I don't really know what You are talking about.

I just said it'd be nice to sometime see the fight against someone else or from different perspective, get it? Kinda like "Payday: The Heist" thing. It will always make some controversy, and I understand it well because that's the reason I don't play MoW mods about blitzkrieg in '39, yet - I don't spew hate on it.

I joked about the fact, You always fight GREAT AND VERY DANGEROUS ENEMY like:

- Terrorists (who are they, what are they, and why do they cause harm? well...)

- Russians (like it's the best buisness to put the world on fire)

- Nazis (pretty obvious for WW2 games)

heheh, thanks Maddog :)

No problem... but no point, judging by his last post. ;)

Just another guy to ignore.

This is a game forum not anm angend for your propagnada. Nazis, Russians etc harmed Poland but saved others. Political Correction anyone?

Well every country did a bit of good and bad, for example Russia liberated Poland but you can say that the Socialist system harmed it; that depends solely on everyone’s opinion just as you can say that democracy is harming it/improving it now while Poland also did some bad stuff like killing Ukrainians and so on... But still there is no reason to hate anyone for this, in my opinion these times are long gone and none of our generation’s business.

Where as in gaming I don't hate the Nazis or Americans/Russians that I virtually shoot, I just see it as a game that lets me experience a bit of the past while entertaining me, so frankly I don't care which side I'm on, it’s just a game :smile:

EDIT: Some people take video games way too seriously :butbut:

well thx for the explaination, I take back what I said cause I agree with some of your points (of view)

The bad thing is that most ppl dont take lightly games for instance crappy games that sell a lot http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/terroristtakedown/review.html, http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/795/795377p1.html and the best CoD with the Nazi Zombies that all like to shoot.

Socialism may have harmed it, but the Katyn massacre definitely did.

Shit happens, the Poles did some pretty nasty things too such as the Pawłokoma massacre, Polish occupation of Western Ukraine or operation Wisła in which my grandfather was shot in front of his grandchildren while his village was locked in to a church and burned alive but then again the Ukrainians are just as guilty of genocide against the Poles, probably even more.

So there is no point in discussing this, nobody on this planet is innocent. But I think that taking video games that seriously is just wrong, it’s like if didn’t play ArmA 2 because in the campaign you play as an American. I don't see any point.

In Operation Flashpoint I enjoyed playing as an American, Russian and resistance fighter equally.

History is written by the victors.

And thats also true :smile:

Sure, no one is... and anyone (a nation) claiming to be is pure hypocrisy...

Admitting your own flaws, being able to understand and take actions to prevent similar thing from happening is the true wisdom of a nation. Not trying to act like one was more saint than the Holy Mary herself...

Yep, all true.

I would like to just add I'm happy You guys know about Katyń. I didn't thought it's a popular knowledge in the "outside world".

We can all be sorry for what our ancestors did, like in the Martin's case. Sorry mate.

No problem, I've never held any kind of hate towards Polish people because of it, infact most of my friends are Polish good.gif

But Katyń just goes to show how politicians such as Stalin (who wasn’t even Russian) can turn people who are meant to be brothers against each other so quickly. All Slavs are of the same blood after all, which is another reason not to hold hate for each other because of what our ancestors did.

As for BIA: Franchise Down I see that people are so disappointed with it that they don't even rant about it anymore. :butbut:

May have been looked at already, just finished completing hells highway this moment and went on about how do you feel about snow, i can handle snow ect and at the end of the story says to be continued, i always imagned hope battle of the buldge would be next with the same squad, i guess thats blown out the water with this? Really unhappy with the trailer, but it is just a teaser maybe more can come out of it in future trailers which make it more of a follow on to the other..i can only hope, because must say really enjoyed hells highway and the others ofcourse.

Apparently, this game is officially a "spin-off"; the continuation of the main series at a later date has been promised by at least one developer.

When I saw the thread title and read the first posts i was thinking "Oh come on, it can't be that bad", then i watched the video "OH MY GOD WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?"

Seriously, Ubisoft fails (hard) with nearly every game they make

Ubisoft screws up yet another tactical shooter franchise. They just can't help themselves.

As for the promises that one day they'll give us a true sequel, don't hold your breath. It's obvious Ubisoft wants nothing to do with those types of games anymore.

No one does, they all want their cheap ticket to the big time the same way CoD did it.

EA have BF, CM have (regrettably) OFP, Ubi now has GRAW:FS, THQ has HomeFront...
