The USA isn't going to start putting women in the Navy seal or Army Rangers anytime soonMore Fun To Compute said:Modern Warfare is a near future game. It does not cover historical events. I am not talking about space combat at all.jamesworkshop said:what part of the name "modern warfare" suggests future space combat to you
I also said that you don't always get the impression that women are well enough represented not that they never have any roles.
MW2 dealt with a single squads from Task force 141 not the entire military where you would encounter HQ, clerks, Military police, IT & Communications, Troop Commander, Gunner UAV operators, Electronics/Avionics Technicians, Signaller, Ammunition Technicians, Gunner Light Gun, Gunner Special Observer
all of which are roles that are performed by female military personnel
FPS games simply do not have a large enough scope they either deal with a frontline squad or a single member of such a unit, females are always going to be under represnted because they make up so few of the numbers
If however a game was based on the USMC or USAF and had no women performing Combat duties then a lack of females should be unusual
