Will you join the Military?

[LiNuX]

Well this comes after seeing numerous Ads while playing Counter Strike in maps such as fy_stoneworld, De_Dust2, de_dust4ever, and de_dust2002.

These ads are for the United States Military. Some for Army, some for the Navy, others for Air Force. I haven't seen one for the national guard but I assume it's there somewhere.

No one likes in game ads like that, I know I don't, takes away the attention. I assume the only reason Valve is doing this is because anyone that likes shooting people in game is most likely to shoot people outside of the game in real life, so where can you do that legally without getting into trouble? In the military during a war.

Anyone else see these? I know it's not just me since I just spoke to a few others about it.

[Juicebox]

No. I have a career already chosen. If I stick with it I dunno.

[bobis]

Wow, I didnt know that but it makes since becuase of what the game implys, its quick too so its like marines!

"OH COOL REAL CS"

[Blackbird]

Well, somebody joining military for playing CS before and yeah that's a bit funny when people Oh Cool Real CS. I maybe can make a good success in Military after I play Simulation oh I guess CS is like a good simulationen for me. I am pro in Laserdome here in Sweden.
Laserdome is a room pitch black and white kind of smoking. There you can choose between 4 team, green, yellow, blue, red. I got like RPG Memberships there you can shooting missile, radar, using shields, spy undercover and everything. Having mines so you can put on walls, floor and everything. Also a good sniper town.
Outside of the room there enters it you can play arcade game. Step on the board to play Stepmania. :D


yea thats what the military is doing lol

"OH COOL REAL CS"

[TheKing]

No, i wouldnt join the millitary even if they promise free tutuion and all that stuff.

[glenofimaal]

i wouldn't join the military but if my parents forced me to:eek1: i would be a tank driver:-P

[Metallica1983]

never my life is not worth this country

[Jaykub]

The Chances Are I will go into the Navy or Army. IF. I mean if I can wear a master chief suit

[rukisuto]

No thanks.
I'm perfectly happy with my chosen career :]

[LiNuX]

The Chances Are I will go into the Navy or Army. IF. I mean if I can wear a master chief suit

i am sure they'll let you in and set you in the battlefield as bait with that suit on

[MacQuarie]

I'd join the Australian Defense Force instead of this country's military. Lower chance that I'd be shot to ****.

[jakncoke]

I've actually be thinking more and more of joining the military as it's a perfect opportunity to get my life moving in the right track

[Trunks]

I never played Counter Strike to notice it. There are posters in stuff on the walls in Call of Duty, but I couldn't tell you what they say. I don't pay attention to that stuff.

As for joining the army, I probably won't. I plan on going to college for some type of web design or a type of coding.

[YuriPrime]

I love picking people off in CS and everything, but joining the military for the chance to shoot people in real life is something I've never considered.

[LemonRising]

I'll join when the war's over ( :

lol reminds me of that family guy episode where george bush showed up in vietnam like 30 years after it was over lol...

[Gordon Frohman]

When i turn 18, i'll probably join the United States Army and becoming an MP.

[Blackleo]

I would join the Air Force or Marines, not because of gaming or anything but long time decision.

[Pocmin]

Me? No. Not unless I had to. See, thing is you play video games and "OH COOL REAL CS" then you go to the army cause it looks fun. Well, count how many times you have to respawn. In one game of any multiplayer death I respawn at least 18 times unless I'm doing real good that day. So if I actually went to the army I'd be dead 17 times over, this is why I'm not joining. If I really do have to, I'll be in the air force, where mere foot soldiers can't touch me.

"Baseplate, Squad 8 is requesting use of 105 shells. Do we have permission to engage, over?"

"Roger. Smoke 'em."

"Copy that. -boom-" - That would be me c:

[omgodzilla10]

Military ads on Counter Strike? That's kind of weird. Many people who play Counter Strike are just 10 year old Kids.

seeing the game is rated M, the military probably took into consideration that most of the players "should" be over 17

I don't think the ads are there anymore, haven't played cs that much in a while, not since I got l4d.

Ya, probably.

[Kujo]

Can I reply to this topic if I'm already IN the military? I mean.... kind of been doing this whole Army thing for 6 years now.... and I don't play CS at all so that defiantly wasn't my motivation. In fact, since I've been in the military, seeing the 1000s of "join us" ads just pisses me off. I mean.... we have enough already. Go do something else. We're full!

[Street_Soldier69]

ima join the black ops.... only probably is... idk what organization they are in.

@Kujo - wheres Ft. stewart??? im in Ga and never heard of it.

[ShadowMantis]

[Street_Soldier69]
