Call of Duty Military Advisor Hates 12-Year-Olds

Read between the lines, I said almost everyone who plays Call of Duty are 12 year olds, but I know some friends in high school that do. (I'm in High School atm.)ultrachicken said:
Ya know IMHO if the worthless ESRB actually did its job, or if parents weren't so stupid and either a( didn't buy M rated games for little kids or b( taught their children that swearing isn't actually cool then maybe our games wouldn't be ruined in ways such as this....
So a grown man who used to be a Lt. Colonel gets his jollies threatening children in an online game? What a sad old git.
He's my hero for even thinking about doing it. If he actually did it, I'd put him next to Tim Curry, Shigeru Miyamoto and Richard Dean Anderson on my list of people who need to be promoted to god status.Irridium said:

That is realistic. Shotguns can have an effective range of up to 75-80yards and are quite lethal at around 40yards, that's 120ft. Someone can extend this range by loading slugs. CoD maps are unrealistically small to make gameplay more interesting. The sacrifices in realism are logical omissions for the sake of fun or are a result of a player's psyche.
No one is afraid to die so you have running and gunning, there are no higher ups playing chess concerned with key terrain or maneuvers so the game is essentially a meaningless brawl, and the maps are all ridiculously small so you have things like the 1887, one of the few close to realistic shotguns, being reduced to a seven pace range. The idea that 8 Spetsnaz would square off with 8 Rangers in a parking lot for no real reason is ludicrous hollywood tactics, but would make for a very boring game without it.
Also, to everyone saying that 12 year olds are the largest consumers of CoD, where are your numbers?
That's true, the Treyarch devs probably sit around and fantasize about all the money they're going to make, then go ahead and do whatever the fuck they want while this advisor despairs over what the game is turning out to be.Alandoril said:He's there to offer his advice, not his fault if the devs don't follow itElephantGuts said:
