Hi!

First of all- truly awesome mod you guys have put together! I've managed to play for about an hour now and I loved every minute of it! You have managed to capture the feel of Battlefield perfectly! Smiley

But on to the topic- have you guys considered re-naming your mod to something more "catchy"? Latin overall sounds cool and sophisticated, but if you want more people to notice your awesome work then I really think that you should re-name your mod to something that better brings out this mod's true nature.

I'll be honest- in my case I didn't even bother to check this mod out even when I noticed it on ModDB and that's because of the name. And I honestly regret that I was so stupid, but what can I do... I finally took a closer look at this mod after someone made a topic about it in another forum. And I believe there are many other people like me out there with a certain prejudice because of the name.

Now I'm not saying that I would stop playing this mod if you don't change the name, far from it! Cheesy
But I think you should consider it Smiley

Hello dude

Your post reminds me of a book I've recently read. It's called "get it real".

Anyway. I'm not much against the idea of changing the name if we ship the game on Steam one day. 
Yet, I have no clue for a more catchy name. Any suggestions?

HUm we communicate with Casus Belli since 3 years, i don't think changing name some weeks before the release is a good idea.

Unfortunately no, I don't have any suggestions, I'm really bad at such things Undecided But I think the name should at least be in English, something straight-to-the-point, something that if you read it then you'll have a pretty good idea of what this mod is about. If you're good at Latin then it's fine, but I for example had to google it to see what this phrase "Casus Belli" even means Cheesy

EDIT: "Armed Conflict" maybe? Or "Escalation of War"

Yes, that's true. But if you are having second thoughts about it then now is the last chance to do it.

And it may very well be that it's just me that finds this name a bit odd. Maybe it's the opposite and it catches people's eyes when you release the 1.0 version. It was just my own opinion

Well when I gotta pick a name I always look at my music library.
But Casus Belli is a good name in my opinion. I can't stand all those operation abcd titles. 

But w/e
Operation Battleground
Battlefield revisited
Asymmetric Warfare

I'm not sure but if you're not selling it, then it shouldn't be a problem, right?

Not sure, if the name is copyrighted, you can't use it, for free product or not.

I remember the Jurassic Park mod for Crysis had some sort of trouble with Universal Pictures because of the name. But the mod is still there and they haven't changed the name, so I think they somehow settled it.

So I don't know, very confusing Cheesy

I know it doesn't matter, but the name isn't a copyright issue, it's a trademark issue Wink

Anyway, there's no way we can take any name containing "battlefield" because of the trademark name, and because it wouldn't be very original.
