DAMN! The game is good but one thing I hate is the item called "For ALLAH!". I want you guys to remove it immediately as I'm Muslim and don't you guys think that you can use the word 'Allah' just as you like it!

REMOVE IT, NOW! I don't want to see this in the next release.

Ok, don't troll or flame me. Its just... Yeah, you know what I mean. I don't know for what purpose you made that item, just don't use the word 'Allah.' Its our God name, you know it right?

title fixed. you don't need to use so many exclamation marks. /DC

Hey dude, don't get that aggressive. Asking kindly would be better.
That item wasn't made to make fun of your religion (if that's what you are thinking).
I guess that DC made that item out of nowhere and then he named it after the suicide bomber attacks.
DC will surely understand you and rename the weapon for the next release.
Meanwhile you can rename the gun by yourself.
Go to CC->Scripts->CC Original and open the file "For Allah.lua" with a text editor and find this line:
1
cc.allah.id=addweapon("cc.allah","For Allah!",cc.allah.gfx_icon,1,2)
And reanme it to something like:
1
cc.allah.id=addweapon("cc.allah","Havoc",cc.allah.gfx_icon,1,2)

Well, as you can see here DC doesn't only do such things to the muslim religion. I'm christian and even so, I don't argue about it - just see it as a funny thing for others and don't think about it yourself.

I'm a muslim too, and I pretty much felt offended too when I saw the item the first time.

For those that think this is funny, it is not,
because Allah merely means God in Arabic,
so how is "For GOD!" funny?

All I can say is, DC either really thought this would be funny or he is just biased and watched too much mainstream (propaganda) media.

i dont understand why people offended because of two word and one contains their gods name.
For GOD is not funny, but not even offensive.

And you see this in a freeware game what is created by a single person, and you tell him to REMOVE.

This is not a commercial game, it can contains (almost) whatever.

Be glad for it, and dont take any offense from words.

That's a bad example. God is the prime creator of everything/all that exists, and a team of sportsplayers are not.

I can understand you don't "see the problem" since you said earlier your an atheist, and it's proven most atheists are ignorant and haven't done their research and homework
good enough to disprove religion.

God is a very great thing in alot of people's life around the world, I bet you love your mother, would you like it if someone made a game where you have a weapon which is called "For [insert your mother's name here]" whereafter you explode in a suicide killing others with you?

@on-topic: I don't really care about how the item is called, it's just a self-reflection of the maker of the game and how he thinks about certain issues, even if it is biased..

I'm really sorry if you feel offended - but this means that you got it wrong.
you should not play this game if you think that it is serious (since it's totally NOT serious!). it's solely black humor using (stupid) stereotypes. It is not meant to express anything.

there are many movies etc. using similar stereotypes.

I'm even planning to add more items like that (making fun of jesus [I'm christian], random countries or whatever).

In addition I'm also planning to add a screen at the beginning of the game to explain what I just told you so nobody gets it wrong.

Eh, I think he is joking...
He registered > posted tread and gone... At least it looks right now.
I don't think someone could get offended about "For Allah!".
Like there is many games about World Wars, Nazis or whatever, no one gets offended anyway.
It's just a game.

Because very much people think very fanatic about their religion. Think of the christian "witch hunting's" in the medieval. Many people died because of retarded assholes who were both at the might AND ignorant. But hey, this is how the whole religion works. With one single "god" there'll always be people who think fanatic or even extremistic about their "god" and want to destroy the "infidels". And your quoted sentence is ignorant too, as it's almost entirely sure that everything started with the Big Bang. Please think before posting such things.

I agree with the extremism part, but that's not what this is about, so put that aside. Also, don't blame the religion, blame the self-proclaimed followers of the religion. If a drunken driver drives his car against a tree, is it the car's fault or the drunken driver's fault? The driver afcourse. Same goes for religion, if someone misrepresents religion, he is to blame, not the religion. People get confused by this and tend to dismiss religion without any research, etc.

I don't want to start a religion conversation/discussion (as it always ends up in topics that revolve around religion) but I just want to say that an atheist has never won a serious debate vs a religious individual that knows what he is talking about.
The atheist dude starts with "If God would exist, then how come there is so much negativity and bloodshed on Earth? Wouldn't God just make life litteraly perfect?".
The answer to that is: The best thing God blessed us with is free will, it is the best sort of freedom a Humanbeing can have. With this comes a price, as free-will can not always be perfect, therefore the negative stuff exist on Earth because we have a free will. And yes, there is a perfect place, it is called Heaven. This current life is just a tutorial.

What are you talking about? I was merely stating a proven fact to another person that most self-proclaimed atheists are indeed ignorant and haven't done their research before talking. How is it ignorant of me to state a fact? Why bring the "Big Bang" into this, are you deliberatly trying to start a debate?

@on-topic: I think the author/public get the idea, closing the topic would be a good idea in my opinion, considering how it could eventually lead out of hand.
