So /v/ would you want more games where you play as boots on the ground grunts instead of special forces bullshit?

any grunt can be special when he's literally me

>>720190083
Are you him?

>>720190083
Yeah special. Special needs lmoa

Wild that we don't have Aliens: Isolation yet

What about Dark Descent?

I prefer special forces because it's more believable than Jimmy Dipfuck inevitably mowing down 7000 Russians.

Not action packed. Like, your supposed to be "Sneaky" and half the game is avoiding conflict with a few OBJECTIVE,SURVIVE.

I did enjoy it though, but...... pirate ;3

>deployment zone is a planet that's a stormy, rainy, pitch black shithole year round with a literal constant wind that's so fucking intense the only settlement needs a gigantic shield wall just for it
>James Cameron: yeah so give them Vietnam War aesthetics. Bare sleeves on half the troopers.
I unironically hate the look of the colonial marines

Shit dude, my feels

This, people will say they want be muh boots on the ground, standard ordinary grunt, and then they'll always post a picture of some spec ops guys with custom equipment and unique personalities. Or fucking jin roh.

So like, Forklift simulator?

>>720192993
I think they mean they like their spec ops dudes to look universally the same, no special war paint, little trickets or tattoos showing, different color hair, etc. I get that, I don't like it when soldiers look different from one another.

>>720193081
Yeah, and the dudes from alien are like the polar opposite of that lol
And they were also super cool.

>>720193584
>And they were also super cool.
Eh, they were functional for the story. I wouldn't say, "cool".

>>720193081
Honestly I'm sooner fine with special forces being samefags than I am rank and file. There are exceptions but generally the sheer rate of attrition, damage and logistical considerations as well as declining 'PO-LEESE THAT MUSTACHE' in the middle of a slog of a battle you get real heterodoxy in how grunts look. The go-to example for me is how the United States, being the greatest best organized most logistically sound state to ever exist in human history still had an eclectic look to the invading force in 2003.

They had space vietnam uniforms and guided machineguns, they were incredibly cool. They just happened to be in a horror movie against the "ultimate lifeform". They were still the cool space force of their generation.
