tracy_t 0 Posted May 3, 2003 I can't wait to see "VietCong Hammer" where you start out as an NVA member but defect to the American side!!!  Yes, I can see it now: Dimitry L - sorry, Hang No, NVA special forces soldier, working for General Hu-ba, realises that fighting against the American invaders is wrong because Capitalism = l337 and Communism is for fags. Regime change in North Vietnam is the "right" thing to do! Hang jumps on the nearest rickshaw and goes on a mass VC murdering spree, armed only with an AK47 and tins of Agent Orange lite. When you complete the game, the Outro depicts North Vietnam covered in McDonalds fast food joints, with hang munching a burger, gaining weight and dieing of a heart attack aged 55. This idea © Tracy_t. Now that I copyrighted the idea, this means BIS can't make this sort of game, thank Christ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you really think that Lukin was a good guy? Replay Red Hummer more carefully please He was cruel, little crazy, drunkard, who killed own teammates and betrayed own army. And look at the russins in it? Sometimes, It was truly funny to hear some dialogues in this campaign It is immediately obvious that people who made it knew NOTHING about russians (soviets) and russian (soviet) army. BTW. Have you ever played the game with good russians? You'll be long time to scratch one's head in search of good example It's one of the big propaganda part. You've got into the way of playing against evil ruskies. It's unimaginable for most of you to play against evil u.s. or britan, for example. But if you'll take a tour into the histroy you'll find more good reason for make them evil, more then soviets. Tha games are going on to wash our brains. I know one guy who told me: - What do you want?! It's just a game. But I cant agree with such statement. It is absolutely wrong. Is there anyone who do not agreed with me?

Tamme 0 Posted May 4, 2003 There shouldn't be eny good vs. evil setting. There are good and bad on both sides. Soldiers are ordered into battle by the government whetever they wanted it or not so even if the leaders are evil the soldiers arent. Would be more realistic if it would be just normal guys with feelings fighting against each other 'cause they have to, not because they want to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it is imposible to find a game without evil side in main storyline. The reasons what guided by developers can be various, but the basical are well known - incentive to increase profits (why such storyes are so popularity, it's another question) and detestation.

cervomix 0 Posted May 4, 2003 Concerning CWC scenario I think no one excepted a Czech guy can understand the resentment Czech people had against Russia since what happened in the late 60. And it's a very bad taste behaviour to blame them for feelings we can't understand. By the way i can't stand either how americans are always the good guys, but i think it'll never be possible to make them evil in a game , simply cause they can't handle/understand it. Sorry for my bad english, i hope it's understandable enough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
