Army Recruitment 2.0: Just Like War Except for the Killing and Dying

[studges3]

fucking cowards protesting...frow some balls and join a real fight yopu fucking pussies instead of shouting and shaming our troops coming home

[loftymuses]

And do you really think games like Call of Duty aren't secretly supported by the military? Think again.

[copterpilot2k4]

if you dont want your kids there then dont let them go. be a responsible parent you a-holes.

[copterpilot2k4]

jesus... its alot better than these kids taking drugs.. if you dont want your kid there be a good parent you a- holes.

[motleyhar]

Wish they would put that in my area... seriously.

[vectorscg]

we need these in every city! screw the obama anti left!

[vectorscg]

anti war protestors need to be killed themselves, these are efiminate nasty gay losers!

[ldahoe]

Question:

Can you still nade in the ARMY?

Can you stat pad at a single location or camp enemy spawns?

Can you team kill?

[SlitheringGoob]

[jake062490]

I've been in the army for 3 years now and I agree this is not how the should recruite people...

[footbalr074]

makes me sick i used to live in NE philly

Recruiters don't deserve this, there other games out there

[mustachos1993]

I think the problem is not that its just another generic tatical fps game one-on-one, there tons of em. I think why the people are complaining is that this game is so directly marketing the army and also has horrendiously patriotic dumb speeches in it. Its a commercial to atract you directly for the army, not like other games that are still kinda more trying to be just good "action movies" in game form.

[Rose0fDeath]

What these recruiting bastards need to realise is that in reality soldiers end real human lives hopes and dreams, to compare that to a video game, I can't even begin to express how distasteful that is. A thirteen year old a sixteen year old probably couldn't possibly understand that fully much less having simulated it, the whole thing is insulting to soldiers.

[benhokke]

sitting in a chair iasanother thing hehe

[bxeggy]

its just a video game, alot...ALOT of people play call of duty 4...(a better version of an army game) i dont see any protest around that game...or any of the hundred other army games on the market. for the most part, that place in the mall is a arcade and nothing else.

[cammmodotorg]

you don't see any protests for Call of Duty 4 because it is not funded by tax dollars and you do not have to share your contact information with military recruiters to play the game. Make sense?

[TheBreaker]

I play America's Army online and I don't have to share my contact information.

So they go into an internet cafe where it normally costs $10-15 an hour and all they do is give their cell phone number.

Are they signing up with the military using a cell phone number?

[cammmodotorg]

You are correct. You can play the online game anonymously on your own machine. The "in-person" events and centers like the VAE and AEC are where you must register with recruiters to play.

[motleyhar]

I only wish that these people would put down their signs and read some literature on what the US Army is able to provide for our eligible men and women. That's all I ask and if they still want to protest after they are informed and educated then I am all for it.

[GOPSpinMachineInOD]

War is just like video games kids! Enlist today!

[Dsteele90]

coool just like cod 4 LOL

[TheBreaker]

FUCK YEAH NO RESPAWN!

[HollowsRus]

Lolz, i missed u Gotz Hax

[KastorOA]

Hell yeah!.. now that would be a game convention!

Sarcasm aside, this offends me as a gamer and as a fukn human. One thing is simulation, the other is the fasination for violence. There's been a serious move in the gaming industry towards showing war as a terrible outcome of bad decisions. Just check out history and games as Call of Duty... there's a a subtext to that. GAME OVER

[pshaggy8]

pro WAR kill everyone who doesnt agree

[mufasa10811]

fuck you

[palkom13]

what a disgrace

[Roonskii]

They should shoot you in the leg on your way in and maybe on the way out, and have flash grenades going off. Photo shopped pictures of your family being slain, and a side room for sister to be raped in. What's your high score now?

[dbeatlefreak]

Protect me from what, 012?? Foreign enemies or my own government? Who is the threat this week and what color is the terror meter?

[Entnor]

Looks like the US don't take war seriously. Luring young people in with games is a mockery of the reality of war

[marcomariaz26]

It's not serious for those at the top. They never suffer, only the little ones ever suffer, and that's the way they like it...

[012aux]

the idea of having the "games" in the center was not to lure people in, but to allow a more comfortable atmosphere for those people who are interested in learning about the Army. People need to realize that the army met the "quota" for how many people they need to recruit early this year. So get a life and support Freedom and support those who allow you to have your freedom.

