I prefer to play as the guys in the yellowish uniforms because I feel they are under-classed by they guys in the greenish-grey uniforms! I feel the greenish grey uniform guys weapons are much more powerful and accurate than the guys in the yellowish uniforms!

It just feels better to play on the team with the yellowish uniforms because I get a sense of accompishment that I don't get with the other team.

Does anyone else feel this way?



*I reposted upset and have since revised my original post ..... Happy Fraggin! I was wrong to post angry..... Please forgive me :D

N word? Nazis?

How the bloody hell has that become a bad word on a World War II focused forum? It's what they were. National Socialists.

Might as well delete a thread for mentioning "commies" or "fascists".


Kind of agree. Even if the Nazi word isn't used, it's not like the past can just be erased. The commies were fighting the nazis, aka National Socialists. Not saying that all German soldiers were nazi, but they all had to wear swastikas on their uniform. I bet not all soviet soldiers were commies either.

If the word is used in a pro-nazi racial context, or something similar (offensive) I understand, but there's no reason for it to become the N word.

EDIT: Oh! Almost forgot to answear topic. I agree with OP in having a hard time playing Axis, but for other reasons. It's simply a bit too easy, while on the soviet side you really have to push up your skills.

Its a bad word full stop because of the millions and millions of people that suffered and died during WWII in the worlds biggest lose of human life to date.

It's a word. A collection of letters arranged into order to signify a certain meaning. It can't be "bad".

What's the point of trying to tip-toe around it? I'm not being insulting when I refer to Hitler and Goering as members of the Nazi party, that's just a fact. It's not a derogative term, it's not meant to inflict some sort of pshycological injury on anyone, it's just a descriptive term.

And for the record, I suppose we can't talk about Communists or Mongols, Huns, Americans (or capitalists, if you prefer), the British Empire or the Romans either then? Considering the fact they were all responsible for quite abit of violence and suffering.

I give up. I can see this getting locked just like all the othere nazi/swaskita threads.

Since apparently me saying the German Nz word got my thread deleted, even though I changed it to AXIS and apologized :p

I'll start another one :D and try not to make it offensive..

Stalin murdered more people than Hitler did, just sayin'. Yet nobody even blinks at the word communist.

History is written by the victors and all that. :rolleyes:

Threads like this make people like the OP sound like a "hipster" nothing more.

Why prefer one team over the other? For political reasons? For kit reasons? For no reason other than to piss on the choices other people make?

All of those reasons still mean the same thing. You're not a team-player and I certainly don't want someone like that on my team whatever team that may be (I switch to whichever team needs help).
