Copyright is a part of it, yeah. and if you just call it SW everybody'll be confused with the FS Vanilla relic.

Tell that to AD, mmkay?

FW is not an acceptable name right now, unless you want a war between two competing dev teams.

How about combining them? After all, FW has a really good concept (better than SW, IMHO), and even though it could use some improvements, I think it's a really good way for FS multiplayer to go in.
Besides, the next logical step in naming from Squad Wars is Fleet Wars, which is the next biggest formation, is it not? :D

UT, please.

AD is making a completely different game with the same name.  We don't want issues. Everything has been discussed, and it wasn't pleasent. Please, let it rest.

Ok, thank you, no need to get mad, ok?

Also, are you going to just do the specs yourself, or would you be so kind to accept a few requests from us?

Given the choice of the teo at the top Freedpace: Conflict Zone is denitintely the better of the two. However, it doesn't really convey the Onlineness of the concept...
