sorry, but i think adamantium should be shot. Not because he thinks its a bad idea, but because he thinks MetalSyren disgusts him, its not like he's the only person who thought of it.

The whole world was affected by 9/11 in the same way the whole world was affected by the Iraq war, yet EA saw fit to make a game almost based on it. You decided to get a copy of that game, so how can you really criticise MetalSyren for showing no respect?

BTW, Admantium, EA considered the suicide plane themselves before 9-11. If he wants to do it, let him. If people don't like it, fine. We can't all be politically correct.

few things...first off your a "anarchist" or whatever according to yer avatar....second its a form a terrorism....we already have suicide bombers , suicide cars, demolition trucks , etc.....its ANOTHER way to kill people, there is no "better" or more "politically correct" way to kill people, its all equal I believe, dont you? you cant kill people in a nice way in war, a dead person is a dead person, i dont think us dropping cluster bombs is anymore pleasant then what they did. my 2 cents on this contraversial topic

Ok, I'm going political now; this has nothing to do with the game: Terrorism is a form of war used to demoralize an opponent. After 9/11, thousands of people cancelled both business and recreation trips just because they thought it would happen again. All they were doing is helping the cause of the terrorists, and that's exactly what you're doing by saying this is insensitive. The families of 9/11 victims mourn because they lost someone. This is a game. No one dies. If anything, I'd think someone who knew a victim of 9/11 would not be against this idea, especially compared to the weapons the GLA already has at its disposal. That is, of course, unless you've never seen a large group of infantry sprayed with chemicals.

I understand what your saying but i still think that out of respect for people effected it should still not be used in the game. I mean how would you like it if someone was re-creating the way someone you knew died. DOn't say it wouldn't bother you. Maybe 5 or 10 years later you might not be affected by it as much, but I still think that it will disgust alot of people. I think it's wrong

A few other things
I chose that avatar because my name for thisis "A"damantium. Notice the "A". So i found a picture with an A in it that looked cool.
I know there are suicide bombers in the game, but this form of suicide is still to current an issue, and it affects way more people than a car bomb, which is still not something to be ignored but a car bomb doesn't change the world, 9/11 did. One of my best friends had a brother. There was a bombing a few years ago in Warrington town centre near to where I live. His brother died in that explosion. He wouldn't play games or watch movies for years that had bombs in. He would just break down. Now you imagine what it would be like if you where int hat situation for 9/11. Someone ,makes a game out of the way someone you knew and loved died, made that fun. How would you like it?
I don't want to get on the wrong side of anybody this is just my point of view. I don't want anyone to dislike me, but i feel strongly about this subject.
