wgaf 251 Posted January 10, 2014 For some reason I always figured stary and novy sobor meant "south" and "north" sobor. But "new" makes more sense. Novaya gazeta, for example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ubernaut 297 Posted January 10, 2014 Interesting. Most of them are just geographical features instead of proper town names. How very ArmA-like. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zedicologist 162 Posted January 10, 2014 Cant wait for the new towns and cities that are going to be in the north. Especially the one in the NE close to Guba qith all the rock cliffs. That area looks huge from what ive seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nienko 41 Posted January 10, 2014 Its always funny watching youtube when people say I am in Stary, or Novy, when actualy the main word should be Sobor and Stary And Novy, is just old and new. But actualy even russians call it the same now, just to avoid confusion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lowbi 11 Posted January 11, 2014 i wonder why cherno is "black city"? what does that mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
subliminal_city 27 Posted January 11, 2014 i wonder why cherno is "black city"? what does that mean? Perhaps it was built by Chernobog (the black God).Or it's probably because there's already a city by that same name in Russia.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ChernogorskWhich seems to be or at least was a coal mining town, so that could be why it's named that... at least the real town.

Lowbi 11 Posted January 18, 2014 if its a coal mining town, we should have some old abandoned mineshaft to mess around in, imo. flashlight required since no moonlight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frosti 2165 Posted January 18, 2014 I suspect: Погоревка Pogorevka - a town that was burned down in pastКозловка Kozlovka named for Duke Kozlov - also Kozlov - GoatЛопатино Lopatino might be for Pyotr Lopatin - Lopata - ShovelРогово Rogovo - horno -vo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lowbi 11 Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Лопатино Lopatino might be for Pyotr Lopatin - Lopata - Shovel obviously theres buried treasure in Lopatino that will take a shovel to uncover! imo there should be some kinda hidden treasure somewhere on the map with maybe some kind of torn pieces of the treasure map scattered all over chernarus?

Just what It sounds like to me (I'm not russian). Edited January 19, 2014 by Arty 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soulfirez 901 Posted January 19, 2014 I just want to know why the signs only have the russian( or the language used) and the maps only have the english names for cities towns etc lol . I know the map pretty well ( not perfect but well enough lol been on chernarus a few years now) but as it is if you dont know the area it kinda makes things hard and realisticly wouldnt help anyone in real lifeeg your a tourist or a russian it wont tell you were you are have to figure it out ....
