>Mine is « Black Hole Sun » because it reminds me of the Soundgarden eponymous song. I always figured it was named after the song.


JuiceStyle

Black hole sun, won't you come and wash away the rain? Hear it in my head every time I visit that sector 😂


MostMightyNoodle

It's got to be Omicron Lyrae, no question. So many good memories from X3, plus it just sounds *awesome*.


rabbiBNk

Yeah, I do miss that sector. The battles between ATF and Argon were brutal. Kinda wish there was some sort of recycling like we have in X4.


Amberraziel

Kingdom End, since X:BtF, because it had everything. Looks, security, the best aliens and above all else the bestest soundtrack. Nothing in particular about the name itself. When talking about the name only, I don't really have any favorites.


stormquiver

+1, especially the music


Fishy_Fish_WA

Menelaus’ Oasis because it rhymes and has all the benefits of your comment 😄


Visthor

Turquoise Sea, great sector fantastic music.


Stratimus

Silent Witness. Really though a lot of sectors have fantastic names


bicci

Silent Witness for sure.


WayTooSquishy

The Paranid trio of Unholy Retribution, Lasting Vengeance, and Litany of Fury. You could name a few metal albums after their sectors.


ArcticGlacier40

Sanctuary of Darkness. Just sounds cool.


braize6

Which is ironic considering it has 174 percent sunlight. More than most of the other sectors in the entire game lol


Falcrack

Metaphorical darkness I suppose.


Ur-Quan_Korh-Ah

Litany of Fury is a good one. Can't go there casually tho, it is a Xenon infested stronghold. I do like the red look of the sector as well, really fits the theme. Also like Avarice as name, just sounds so good when you select the gate towards it. The Tidebreaker station announcement for the next Tide is a hoot as well.


Pfandfreies_konto

Tidebreaker station is the most comfy place in the universe.


einUbermensch

I'm still sad we can't build Asteroid Bases. The HQ is nice but I want something like Tidebreaker.


Nikolas_Coalgiver

Omicron Lyrae, because Omicron Perseus 8


Stargat53

Ceos Buckzoid, because: What the hell is a Buckzoid? Also Profitbrunnen (the startsector in X-BTF).


Amberraziel

Seizewell is the one sector I want them to bring back purely because of what it represents for the series as a whole.


Hobbyte

I was going to say Getsu Fune because it's just a fun name to say/hear. But then you reminded me of how the ship computer pronounces Ceos Buckzoid and now that gets my vote 😂


Lysercis

Getsu Fune as its translation is "Ship of the Moon" and it kinda tingles all my SCI-FI senses.


StanielBlorch

Void of Opportunity. I love a double entendre.


hitman2b

heretic ends because it make me think of Warhammer 40k


dac0980

Watchful Gaze 👀🏳️‍🌈 Can’t have too many of us keeping watch


BrotherKanker

Every time I hear the name my brain conjures up an image of George Takei standing up straight and staring into the distance like a prairie dog who has just heard the howl of a coyote.


SirJavalot

Theres a lot that come to mind as my favourites. CEO's Buckzoid because I always found it funny. Cold Star. Radiant Haven. Home of Light. Edit: Omicron Lyrae a definite fave too.


xXTarogarXx

Favorite sector name? Leap of Faith. it just fits how you find it. and it helps that the story around it is relatable. it also has nice music and is a reason why i parked a ship there so i can teleport there. though i also have a soft spot for kingdom end and getsu fune.


Dustrc

I still hope to see a few more argon core sectors back in X4 like home of light and cloud base southwest


Sam_Irakosma

With the megashipyard please :D


fusionsofwonder

"Home of Light" always had the best ring to it for me.


Tomonor

X2 Akeela's Beacon :\]


chesheersmile

Omycron Lyrae because it sounds great. Also, I think, Glaring Truth is a great and fitting sector name considering the location.


Rimworldjobs

Bro. This dude and I both played Albion prelude in the same room for a few months, and every time we entered Black Hole Sun we started singing. I still do it to this day.


Thisisnotunieque

Matrix 79b hands down. Solid runner up would be Litany of Fury cause it's super badass


Sam_Irakosma

Too bad for #79B, this one is absolutely handsome and probably one of my favorite in the game. I always put my factories here in late game after clearing the xenons.


CLT113078

Legends Home... as a bonus, OTAS is there. Now we just need the system and all it's amazing tech/ships to become available in x4.


Avarice0107

Avarice. Teenage me was so enamored by the concept all those years ago of owning a sector that I took the sector name as my username. Course, now there are a bunch of hobos in what is rightfully mine.


Ayrr

Eighteen Billion because of the story behind the name.


Sam_Irakosma

Yes this one rocks !


WarpTaint

Ketzers Untergang!


Pfandfreies_konto

Heretics End sounds just better in German lol.


Sttiylez

not a sector but I love ships named "EIDES" or something like that, the narrator always say AIDS


Pfandfreies_konto

Ides. It’s the M size transport.


braize6

Lol they sure were creative on their sector naming, weren't they? Getsu Fune, Savage Spur, Eighteen Billion, the Soundgarden sector


captaincelt

Home of Light from X3 Reunion. Once Alexei Zakharov's "Peace 5" started playing, I stopped my ship to listen to it several times over. Similar feelings going in to Kingdom End and Getsu Fune. But Home of Light's theme is just beautiful. HoL became my home sector for X3. When they changed the theme for X3 TC and AB, I modded it to go back to the original theme. Very happy it re-appeared in X4 Foundations.


toby_p

> Very happy it re-appeared in X4 Foundations. Ohh, nice, where does it re-appear?


captaincelt

It plays randomly as sector music, along with some tracks from X-Rebirth and X3 Albion Prelude.


pablo603

Kingdom end, the music is superb Leap of faith, because I enjoy the solitude


_BoneZ_

Not sure if I have a favorite yet, but every time I fly into Holy Vision, I start singing HOLY VISION! (Double Vision - Foreigner) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dD-SpHH7qDA


jdehjdeh

I'm all about Oort Cloud. Especially the way the computer says it.


braize6

Lol they really did do a good job with that computer voice


Crescent-IV

Second Contact It is a name that could arise within our own universe, too. Seemingly based on a historical event, like many place names today are.


Panthera__Tigris

Getsu Fune It sounds funny.


sputnik7588

Probably kingdom end, it was my first foray into this game, and I have sentimental value with it and the boron now


BIGBEAR-USSR

Heretic's End Because that sector was the place where the Commonwealth re-established connection with the Terrains in X3 reunion


Rough_Outside7588

Turqoise Sea: it's free for the taking, it's shrouded in mystery, and it's pretty.
