How is Nexuiz pronounced?

Postby THE PYTHON » Tue Jul 31, 2007 3:31 am

Stupid question? My father and friend also know of the game and we're all not quite sure. I say "Nex - long u - iz( like is)" and my friend says "Nex - uz( like us)". We both say "Nex" similiar to "next".

I don't think its so much the "Nex" part as it is the "xuiz" part. I hope the way I described them weren't too confusing.

Listen to the announcer when the game starts =)

I just started the game and I didn't hear anybody, and I went into a match in campaign I didn't hear the announcer. The only time I've heard him speak is when he tells me "TRIPLE FRAG", "FIVE FRAG COMBO", and "RAGE". At least of what I recall of.

Hmm there should be a voice sayng "Welcome to Nexuiz" when the game is started.

the sound is stoed inside nexuiz/data/data*.pk3 as sound/announcer/male/welcome.ogg

Its just a zip file trying to hide ;) (rename to .zip and open, change it back to .pk3 when done)

Just open them with something that opens zip files.

Anyway, instead of making you jump through hoops, I'll just tell you... it's pronounced as if it were "Nexius". Apparently it was supposed to be "Nexiuz" but someone had a minor dyslectic spasm when they declared the name. I was calling it "Nexwiz" before I finally heard the announcer. :lol: :P

Thanks! :D . The opening of the .pk3's helped a lot too.

I would never think of that Xeno. Is it just an English thing, or did someone really have minor dyslectic spasm?

(By the way, while I'm typing this, I think I may have double posted. I know double posting is sometimes frowned upon, but would this be fine on its own or should it edited into my post above?)

I've heard that it really was a mistake.

Oh man, within your first 10 posts... you're in DEEP shit now. I'd delete my account before anyone found out.