[Ilovekatamari76]

You don't even know what freedom is you idiot. Thanks to the BULLSHIT "War on Terror", we have less and less freedom every day. Name the last war America fought for the freedom of the American people... come on. Dig real deep into those JHS history class memories.

Get a dictionary and learn what "freedom" means. YOU are what's wrong w/ America. You are a stupid parrot who doesn't know WTF "polly want a cracker" means but you'll just keep saying it because it you don't know any better.

[012aux]

All you liberal idiots need to get a life; you have no idea about what this place does for you. Get a life! Oh and you should realize that the weapons used in the AEC are not real, they are dummy weapons. I know this because I have been in the AEC and I am A SOLDIER! The army is not taking part in any kind of child abuse or endangerment. Why dont you support those who fight to give you the right to be a complete idiot and say this complete BS. Smarten up AMERICA and support the Military.

[thermalfreek]

This is the Ronald Reagan legacy at work! Back in the 80´s when he was asked about what he thought the impact of the video game industry would be on children, his answer was that they were training the future men and women who wwould serve in the armed forcess.

[JustCallMeLord]

Anyone else get the feeling of a world in decay?

Or is boosting violent behaviour of 14 year olds a responsible way to treat our youngest. The ones that will inherit the world.

Or that is, assuming there will be a world left for them to inherit.

[slonerider777]

watch?v=hJfc63rCnWE&feature=ch­annel

[pshaggy8]

war must keep going because in other contrys they have people willing to create kill and destroy other people in the name of power religion or whatever the escuse is war must continue and america must build a strong deffence intill the ways of the older times are gone then we can be at peace

[jblucio3177]

This is such saddness from the american people, especially leading these kids to believe that in the game, if you get killed , you can respawned, but that deosn't happen in real life.

[pshaggy8]

yeah you know the recruiters only offered the benifits that people needed and hold a tradion of honor and sacrafice

YOUR A DISGRACE

these people are dieing for you and repay them for being an idiot its a choice no one forces you

you fuckig liberal

[coombsy1989]

Last time I checked we invaded Iraq ILLEGALLY. Soldiers are not dying in the defense of their nation, they are being used by the establishment for their own gain. Wake up.

[pshaggy8]

wow i didn know that did you learn that from cnn

im sure we didnt get introuble with the UN right the big bad UN lol

no soldiers are dieing for the reason to stop islamic exstremism and iraqs safer than ever

you wake up

please let them finish there job dont call them failures and bring them home and let everyone who has died be in vain

[coombsy1989]

Wow, just wow. Saddam was not an islamic extremist. He was a secular leader. It's only since we got rid of him that the Islamists took power. Funny that. And there are plenty of countries out there with religious extremists out there, why aren't we fighting there? Oh yeah they don't have cheap oil.

[pshaggy8]

yes but lets allow a leader who would kill a soccor team if they lost a game and oil are you kidding me the prices are going back up and theres been no proof or eveidense that we did it for oil we did it so that they can live in stable contry we tok iraq because it had to be the stable area to stop islamic exstremism we fight there so that they can be stop there and not here in america so that we can stop a group of people that think were satan

[coombsy1989]

They wouldn't call the USA the Great Satan (which is Iran btw) if you didn't interfere in their local politics. Seriously you have no idea how much we've messed up the Middle East (Britain and the USA) by putting people in power that we've liked. You need to learn some history.

[pshaggy8]

are you kidding me messed them up we stabalized iraq yes were tore it down to do that but it had to be done islamic exstremisim is out of iraq less and less attacks happen everyday and soon with us and iraqy force they will chatch everone of those poeple who would do anything to kill innocent americans and people all around the world and yes saddams propoganda included america is satan i know my history that area has been fighting for too long it had to stop one way or another pro war

[coombsy1989]

Why would a secular leader use religious iconography? You know squat. As for killing innocent Americans, which innocent Americans? If you're talking 9/11 that had nothing to do with Iraq. Islamic extremism wasn't even in Iraq until we created a power vacuum by removing Saddam. Don't get me wrong he was an evil dictator but we caused as many problems as we solved, even more by allowing a large group of muslims to be radicalised by our own actions.

[marcomariaz26]

???

[marcomariaz26]

no kidding.

