The realism of COD takes the fun away from it. When I play it I feel like I'm really on the front lines...and that's not a feeling I want to have when I play a video game.


I have seen a lot worse in the daylight.. And guess what? It was not the Yanks that did it!

Those Apache operators are stone cold.. Glad they are on our side..

I will not shed one tear for those taliban.. They would not do so for us.. And that is one less platoon of enemy that my and your countrymen will have planting IED's and shooting at them..

This is war

Our job is to close in with and destroy the enemy..

This was a job well done military speaking.

Though I do feel sorry for them at one level.. It is still less enemy that my brothers have to deal with.

And as for shooting injured taliban.. They would do worse to us.. Plus they heal and we end up having to deal with them again in the future..

Thats right fellows... It is NOT A GAME...

Yeah, that's my point exactly.
One of my points is that using a Hellfire is safer for everyone but the bad guys. It keeps the launching platform well out away from where people can shoot back unless they have heavy weapons and know you're there. Very few helicopters out there are going to withstand even rifle fire. The Apache will take it better than most, but even an AK-47 can bring one down. Why risk it if you don't have to?

My other point is that if you're going to bash any group, at least get your facts straight as I said. Don't just make things up as you go.

Rivals list? Yes I sure did. I did it because ever since I saw your posts and realized that your topics (for the most part) are worthless, half baked and cockamamie.

You said yourself you are smart enough to tell the difference between real life and video games. Apparently not when you go back and read your OP.

Why you would post those YouTube videos again I don't know. They really don't have much to do with your OP.
Your OP is about war and video games. So instead of telling me I am bringing negative energy to your post, why don't you try to stay on the topic YOU set.

As far as your "invitation" you can keep waiting. Really no sense in "debating" most people on here as they are set in their way of thinking and I could talk (type) until I am blue in the face. It will never do any good and you will never understand how ludicrous you (and some others around here) sound.

Besides I have more important things to do then sit on ATS 24/7 debating the likes of you. Some of us have lives, jobs to go to and school to finish.
