Can video games give you that same 'war is hell' kind of feel like the movies do?

but in all seriousness I guess you could try the older red orchestra or the first rising storm. Not really sure about the 'nam one.

Or if you had a time machine you could go play the first planetside.

red orchestra 2
>>
>>377755818
Red Orchestra 2, Rising Storm and the soon to be released Rising Storm 2: Vietnam.
All of these, if you join serious servers with good players, fully immerse yourself (loud, no music on etc) with some hours of that immersion you'd definitely see a load of harrowingly human "war is hell" moments
In Rising Storm you can play the American flamethrower unit against the Japanese.
Immersed + Flamethrower + dirty, brown jungle map = Real live imported fried gook straight to your doorstep

That's why you don't go onto public servers, they're full on autism. Find a proper milsim unit instead.

Katana's are ineffective with burning things, anon. Give me a flamethrower, or a molotov. Whichever one takes more skill, preferably.
>>
>>377755818
How can you make war hell if there is no threat of death? You can always respawn or try again! Something has to be at stake.
>>
>>377757327
"Over"signifies you're done talking and you expect a reply from the other guy. "Out" means you're done talking and you're ending the conversation.

"Over and out" is basically saying "Ok I'm done, reply to me and don't reply to me".
>>
>>377757081

Half the guys in my old Arma 2 crew were military dudes, I'm so glad we avoided this kind of autism.

On the other hand, none of the military guys I know IRL know shit about military history or even equipment outside of their immediate job.
>>
>>377757327

Over means "I am done speaking, you can talk now". Out means "I am leaving this conversation, goodbye". Over and out implies you expect a response but you won't be there anymore, at best it's redundant, like roger wilco.

I got that "war is hell" feeling when I first played Call of Duty and its expansion, those games were actually pretty amazing when it came to the feeling of being in the middle of a huge thing. It was pretty exciting stuff back then, though we have steeper tastes today.

>>377757421
Good point. Videogames are more about making heavens rather than hells. Even a game about "the hell of war" will bring to light a silver lining of it and throw away whatever isn't suitable material.
