    A well-trained officer of the law would not have missed all those shots. So unrealistic.

    Nothing is funnier than this comment…

      I used to be buddies with a retired NYPD patrolman. One of the most funded and well-trained municipal police forces in the US. With regular range testing, they were expected to hit their targets 40% of the time.

      I’ll say that again: in a controlled environment, against unmoving targets, an NYPD officer can usually miss, and that’s fine. Does anyone think they suddenly get more accurate once adrenalin is pumping and a teenager is running away from them?

        I had a buddy who went into the army in HS and it was around the time some doofuses suggested arming teachers with guns.

        He already thought the idea was braindead stupid so we decided to look up cops as a comparison to civilians in terms of accuracy.

        We couldn’t find civilian data but the cops in our state had a whopping 21% accuracy of actually hitting their target (in real situations) with some areas as low as 11%.

        He doubled down on disqualifying police as a real occupation after that lol.

    They will all be playing GTA 6 on release day. None of them have the spine to stand by their convictions.

    Edit: Even Assmold himself will be playing, but he will frame it like he’s not really playing it. He just wants to show how woke it really is ;)

        Unless you have isolated a single water molecule, it is in contact with other water molecules and therefore wet.

      This! Unfortunately I have a friend that is a fan of him. I just spoke to him on the phone on if he saw the extended trailer and he told me he is refusing to play the game. He may get it when it is on sale, but because Lucia is a playable female character, he will not be looking forward to playing it at all.

          When warzone was out, friends of mine asked me to play with them. I haven’t played a call of duty game since modern warfare 2. We played with a guy that i didn’t know, and he wasn’t really someone i wanted to be friends with. He was pretty upset that i played a female character. I first thought that he was joking. Like: damn why do you have to the the woman, that’s why we lose. Haha. Not funny, but you know, shittalk. His rage build up slowly, because i refused to switch character. At some point in tge middle if a game he disconnected and i never saw him again. My friend, who also doesn’t know him that well apparently told me that he hates me and refused to play with me afterwards.
