Hard to translate, because imho depends on the situation you want to use it. Otherwise it´ll sound silly to a german ear

Question: Do you mean "incoming" while playing eq?

what is everquest? i was wondering what it would be in a combat situation if a granade fo arty fire etc was incoming.

I think "hereinkommen" is an good or the best translation! But it is an word what is different in many situations, what situation to you mean?

No, not "Hereinkommen" (= "Come in!"); unless I am very much mistaken, "Incoming!" is a shouted warning. (As in "incoming rocket".)
I don't really know any direct equivalent, in most situations "Deckung!" (Take cover!) or "Volle Deckung!" (Full cover!) would be appropriate, in others, maybe a simple "Achtung!" (Attention!) or "Vorsicht!" ("Watch out!")

But the sentence "an incoming message" does always exist and I think here it is reinkommen or hereinkommen!?

Well, it does say "Incoming!" with an exclamation point in both the thread's title and the original question, so I do think that the shouted warning is what "gavmeister13" meant. Anyway, I'm sure he'll clarify it.

[Germania]

Okay but I don´t think that there is an real good translation!

[gavmeister13]

yeah i meant a shouted warning like used like look out, incoming rockets/greandes,shells etc.

danke anyway

As far as i know, it wasn´t used an equivalent for the english word "Incoming!".

It was more like the german word "Deckung!" or "In Deckung!", "Volle Deckung!"


engl: "Cover!" ......because shells are (and again the english word) incoming.
