Haven't seen a military FPS been reviewed so favorably since Cod 4/MW2. Never has a BF single player been praised so heavily. Even Bad Company 2 was faulted for its predictable "twist".

Looks like it's the real deal, boyz.
I didn't read what was in the link (since it 404'd for me) but it
YouTube

doesn't seem like it is the real deal.
Doesn't Total Biscuit shit on everything though?
He's a bit of a miserable sod.
As much as I like criticizing things (and trust me, I do), I'm not sure I can give much credit to people who make an entire career of just shitting on things without so much as giving positives either. It's insanely easy to just shit on everything.
Yep

It must be a pretty shitty life if the only enjoyment you get out of it is to shit on everything that other people like.

His criticisms of the campaign are valid though. The first level is well done, but after that you end up doing a bunch of ridiculous super soldier shit. The Italian mission where you wear a suit of plate armor and carry what is the 1918 equivalent of a mini gun while trudging up a hill and tanking bullets and bombs is really no different than your modern COD or Halo despite trying to set up the pretense of authenticity. I can forgive the flyboy campaign for doing this because at the very end the main character (whose known to be a cheat and a swindler) leaves open the possibility that the entire thing could be one elaborate tale he's spinning.

Despite his criticisms of the single player campaign he does enjoy the multiplayer.

Affirmative Action programs should be ruled unconstitutional.

It's been overturned in California and the California Institute of Technology has overtaken schools like Harvard. It's currently sitting at the second best school in the world with the school in first being Oxford.

Obviously affirmative action wouldn't be the sole reason for this, but it should provide reason to believe that affirmative action doesn't help your schools do better.

Not sure how much anyone cares but this guy got a promotional copy and recorded a bunch of footage.

No way this is accurate

>Germany supporting Trump

Lol yeah right. The only thing that looks sensible is all the other cucked Euro nations supporting Clinton.


It's online anonymous voting and the website was posted on /pol/. You can basically guess what happened from there.

Is there any RTS game where each side has an equal amount of soldiers and vehicles and have to eliminate all the soldiers in the enemy team before the enemy does the same thing to you?

EndWar, Sins of a Solar Empire, Myth, Dawn of War 2, Total War, etc.
I dunno about the others but that doesn't apply in Total war. Unless you're talking about skirmish where you can set an army budget

Sins also has you make buildings to make more units, boost your economy, and do tech research

EndWar is the only one I can think of that did that and it was a pretty good game.

interested to see what they have to say about the current operation in Mosul and Russias erection of the anti-aircraft defense system in Syria  to keep us from pursuing them back to Raqqa if they lose it

especially from trump since he seems to think Putin is our friend
Why do you see an anti-aircraft system in Syria as a bad thing?

I just explained it. We can't pursue ISIS into Syria to finally destroy them at Raqqa if that's up.

Russia has that system in place to stop us from doing so. ISIS does not have aircraft.

Only liberal shitholes support Hillary. I'm proud Finland and Russia are supporting Trump.

There's no way that anonymous online voting could be manipulated in any way. Especially not if said website was posted on /pol/ of all places.

Can't recall the last time we had domestic terrorism coming from the left in this country. This is pretty unusual.
A couple months ago in the Dallas shooting?

I don't think you can call that terrorism. There weren't any political motivations behind the attack, the dude just wanted to kill police.

I just hope we don't have to go through the entire Buu saga in English before getting Super in English, I want both at this point

Super and Buu Kai were airing at the same time in Japan so I don't know why they wouldn't do the same in the west.

Where's the Kai Buu saga though, I'm almost done with the Kai Cell saga

aired in japan, but still not dubbed

don't know why it hasn't been dubbed yet, but if i had to guess it's because FOX still has first dibs on anything dragonball related from their DB: Evolution movie deal so Funimation has to wait [ x ] amount of time before they can get the license for it

So why are we trusting the word of some random website that would in no way have access to the actual DEFCON levels which are kept under wraps by the government unless it feels it necessary to disclose otherwise to the public?

This. Their message this year was to specifically try and stay clean.

How was this supposed to work as a MP game when you can pause it? Even if the servers being down the day of release was true, that still doesn't change the fact that this game can be paused in the same way as other SP games.

because mp doesn't exist

data miners found nothing refrencing any sort of mp in the game
