The first few minutes of the video talk about fair play and how americans intrinsically enjoy a clean, yet hard-hitting match...this is a video game, not actual war. |

you guys are missing the whole point of the video...yes they say people love clean fair sports...but in war none of that counts...what matters is beating your enemy by any means! |

Then the video got the second part right and the first part wrong. Why do you think there is so much cheating, juicing and rigging in sports? People like to win no matter if it's a war, politics, game or sport. It's all about dominance, and we all want to be at the top of the hill. |

They should just give us nuclear bombs and napalm carpet bombs. They should give us poison gas and force us to stay in a muddy trench all week. They should make our characters starve to death if our supply lines are cut, forcing us to eat our boots and clothes, or each other. They should have audio weaponry that just sweeps past you and instantly debilitates you. They should add in disease and broken bones whenever you're in the field too long or get hurt.
Because you know, it's not like we're playing a game; we're at war! |

Just saying I liked the video, and people were getting too caught up on "this is a video game" and trying to nitpick.
The acting and narration was great so even if they don't want to see the video, it's worth watching it just to hear the narration and see the acting put into it.
I think the video makes a great point that's perfectly relevant to Dust, kill or be killed - no matter what. |

"War is hell. I had to cook a grenade today just so I could cook my tin of baked beans. By the time I respawned that ******* Jackson67 has already eaten my beans. Later in the day I needled him in the middle of a field, right in front of the enemy so that ******* would know what it's like. Every time I hoist my HMG I'm sure this will be the time it jam and blows me to ****.
Yesterday xXxHairyPitsxXx ran over a prox-mine in his LAV. There were pieces of mercs everywhere. We had to send his clone back to Caldari Prime in a shoebox." |

Except the one difference you should have drawn the moment you saw this was that we're playing video games. That video about "war" was in the direct relation it has to real life, and when you die once, that's it. So there are no rules primarily because of the fact that we only live once (yolo lol), and in videogames obviously you get an infinite amount of chances to bounce back, just like football, just like all the other "fair" sports they were showing in the video before they introduced "war". So i argue against your point that videogames about war aren't supposed to be fair. |

And no one has ever said anything about fighting fair.....
It's about making a balanced environment for you to go and enjoy yourself while playing, you know.....the game.....
I just.......you want this game to die, don't you?
Carry on....

"We didn't ask for this war."
Not true.
Germany never attacked the US and Peal Harbor was directly related to US economic sanctions against Japan. And our allies China and the USSR were brutal communists and not any better (and in many ways worse) then the Fascists and Imperialists.
Entering WW 2 was probably more just then Vietnam or Iraq or now even Syria...still saying we did not ask for it is pure bull. |

if you die it can mean the difference between your team winning or losing....yes we have respawn..but many things from war still apply to any game about war...like i said yes you can respawn but if you die it might be the reason your team loses....dont take any chances! OH i forgot to mention...guys this is just my personal opinion i would never force this on any one. @ Serimos....im just sharing my opinon my friend nothing more... |

You are dumbest person on these forums by far. And that says a lot. You are like the Usain Bolt of dumb people.
No one missed the point of your video, you missed the point of your video. F**k, you miss the point of DUST proper. Yes its a game about war, but its a Game!
You know another famous game about war? Chess. It's balanced, its fair, and that's why it works. Look it up. If one player decided that all his pieces got to be Queens (Proto-queens) and the other player just gets pawns (militia-pawns) it wouldn't be a very interesting game would it? Shut the **** up, stop using .... at the end of every ******* sentence. You know what? Better yet, just stop posting.
I need to look for the block feature on this forum, I hope there is one. I haven't needed it yet, but this is about the third or fourth post I've seen of yours and you're done. I highly encourage other players to do the same.

So few consider this.
Also few people think about the absolutely brutal and devastating fire bombing campaign we took against Japan right before nuking them not once, but twice. We bombed and burned well over 50% of their civilian and industrial districts before deciding to drop the hammer...so to speak. (not to say they didn't necessarily have it coming overall...but still)
War is brutal. It's not a game, and games aren't war. |

Real war is incredibly dumb and pointless in the long run. Besides protecting yourself and your family there should never be an excuse to kill another person. Video games are another matter. I love to stab people's faces of in games. muahahahahahaha.... too bad real life conflicts couldn't be solved the same way. |
