Name change and Greenlight?

[daffypunk]

Oh, cool. So this is an official sequel to Action Half-Life?

[Demolitions]

I may have mentioned already before in this thread that the Double Action part of the name will remain between versions and the Boogaloo part will change right after we release on the 31st. The next version will be called Double Action: Blastravaganza or something else, I don't know yet.

Double Action: Trigger?

[Dementei]

Oh, cool. So this is an official sequel to Action Half-Life?

it's more like an unofficial spiritual successor of The Specialists, yet DAB is something much different than all that came before. It has, I feel, a lot more depth other than just shootin' around, it's quite a new direction for "matrix" mods.

[Black_Stormy]

I like "Boogaloo" because it screams 'tacky b-grade asian action movie title'. But I can't think of anything that is different enough but still carries that sentiment. Double Action: Action Harder?

[Demolitions]

Double Action: Big Trouble

Double Action: Sucka

Double Action: Yippee-ki-yay

[The_Silver]

Hi guys, thanks for this fantastic mod, can't wait for the next version! Anyway, I have a suggestion that should make you think about action movies stereotypes and over the top hollywood action! Double Action: Hero

[daffypunk]

Had a chance to jump on and play around a bit. Some cool ideas. I have to say though, the name and the video is what brought me in, but I really think you guys are going to confuse and maybe piss off AHL /AQ2 fans with that name. I was fooled. If it's more a spiritual successor to the Specialists, why not go with that? That had a huge player base at the time.

[Dementei]

lol it is a spiritual successor of TS but we weren't going to make it TS:Source as DAB is much different than TS, having Boogaloo as a codename also gives the mod a unique title.

Double Action: Pump Action

Probably to late to put in my two cents...

[The_Silver]

I'd go for Double Action: Style Overload, it's perfectly balanced (stupid-serious, generic-specific etc).

[Scout]

I read that as "Style Overlord," which I might like even better.
