but thn again No one said it will. Look, the thing is that this kind of ideas,in my opinion, cannot just be released under a pretext of a harmless computer game! What would be the reaction of the US Government and the public in general if a company would start to publish hundreds of pc games where the aim would be to destroy the evil Americans (would be nice to see)? hypocrisy is a strong point of American leaders, but PC games should be left aside for educational and recreational only. In a long run everyone will loose, no exception for US. About the idea of pc games, where the enemies of america would be heroes, i think it would be a blow out sale! |

Cleary this Close Combat is a working fightsim. Obviously it isn't meant to replace any "real", on the ground training. The military isn't going to suddenly announce that they no longer need field training as this great fightsim fulfills all requirements of the armed forces.
I find it hard to believe that anyone who seriously plays CC hasn't taken away or developed numerous tactical skills - military and non military types alike. And someone in both the US Marine Corp and the RAF felt that it had some real teaching advantages, and I wouldn't argue with that. If I was training a group of new officers and had a chance to teach them a few tricks using this unique tool... you're damn right I would. |

the main argument still is, that a game covering WW2 is better (in terms of political and historical correctness) than a game covering a recent,still ongoing conflict.
And what bothers me most is the question if civilians will be around in the public version as well... What happens if you kill civilians? no decorations? |

Well take it from me. Nothing I have learned in Close Combat has helped me lead a section through the field. Its not anywhere near the same thing what-so-ever. CC is wayyyyyyy to easy compared with even the simplest attack in the field. |

About the game: civilians are present and let me guess, "terrorists" don't care about them, but good marines do. That makes me wonder about all the civilians killed in every war and the kind of weapons that the Non terrorists use which leaves a trace of uranium for future generations of other countries... so much for all the training protecting civilians! |
