dod auschwitz map
http://www.dayofdefeat.net/forums/showt ... adid=64360
Quite a bit of controversy over this, ed: Some are saying in a game where the real life events took the lives of 55 million+ this is nothing, others are saying becayuse it was civillian lives the author shouldn't release the map. In bad taste? |
Uuuum yeah, maybe if it were a little more accurate i.e. dead bodies laying around everywhere with it raining ash from the crematories. I would be mortified if one of my relatives was there.

[quote:44634]hold on guys, give the guy a break for a min and think about it.
he wants to make a map of auschwitz, where anywhere between 1.1 - 4.1 million people died (depending on what source you read), and your slating him. Yet you'll all happily run around re-enacting a world war that claimed the lives of a estimated 55 million soldiers and civilians?[/quote:44634] yeeeup |
The quote KTOG got summarizes it all really. All the sudden gamers feel they have a moral obligation? Should have thought about what they were playing long before some controversy like this shows up.
|
The people that died in fighting had a chance. The people in the death camps where cattle.
|
So its okay to glorify war as long as you play people who were fighting? Playing Omaha is a good time because the slaughter there was considered fighting.
|
I don't have a problem with using the setting for a map as long as they don't go to lengths to exploit the atrocities that happened there (i.e. having dead prisoners everywhere).

Maybe if I was setting up my portable mg on a mountain of jews I would have a problem. Its a fucking game for fucks sake. we have no problem playing in all these war torn cities where countless civilians were killed from air strikes and their lives ruined. |
Also it would be cool if it had booby traps like go in a room and get burned up in a furnace/ Gassed to death.
Those maps from MOH and COD that had booby traps like that were fucking awesome. There was a scary map for one of them I cant remeber but you started in a grave and went underground. They had a bridge over a huge pit of lava, they had a room you could lock someone in and it had spiked ceiling that would crush them. It had parts of the floor you could open up and they would fall 100's of feet into a spike pit. That map was fuckin cool |
I don't see a problem with it, but I can understand why some people would. I see the point about complaining about Auschwitz and still playing war, but there is a difference between the Jews that were killed in the concentration camps and the soldiers who fought in the war, and you can't deny that difference. Now, that difference causing all this controversy, I don't quite understand. As long as it's made tastefully and doesn't take for granted what happened their or exploit it, it should be ok. They could even make it a fantasy mission where the allies have to assault the camp and free the prisoners or something along those lines.
|
I'd see a problem with it if maybe there were Jews standin around and your job was to kill them all but other then that who gives a shit, it's a game.
And the quote that KTOG put up is right on the money. |
I wish it gave us the option to kill the jews.

Either way...The holocaust happened...im polish and scottish no one in my family had shit all to do with it...so why the fuck do they keep using it as...omg it happened we deserve sympathy...it dind't happen to you...it happened to others...get oner it make me wish somehting terrible happened so i can nag about it so i can get benefits for doing nothing. |
You are honestly fucking the dumbest person to ever fucking exist.
Please cut your throat and fingers simultaniously so that you may never speak or type again. srsly die in an Ironic manner that is mentioned in a pollock joke |
I'm gonna make a single player mission of the Bataan Death March.

I guess this is sort of related: I can see why jewish people still use the holocaust as a sympathy generator, but i cant see why african americans still use slavery as a copout.
so pyro just chill |
That would be: grabstatte
|
If it's just the camp, go ahead.. Nobody would give a shit if they made a Civil War game and had a multiplayer map on a plantation or a slave ship. calmdown:

again, pyro says anything to cheapen religion. annoy:
Anyway, I dont see the problem with an auschwitz map. You dont want to play it, dont. In a game based on a huge devastating war that claimed many tens of millions of lives, it seems very petty to complain about a map based on a location where only a few million died. I want to see a mission in a game where you firebomb Dresden, or attack nankeen. Maybe drive a tank through the bataan death march. |

...what are these people hairdressers or waiters...if they don't want the Jews business they should say so, the snivelling cunts. |
