  • Battlefield 2.

    I only got into it because my gaming friends did. It was never very good, but my friends liked it because it was a much slower game compared to the arena shooters we played before and they wouldn’t admit their reflexes were getting bad. The game isn’t very realistic or very fun. You can bend realism for fun gameplay or you can have an unbalanced game if it’s for realism, but BF2 was neither.

    oh and another thing. The official maps are very repetitive and because stat tracking only works on them, they would be the only ones ever played. I’ve played some custom maps that were much better at LAN parties, but those rarely got played because a bunch of grown adults needed to have their rank for all to see.



  • I got lost in the sauce a bit. The tweet is still comparing different statics. Chernobyl had less then 100 deaths in the first year, but thousands more deaths from cancer in the following year. Those were excluded from mention.

    Bhopal had 16,000 deaths in the first year and 500,000 “nonfatally poisoned” casualties. Those almost certainty lead to premature deaths and if we’re including those, we also need to be including the long term cancer deaths from Chernobyl.
