This game probably sucks. But I do want to play a game where you get the full russian conscript experience. Cruel and incompetent leaders, squad mates you can’t communicate with because you don’t speak the same language, equipment that doesn’t work right or that you are not trained to use making bootleg alcohol that can make you go blind and a button that lets you commit suicide.
I am sick of being special ops or some lame shit in every military game.
Time to start posting reviews with:
- “This game is impossible to win!”
- “I was told I could take Kyiv in 3 days. I’ve been playing for 1,190 days and I’m still not even close to Kyiv.”
- “Why is my enemy using smart guided anti tank rockets and my soldiers are riding bicycles and wearing Adidas knock off sneakers into battle?”
Who knows? Maybe the Russian military is out of tactical ideas and trying to crowdsource a military strategy from gamers to take Ukraine because they can’t do it themselves.
When I got captured I was treated better as a POW than when I was treated by Russia.
I don’t understand the goal of this game. Is it to loose as much friends as possible? Because that’s the only thing I’m good at.
This game is not realistic at all. I can’t even rape and torture anyone, like I did at the front lines.
How come there are modern weapons in this game but we have to use WW2 weapons in real life?
I could go on and on…
I mean, the US put out the game America’s Army as a recruitment tool.
Passably decent multiplayer shooter for its time. Good enough to kill some time with.
“Blatant land and money grab with impossible grind. Offers pay 2 win, but even pay 2 win doesn’t get you through the grind. I’m selling all the oil I can for in-game currency and it’s not even making a dent. Huge rip off”
“In a February 2022 blog post the dev team said they would release a new Kyiv map in 3 days, it hasn’t been mentioned ever since”
Duh,just rocket jump all the way to Kiev. If you go fast enough no one will be able to stop you.
do they let players choose to be the north korean guys who say fuck this and go look at porn instead?
Coming soon as DLC.
lol that happened?
I don’t blame them.
That’s gonna be the next major Gamer lack of media literacy:
“I didn’t know I had the option to just shoot at the russians who were being racist toward me, uninstall the game, and masturbate for weeks at a time. This game is trash and full of plot holes”
I don’t think they remove military propaganda from Steam. Fascist military sims from fascist countries are specifically allowed.

Politics aside, this is just Door Kickers with russian AI images all over. At least be creative when making propaganda.
The last time a Russian had a cultural achievement that impressed the world they had a tsar. There is nothing worthwhile coming out of Russia anymore.
Nah, the last time they did that was 1985, when Tetris came out.

Great movies, and so were the books they’re based on.
Nightwatch was fine. Daywatch not so fine.
Tetris slaps. But that was the last time Russia added to human culture
Tatu were pretty good.
I wonder how people in the Middle East feel about Call of Duty.
Rami Ismail is Dutch but obviously cares about this topic. And when he seems to feel a particularly high level of self loathing, he talks about it online
https://kotaku.com/war-games-muslim-arab-call-of-duty-palestine-1851055848 is a great article that includes quotes from him and discusses the topic at large.
"encounter and interact with civilians“
That’s one way to say SA/shoot them indiscriminately after kidnapping their kids
war crime simulator 2025
Back in 2018, Steam stated its approach to content on its platform was "to allow everything onto the Steam Store, except for things that we decide are illegal, or straight up trolling".
…
A social media account linked on Steam to the game’s developer includes a post suggesting Ukraine’s refusal to surrender will provide “a lot of content to make more missions in our game”.
I’m pretty sure that qualifies.

No, they both should be banned.
You mean Conflict Desert Storm?
Both the developer, Pivotal Games, and global publisher, SCi Games, of Conflict Desert Storm are British. Pivotal Games closed in 2008 and SCi is a shell subsidiary of Square Enix. The publisher for the American release was Gotham Games, a subsidiary of Take Two Interactive, which closed down in 2003.
AFAIK, the Conflict series was not developed or funded by the United States government. To my knowledge, only “America’s Army” is a game directly funded and developed for the US government’s military branch. It also is published by the US Military.

I am just surprised that it’s not being mass flagged. Very strange.
Can I shoot my training cadre in the tutorial like those Central Asians did near the start of the war?
The ol Ender’s Game approach. Interesting move. Let’s see how it plays out.
Sacrifice then all
Someone needs to do a mod where your armour is tissue thin and there are waves of fibre optic drones coming down at you.
Also, the soldiers are on crutches and there are side missions to loot toilets.
The developer better avoid driving any cars lol
Just going to install the game to leave a negative review because if anyone deserves a review bomb it’s this.
