Copyright?? Devs maybe should look into this

Post by monty1510 »

Hello All

I was watching and movie and trying to find out how they should rounds, in semi auto's out of rifles and pistols. Having survived basic in the Canadian Reserves I know that all gas powered semis, need the round to go down the barrel and block some of the gas, to go back towards the bolt carrier and extract the cartridge and load the next round. So after i had found the answer, i kept scrolling down the page and found this article. Tell me they did not get the idea from this game

I think I can say with confidence they didn't get the idea from this game. It's an armored four-wheel-drive vehicle with rear mounted turret. That's super generic.

Now if the IDF comes out with a giant remote-controlled spider-shaped vehicle, I think you might have a case.

Well, if it can be shown that the thing is designed to slam into every rock, tree, and power pole that it comes across, that would be some pretty good evidence.
