bits and bobs after they're done with the main thing...

This sounds like a groovy idea. I'll throw it at Jacques before I pass out for the night.

 

[Xeivous]

Gotta say that I do dig the ltitle things like that. It helps sell the game as a world just a tiny bit more.

Unrelated question: Does anyone have a high-res picture of the Steele Tech logo with transparent background? I wanted to integrate it into the signature picture I'm working on, but I can't just cut it out from the loading sequence since the background leaves ugly borders along the logo.

All the logo assets are on github.

Ah, good catch. Thanks.

Okay, added logo art in the pull request (#1006).

There are some missing codex entries and entries that need more/better info though. Not sure if there is a lore-building team on that--if not, there should be! I should also probably make more logos and emblems at some point... eventually...

Jacques over here with the God-tier ideas.

Yeah, he is literally Fenforum's very own Sakamoto.

Does he reach the same tier of Sasuga?

Who dat?

Who dat?

This explains it rather well.

This explains it rather well.

Then the answer is obvious, since 'Sakamoto tier' is an order of magnitude cooler than that.

Back to the topic:
Aside from the corporations, plenty of potential awesome and imaginative things can be done with the imagery of TiTS' various religions and cults. A formal sigil of the Stormguard must look like the most metal thing this ever. The possible visual representation of oddball concepts like Zyi (aka the Giant Caterpillar Moiras in Spess) or Infinite Aspect can be fun to speculate about. Even the Church of One can probably have more to its name than a plain circle.

 

[Noob Salad]

That doesn't explain anything. Sasuga is just a grammar point with a closest English equivalent of "Of course it'd be [that/him/etc]!"

 

[Couch]

"As expected of [name]" is a somewhat more naturalistic translation, though still a bit stiff. "Dammit, [name]" can also work depending on context.

 

[CloudStriker]

I think the best translation would be "I'd expect no less of [name]".
