Taliban has been removed. 1 up for the guys with the chip on their shoulder, who fail to recognize that "Taliban" was just a realistic name for the enemy team. Honestly, calling them OpFor... that's like calling them "The Enemy".
If I play this game, I'm still going to call them the Taliban.

FFS, we're not that squeamish when it comes to making Russia the bad guys.
Well, the reason MoH was prompted to change the taliban to OpFor was because veterans who had been fighting for years against the taliban and some other people wanted it changed. The USA never actually fought Russia themselves very much, other than by supplying militants with weapons to be used against the russians, or by fighting enemies equipped by the russians. The only time I can really think of russians and americans fighting was in occasional small skirmishes in berlin and when the korean war broke out. The first pilots to fight the americans in Korea were actually Soviet. Other than thought, No US veterans died fighting russians, so I guess they're fine with letting people play as Russia in games.
It was actually family members of some of those killed, not the vets, who raised the stink. In fact, vets were on the development team.

Sure they did.
Just no CNN around to make a stink,
and neither the USA nor USSR were going to make a WW-III sparking issue out of a few deaths on either side.
In every conflict from Korea to Desert Storm, there were Russians and Americans ended up killing each other.
Viet Nam and the Soviet Afghan campaign, especially.

I was going to go to the gamestop in the px and get it after work but it turns out they're not selling it on base because of this. Guess I'm going to have to wait on getting some good training. Gay

I thought AAFES changed their position when they switched from Taliban to OPFOR...

That won't do. As we all know, Mario is a violent communist.

After enduring this glitchfest of a game with grenades bouncing off invisible walls into your face, things being immune to everything unless you use a specific weapon and endlessly respawning enemies over 99% of the game, you get this line of dialog:

Dude 1: "This isn't how it ends."
Dude 2: "No, it isn't."
Fade to American jingoist spoogefest that shits all over the lives, contributions and dignity of anybody not in the military.
Fade to indecipherable scene that may or may not supposed to be a cliffhanger.
Fade to credits.

Do. Not. Want.

I've heard of a shooter on rails, but your neck's on fucking rails in this thing. Every time the game wants you to look at something, it forces you to. While people order you to get on the gun or get up to the point, you're busy locked in place watching other assholes die while you brush dirt off your sleeves.

This game is SO awful that I can't even imagine real terrorists would want to play it if it had airliners flying into buildings.
