alias nickname -> full name
In reality, very few people know these figures by their full names; they are only referred to by their nickname.

Maybe it should be reversed then?

I initially intended to do that because I didn't recognize their names, like I'd never played the game before (even though I play every day).
will consider reversing the decision after hearing more feedback from a few other people.

I've only played the Novalogic Delta Force games, so shrug from me on characters from the reboot.

That said, nickname -> real name isn't necessarily a given if we think they're much better known as that nickname. See forum #358717 for one example.

Same, still have the discs somewhere. Didn't play the new game and don't want to.

As far as hero shooters go, aren't their nicknames the "primary" names and full names are only used in bios or something?

I had a brief moment of hope when they said the campaign was a remake of Black Hawk Down, because DF:BHD was the bomb. That, uh, didn't end well, unfortunately.

Anyway, that's generally how it tends to go with hero shooters. We have Angela Ziegler aliased to Mercy (Overwatch), for example.

Okay, let's agree on that.

The bulk update request #58353 (forum #435525) has been rejected by @thefoxne.

BUR #58398 is pending approval.

opposite of forum #435525

I'm also thinking about

• renaming delta_force_(game) -> Delta_Force: Hawk_Ops.

This is the old name for Delta Force 2025. Anyway, Delta Force has a whole series from 1998 to the present

And adding a tag

• implies -> delta_force_(Series).

But we'll address that later when there are enough Delta Force arts to search

There's no point in doing that because only 2 posts under the Delta Force (Game) tag are of the other games: post #22421 and post #794497 are both of Delta Force: Black Hawk Down. You wouldn't be able to imply a series tag because there aren't enough Delta Force posts that aren't of the modern reboot, and you can't do an implication when the tag to be implied makes up more than 90% of the parent tag.

oke ?