[marcomariaz26]

iran, not iraq has he satan slogan. rummy shook saddams hand. we were pals with saddam until W the first, we helped make saddam who he was, and we turned the other cheek to his misdeeds for decades. We also overthrew the DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED President of IRAN, and installed the SHAH, a brutal dictator who killed his own people all the time. Please study some history before you make comments that make you look foolish and naive.

-Peace.

[marcomariaz26]

NO one is calling the troops failures.

It's the leaders and the policies that are failures.

You wake up.

[pshaggy8]

yes making them come home forgetting all there sacrifices and not letting them finish there JOBS is calling them failures go kill your selfs

[marcomariaz26]

Whatever. If US soldiers dying so W and his Kabal of loonies can make billions off of dead bodies and misery makes you feel good, I suggest it's you who kills himself, and the sooner the better, you deranged lunatic.

I pity how stupid and brainwashed you have become. The leaders of Russia and North Korea would love to have you in their country. I suggest you leave on the next plane out, tonight is at all possible.

[012aux]

Fuck you!!! I serve my country, i don't bash it. I protect you and give you the right to be a complete idiot. why don't you thank me. I Love my country, do you? It sure looks like you don't. I am an Army Nurse, I Take care of the injured everyday. I see what happens everyday. Get a life and grow some balls. I stepped up to the plate to defend your ass, what have you done. I am a SOLDIER AND PROUD OF IT.

[pshaggy8]

yes and ill be sure to put you in the next towers that are attacked because your pussy ideals think we should be nice to a group of people that whanna kill us

war is they awnser war is always needed when people cant agree

W like you think had nothing to gain your argument for oil is wrong look at the pump there going back up and yes you can stay in your happy little california world where you guys have peace and love and lsd when im in the real world you can get killed over here

[Ilovekatamari76]

Where is "over here"? You said "im in the real world you can get killed over here

[012aux]

Why don't you wake up and support AMERICA and not be a DISGRACE to freedom

[harryrocks259]

okay i had my uncle killed stop this war please FUCK YOU YOU MOTHER FUCKING DICK SUCKING BASTARD EAT SHIT.

thats all i have to say

[osiris2669]

This game has been around for 6 years! this is nothing new. I don't support the war or the industrial military complex but this is not that big of a deal really.

the real factors that push teens towards army recruitment is poor economic options and other environmental influences but then not all poor kids sign up.

I think it is a disservice to veterans to portray their decision as a result of pure "trickery" and that these kids are dumb enough to think it will be like a game

[anakin11380]

hmm looks like the army's getting desperate

[VeronicasPlace]

Nooooo, was is NOT a game. Just ask the families of those who have had a loved one killed! Whoever came up with this is sick sick sick.

[unholydegas]

LOL huh? All your dinner table are belong to us?

[WolfArden44]

Man,this is scary.They are using video games to bring in recruits.Knowing the last 8 year people were fed up.. ,they know they have to use another avenue to bring recruits.

[WolfArden44]

It's obvious the US is not wanting to stop the Wars anytime to soon,regardless of who is in office.This recruitment center is sick shit.

It's taking advantage of vulnerable young minds,getting 13 and 14 year old's "excited" about war {OF OCCUPATION} by glorifying it with a video game.

[anthonymcgrath]

you get to touch and feel about the army here at the army experience center... would like to see them help them simulate what having your legs blown off is like. I cannot believe this place exists. Theres a similar video in the uk here for the army and I kid you not it looks just like a first person shooting game with popups on screen like "what will you do now? A. Kick thru the door! B. Call in air-support" etc... it sickens me each time I see it.

[Conserved]

The Taliban are evil. They can never be allowed to exist. They're extremist murderers like the Nazi. We must take a stand against these criminals.

[HoZKiNZPooP]

so we should fight with our children? yeh, lets just go send them over to die for us... the people who do stuff liek this are those in charge who are too shit scared to fight themselves...

Also, you only know about the taliban because of what the news orgs have told you, there are far worse threats in the world

[rocketscience21]

Recruiters lie as well. Many soldiers report that recruiters told assured them they wouldn't get sworn at by superiors, wouldn't get sent to Iraq, but then they did.

[uncleanunclean]

No army experience center is complete without flag draped coffins, grieving widows, or empty chairs at the dinner table.

