Progress? No, I can't see this even happening with BA. I don't think it's nessecery. Nobody cares about our small little project until it gets big ^_^

Complete means complete overhal, complete approach, hollistic: Not just a balance mod, a complete redesign. Also, it actually makes sense, in that its a synonym for Total.

Barnacle yourself, all your stuff is from OTA, even the name, at least we're creating some new content (Which this project is free to use, getting back on track).

If it's a complete overhaul, it's not Total Annihilation anymore, so get a new name. It's getting pretty ridiculous with all these Annihilations around. That's what my point is, not that CA is a bad mod necessarily, just that it's clinging on to something which it by definition has no association with.

All my stuff is from TA (for now), which is why I'm keeping the name (for now). Were I to do a complete overhaul, I would of course do the sensible thing and change the name.

This would be like if I made a mod about running a bakery and called it "Gundam RTS Extreme".

They TRY to have no association with TA, but thats still some ways in the future... It is a complete overhaul, but a complete overhaul of TA. Would be retarded to pretend to be not TA-derivative when still using cavedog content... When everythings replaced change name maybe.

@Caydr:
It has "historic" reasons. In the beginning CA was pretty much just another TA mod. With time passing by it more and more started to completely depart from the TA "ruleset" and currently it's something "inspired by TA" at its best. Changing its name often was a topic and I have to say I don't really know why it hasn't happened yet (factions have new names anyway). It most certainly will happen at some point though...

If we could just clone a couple of Mr.D's, genetically modifying half of them to be Armplayers instead of Core, and the (BA) world would be a better place. :lol:

Yeah NOTA ships are the bee's knees. The issue would be adjusting from NOTA scale to BA scale.
