I've tapered off over the last year (surprisingly, with lockdowns) but I used to play a lot of Rising Storm 2. While it was fun to play, you always had people doing either shitty racist Vietnamese accents on the North or you'd have outright "Platoon" and "Full Metal Jacket" performances on the mic. Before then I played Rising Storm/Red Orchestra and of course any game where you can play the Nazis is a game that will have problematic fans.
Before then? I played Counter Strike/Source. Hoo boy. If you know, you know. If you don't know - well, it was an awful vulgar shitty place. Sometimes you'd stumble upon a chill space and everyone had fun. But there was always dickheads waiting in the wings.
And in the way way old times? Battlefield 1942 mod called "Forgotten Hope." I used to go and troll the nazi servers. They would cheat in extra tanks because of course they did, sore ass loser motherfuckers. If anyone remembers "CCCP Proletariat" with stars between the USSR acronym circa 2004 that was me.
Upvoting for Forgotten Hope, that was my shit for forever. It was also around the time I started going left, and would always play soviet when it was available
Was trying to remember my handle and if I could recall yours, but it’s been too long. I think there’s a great chance we did, so good to see you again, comrade :stalin-heart:

I'd like to think we crossed paths a few times back in those days. Cheers comrade.