[eurogoldexchange]

Protests may be staged to increase the interest of the youngsters..

[sgtsarge84]

Is this coming out on Xbox lol

[squwilf]

It is those brave young men and women that provides them the blanket of freedom that allows them to spit in their face. I want to thank anybody that reads this that is in the service. If a person cannot tell there is a difference between sitting in a A/C room playing a game and being in 110 degree heat being shot at, they have no business enlisting in the first place.

[unholydegas]

I think your missing the point, The Army gaming center is to get the children interested in the Army and what it "has to offer", not to brainwash them into thinking that war is just like what they see on screen.Human decency provide freedom, not governments what stops me from killing you?not the government.

Human decency, we don't need a huge empire to be free and we don't need to blow up mosques to be free either. The only thing needed for freedom, is education, from all that, freedom comes.

[squwilf]

That thought is predicated on the fact that humans are decent, which they are not. Did human decency break away from England? I believe that war should be only used as a last effort with a clear political end. I agree with you that our government has become an over extended empire. These empires always collapse under their own weight England, Rome and USSR. I would agree with your thing about education but our education system produces very little. So without education so goes our freedom?

[unholydegas]

Absolutely, without the ability to discern what is true freedom, you wouldn't know the difference.  Are cows free, even though they are on the "range" of course not, but the cows don't know it, they are headed for the slaughter house.

[squwilf]

So the question is are we really free or just more free than other countries. I lived in Germany and felt like I had more freedoms there.

[unholydegas]

My wife and I understand what your saying, it's getting worse, check my favorites for a story of a kid getting kidnapped by the DHS, and hasn't gotten a chance to make a phone call or speak to his parents.

[unholydegas]

Your right, humans are definately not decent, And war does have it's uses, I'm just arguing that We has humans need to wake up and take our style of freindship to others around the universe... we need to be like the aliens in independance day. going from world to world eating recourses and gleaming science from each one. Our education system is lame by design, they don't want an active aware population. They would be too difficult to control.

[stu66er]

see, that's when the hippie bullshit goes too far.

it's like they're ignoring the fact that there are thousands, maybe millions of wargames preceeding this army stunt. the fact that the army profits off it is just smart marketing. what would 1st person shooter fans and army fans do if this didn't excist? play counter strike.

simulation IS a virtual imitation, it doesn't = real life even 13 year olds know that. this is just like the cons bashing metal: they haven't got a fucking clue.

[HabsRule92Remy92]

Since when is the army supposed to be a business? (It's not....) and what type of metal are we talking about here? Slayer? or that Slipknot crap?

[stu66er]

yes dude it is. do you honestly believe wars happen for a just cause? are you that fucking blind? Army is the oldest buisiness in the world and as sad as it may be, without it, we wouldn't be where we are.

well it was slipknot and marilyn mansons that got blamed for columbine so i guess it would be them. although really that doesn't make any fucking difference.

[toribaltimore]

Recruitment pitch:

♠You know, Billy - If you actually "kill" Bin Laden, you'll get an extra man. I know this sounds crazy, but God, himself, will descend down from heaven to give you a "1UP" tattoo right on your bicep. That way, when you die (because chances are... you will), you can come back to life by showing him THY holy "ink." But wait, there's more... after being in for three years, YOU can DRINK... and believe me, you'll need it. Just sign here and initial there...♠

[pzkane]

lol @ liberals :P

[bundangbear]

Now we got War Games in a MALL. The two defining factors of America together at last! Kill for Capitalism! YAY! USA! Time to get the fuck out of this hypocritical country again!

[Goodnix]

is there a bar there????? they should try a theme park instead!!!! this is a little bit twisted......:(

[crowdaddy13]

and two, the "we dont contact you unless you want to be contacted" is bullshit........im 27 years old and i have had recruiters call my house on 3 different occasions trying to sell the army to me.......and they wont budge, i have to hang up on them......i finally found out that i went to an airshow and signed up to win a camaro, not realizing it was a recruiting scheme to get your address, phone number and etc.......fucking pricks

[crowdaddy13]

i can see a teenage kid laying on the ground with his legs blown off..........no redos, no reset button, no pause, no health up, no respawn........war is not a fucking game people

[OneoftheImmortals]

Parents need to get involved and know where the children are hanging out.

