It's not really covered that much as far as video-games are concerned so it would be original, it would create some great opportunities for some luscious maps and it would also allow for the re-introduction of the Americans to the franchise and a second chance to create an aggressive, fluid British side that everyone would want to play.
Aaand they could introduce the German parachute division as another German faction, and you know what that means..
New 2nd Trailer for Stalingrad!
can't wait! looks good to me!
I gotta say, after having seen '9th Company', I have a somewhat bad impression of the quality of Russian War films, and i'm pretty sure this is gonna be 3 hours of 'United Russia' propaganda.
Its really surreal, I have a friend of mine (a truly lovely lass) whos' father is Polish and whos' mother was German and who in turn was descended from 'Heimatvertriebene' - the Germans who were ethnically cleansed from their homes by the Red Army and the Russian government at the end of the war.
And when she was in New Zealand studying at high school here, she identified herself as German only to be immediately asked: 'do you like Hitler?'
A Polish dad and a mum whos family lost everything because of a war Hitler started.
Shes' definitely a Nazi groupie for sure
I think its stupid how the debate focuses on the states exclusively. In Switzerland for instance there are more than half a million assault rifles in private circulation (due to their militia system) and the Swiss still have the lowest rates of gun crime in Europe.
Mexico on the other hand requires its citizens to bear a letter from the ministry of defence in order to bear arms. Is Mexico a gun free paradise?
The fact that America has high rates of gun related homicides and relatively easy access to firearms proves nothing, because correlation is not causation.
This isn't even close to a good comparison. Eating badly can only kill yourself, or be harmful if you're pregnant or giving birth (and that is really going into a greyzone of what is personal responsibility) a guy with a gun can shot someone else than themselves.
TL;DR: Fat food can eventually kill the person eating, guns can kill other people than the wielder.
Maybe its not a good comparison, but the point he's trying to make is. Because after all it doesn't make sense to take away a right from all citizens because a minority abuse it.
By your logic we could say that alcohol should be banned because drunk parents hit their kids, and look how Prohibition turned out...
I do believe a certain standard should be met for Armed service yes but some people are declaring women are incapable of attaining such a role which i find very close minded.
Well you can find it 'close minded' if you want, but for instance the German Special Forces - The KSK, opened their ranks to women for the last 3 or so years and not a single woman has passed selection.
Though in saying this, although I don't believe women should be in frontline Infantry units, they do shine as Pilots and in other command and support roles. I read a source that said there's a compound in Estrogen that makes women far more resilient to combat stress than men.
I like how he says 'everyone should think for itself'[sic] while demanding Valve not sell this game in Russia and the CIS. And then on top of this he and the rest of the One Russia fanbois expect to be taken seriously by us.
This is why the rest of Europe and America look down their noses at the Russians.
So you want to tell me that the Russian Federation today does not try to help the rest of the world?
To be honest this is not a discussion for this forums but I shall continue until some admin doesnt close this thread.
You really believe the Germans do something for the past 70 years just to pay off the crimes their father did during WW2? Honestly? Look at Europe as a whole, who does all the decisions? Your precious Germans.... where do they put the opinions of the other European countries? Up their asses. Why do you think Britain thinks of leaving EU? Cause Germany already controls EU, you can`t even fart without their permission. I live in EU, Cyprus to be exact, we felt the German control on us with the deposit cut. Russia wanted to help Cyprus, but your precious Germans didn`t allow it. Why do you think that happens?
Cause Germany knows Russia is their number one enemy. And their lovely president only throws shit on Russians, modern propaganda on how Russians are so bad and how we are all mafiozi and we only know how to steal, like Germany is a pure country.
But as I said no matter how much shit you throw at us we will endure. You are welcome to my house as long as you come with no bad intentions but if I see you come to oppress me, you will have a bad life ahead of you.
Just wow. no words for how fucking stupid this is.
Though I will end my involvement in this thread by pointing out that the reason Germany runs the EU is because the German taxpayer pays for the EU and your precious Cypriots/Greeks would be fucked beyond belief without the bailout of the Germans.
And what do the Germans get in return for this selflessness? the same old bullshit Nazi labels for merely insisting that the Greeks spend their bailout money constructively and not pissing it away and making the same mistakes again.
The attitude of Russians posting here on this forum like Paranoia for instance is appalling. As someone who is half Ukrainian Morgengrad, you should be well aware of the Holodomor - where perhaps between 20 - 30 million innocent Ukrainians were deliberately starved to death (can you even imagine how excruciating it would be to slowly die from a lack of food - completely unfathomable) by the Soviet Russian government as punishment for resisting Collectivisation, and yet you and the other Russians still push for an overly positive depiction of the Red Army and the Soviet Union that whitewashes the crimes that were committed by the Soviet Russian government. As I said, appalling.
But for me, the worst thing is no matter how Russophobic this game and the wider western media may or may not be, it will only ever be a fraction as severe as the Germanophobia that exists because of Nazism. The German people have made countless contributions to the advancement of humankind from the printing press to the Lunar Rocket and yet despite this they're all lumped in as these fascist, conformist, sterile people. Do you even mnow any Germans? I do, and I feel blessed to call these people my friends.
The Germans have spent the last 70 years making amends for Nazism even though only a minority of Germans ever supported them in the first place. They are made to bear sole guilt for the war despite the fact Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany were initially allies who invaded and occupied Poland TOGETHER. I was in a history museum in Bonn 2 days ago and every single explanatory text used the words 'Germany' or 'Germans' or the 'German people' as synonyms for Nazism. Even on the display dealing with Soviet Russian crimes and Stalin it explicitly said those crimes were committed by 'Stalin' as if he were somehow alone in the commission of these crimes 'in co-operation with Germany' (so they're even taking responsibility for the shit Soviet Russia did!)It was never 'the Nazis' or 'Hitler' (but you Russians always say, 'oh it was just Stalin' or '...Communism') Nowhere else would such collective responsibility be acceptable. 'All black people...', 'all Jews....' I rest my case.
To add insult to injury, the suffering of ordinary Germans as part of this process of assignment of collective guilt is written off as a righteous punishment for the crimes of Nazism. So for instance, the ethnic cleansing of millions of Germans from their homes by the Red Army is ignored or diminished as well as the crimes committed in the process, like when a 8 year old German girl got raped to death by a whole platoon of Red Army troops.
tl;dr/ The Russians cannot pretend as if the depiction of historical fact is somehow Russophobic, while refusing to engage with their collective responsibility for Soviet History. Especially when the Germans are continually vilified 70 years on for crimes committed at the behest of a minority of Germans and when the German nation is completely up front in the treatment of their past.
