Hello everyone, im Kronos and i have played all of the rockman exe in japanese and there english translations , other wise known as Megaman Battle Network.
Ive noticed that when they come out in English, that several times the translations are well.... "not as good".
Here is a example of some stuff that ive found differences in:
JP games usually have animations where the English do not
English games usually abbriviate words constantly.
Do you think that they will ruin EXE5? or do you think it will suceed?
Post your thoughts.

I don't know Japanese, but on the last BN it had a crazy amount of typos, and all have had the abreviations so they will do that. Unless Capcom's translaters get off their lazy butts I see a repeat of 4.

Yeah i know what you mean, and from reading translations, it will most likely end up like BN 4, a bunch of abbriviated words such as:
Megaman , Mgaman
ObservingRoom, ObservRm
..., ... [one text space taken not 3]
Mr. Program, Mr. Prog
*Notice that in BN 1,2,3 the programs text wasnt all in caps? Maybe it takes more space for lowercase....
*Notice that they get animations that we dont [EXE 4 *or was it 3?* Navi Customizer Screen] [EXE3 "log-on" screen]
Also, didnt in the first one, Lan said this when "loging on" to something
Jack in!
Megman.exe Transmit!
They took out the Transmit! in 4.
If youd like to point out more, go ahead, it would be interesting to note how screwed up our games become lol.

Well,lots of people really don't care for the translation errors. Then again the errors aren't noticed by many.
