I started playing through Opposing Force again, and although it's a good game, is anyone else bothered by the dialogue? Even though Shepard is supposed to be USMC, characters over and over refer to him as "soldier". In the training mission the Drill Instructors say "Now move, soldier", over and over. How could they get this wrong? In the same training mission, the recruits or whatever reply with the "Sir, yes sir" Sir sandwich, and the mission can't decide whether it's supposed to be basic training or advanced infantry training.

Its a product of the 90s.

Move on, friend.

>>31349150
It's a video game, replace soldier with USMC in your head.

Besides. Isn't he hazard task force not USMC. He came from USMC but now a specialist in government cleanup crew

Can't let the little things in gaming get in the way of your fun. Delta Force: Black Hawk Down refers to Magazines as Clips. It's still a fun as fuck game to play.

It never ceases to amaze me how /k/ and other boards get triggered by general populace not knowing the terminology of their hobbies.
We may know its a mag, not a clip and thet muhreens have their own unique snowflake personality, but you cant expect game developers and movie directors to know everything.

why did you buy the thai version op

It fucks with the atmosphere. /k/ isn't one of my regular boards but even I know that a Marine is a Marine and soldiers are in the Army. Even if I didn't give a shit about that surely the main character Shepard would have.

Yea I see where you are coming from.
I do hate inacuracies in movies and other media too, but I learned to overlook or rationalize the minor ones. The Half-Life timeline is a little bit different from ours, and so is the equipment troop structure for units in the game. The integration of marines into army doesnt seem so far-fetched in that reality...
>>
>>31349191
jesus thats a bit too accurate
>>
so what do you think happened to shepard in the end? do you think he's coming back? why would gman brin him back? what was in gman's briefcase. anyone ever glitch through the door while gman was walking up to the counter and see that crazy radio thing through his bag?

>Even though Shepard is supposed to be USMC, characters over and over refer to him as "soldier".
This might come as a shock but there is little practical difference between a marine and a regular soldier.
>>
>>31349454
Yeah, but you call a marine a soldier and see how many milliseconds it takes to trigger him.
>>
>>31349150

I'm not any more bothered by it than I am when the scientists go on about "temporal anomalies", or the fact you spend half the game in direct contact with leaking reactors without your skin sloughing off.

They gave the scientists science jargon, and the soldiers soldier jargon. Get over it.

I think valve wrote themselves into a corner with episode two and they're too afraid to keep going

In the age of google, this is no longer an excuse.

I don't think Marines make that much

OpFor came out in 99

I know m8 I'm just saying in general. Besides, Valve can be surprisingly accurate about firearms, if they want to. Reading the internet movie firearms database articles on their games really makes me think they get stuff wrong on purpose, not even for gameplay reasons but just to trigger /k/ and similar gun nuts.

I bought pic related on ebay years ago and it was the thai box. Game was still english though. I presume they were just grey imports (despite the OF box saying for local sale only)

>>31350167
They had a navy seal talk to the animators for CSGO to help with the weapon and player model animations however that said sometimes sacrifices must be made to realism to keep the animations short and the gameplay fun.

Also motherfucker did you play Half Life 2? the mp7 shoots grenades and the Spas 12 can fire out of both barrels, they're far from accurate with firearms.

I think the average soldier makes like $2/hr
