World of Tanks

Supposedly...some folks take it way too serious though

I don't get it. This is playing? Who takes it seriously? A stupid game?

Guess I'm missing the "funny" part .....

Yeah, it's an online game where you are part of a random 15-person team of tanks against the opposing 15. It's a fun game & very challenging... proper use of tactics (like outflanking an enemy tank) is what wins the battle. And, of course, how you have equipped your tank and how experienced your crew is.

I'm not sure what was supposed to be funny...?

You're not killing anyone - the "kill" is when a tank is destroyed. After the battle the destroyed tank is repaired and the same crew stay with that tank.

Yeah? How many people make up a tank crew? That tank doesn't go away without them.

I'll be the first to admit, I don't see making a game of this. Lard-asses sitting on mommy's sofa playing some game they can't play in real life when the stakes aren't a reset button.

But, I can't even watch war movies without flipping, so ......

Anywhere from 3 to 7.

I won't get into a debate about how terrible destroying a digital tank is that is manned by digital people. That's as silly as PETA crusading against Mario Brothers because you made a digital Mario jump on top of a digital turtle.

Think about it though. The digital tank with digital crew members is based on .... what?