[kotk05]

The Army is trying to get kids to believe WW2 was "fun". Protest that recruitment office till it stops that insanity.

[Elsocarath]

Thank you for sharing this.

[KamikazeKoscki]

LOOKS LIKE WW3 IS COMING...

[flyyspit]

they will get a rude awakening when they are on the battlefield and realize there's no reset button

[ipwnorcs]

military industrial complex....get a small group of professional volunteer soldiers through coersive means (so the rest of the polulation isn't threatened with war and therefore won't care), go to war with anyone you want and make big bucks!!!

[healthhavencom]

"Live by the sword, die by the sword."

Are they teaching the kids that little nugget?

[danielw1245]

that center looks so...awesome!

[Skumpcake]

Protesting isn't anti-American. Our founding fathers were protesters. Protests help give voice when people feel they aren't being heard.

Thank you for your service, but god forbid someone have a different view.

[Propagandhi900]

You are a disgrace to the values of the nation that you vowed to protect. The rights and freedoms so largely displayed by these protesters. They are not anti troop, they are anti war!

You want to throw a frag grenade into their midst? Just like those you fought against would do to your men? Would do to their own people?

You sicken me. You are in no way a vet, and if you are, i suggest you seek help.

[armanflint]

Maybe they are trying to get people ready for a future war that is still on the drawing board.

[unameitltd]

army centers like this that con kids into thinking war is just like a video game are an insult to every taxpayer forced to pay for this blatent fraud.

[saxmanchiro]

If we just stopped the reliigions from hating each other and thinking their 'god' is better than someone else's, we wouldn't need to recruit anyone.

[DameDiabolique]

Do those games teach 13 year olds torture?

[calibush]

no, that's at the "CIA experience" shop on the 3rd floor of the mall.

[WKaliberr]

fucking idiots 21 -drinking age? WTF

[greatbroad]

Sickens me to see the low techniques used to sucker our children into killing for fascism.

[Kward107]

I think it's great. get all the dumb people that fall for this shit out of the gene pool

[greatbroad]

@ Kward107

These are 13 year old kids. Haven't you done stupid stuff when you were 13 or so? wtf

[toribaltimore]

13? He's doing it now...

[ouroboroshookah]

@ toribaltimore

Yeah, they are targeting youth starting at age 13 and up.

[Kward107]

read my comment again and maybe you'll understand what i'm saying

[ouroboroshookah]

@ Kward107

See the thing is, I'm a mom. Not only do I love my kids (who are both in college now), but I also feel loving toward all young people, in general.

Once you become a parent, then you realize how special people are, just like I think you are special.

I wouldn't want anything bad happening to you, Kward.

[biguy617]

Kward sounds like coward

[P47RICK]

and you sound like a retard.

[Kward107]

lol i sound like a coward because i disagree with the protestors? I think this thing is great.

[biguy617]

perhaps I should call you chickenhawk instead

[happosai21]

absolutely obsene o.o" the founding fathers would rotate in their graves if their would know that our kids are decieved into illegal wars with videogames to fight for zionist jews and their goals to rule the middle east

[P47RICK]

The founding fathers would jump out of their graves and make abortion mandatory for neo-cons if they saw the shit they put the USA through in the last couple of years.

[undiesinabunch]

TheAlexJonesChannel is suspended? WTF!

[happosai21]

ohh really? damn.. since when? i did not notice

[bendtx]

I was wondering why my subscription wasn't there, what the fuck?

[bbnemesis123]

go to this user

If you need a back-up, civilian37 has Alex Jones videos.

[brunsonboy]

Yay!!! Thank U GOD!!! Get tired of brain-washed gullible no sex sitting at the computer all day loser ass muthafuckaz trying to spread lies around. The economy and the world's elitists are one thing, but when u fuck with President Obama thats crossing the line for me.

[undiesinabunch]

FINALLY a US prez with some color! PTL bro! But EVERY prez since JFK was a puppet of the Bilderberg Group private bankers who own the "Federal" Reserve: Rothschild's, Rockefeller's, etc. Obama appointees are evil "Federal" Reserve and Wall Street criminals. Obama is looting the US treasury and talks of removing your right to bear arms against his repressive gov. Why no SINGLE PAYER HEALTH CARE? Puppet-masters don't play dat. These admitted eugenicists send AIDS bio-weapon to Africa via the WHO.
