Mission Objectives:

I have to add some myself in light of GRAW.

-When you spend over $500 in PC upgrades to play a game that hasn't even had a demo released yet!

-When you build a completely new rig for a game that doesn't have a confirmed release date yet!

Perhaps this is my commentary on current GRAW threads?

Hmmm, 257 is a bit outdated.

[Cpl Ledanek]

[The_Slink]

[Snake]

You Play GRAW to much when....

You accelerate research on the Future Force Warrior Concept (I am guilty of this because i remember excact information on concept designs etc..)

You want to visit the Natik soldier center

You want a job at Red Storm

You want to create your own Intergrated Warfighter System

You take a helmet and try to make a Cross-Com unit

You ask for intel marks when you are told to do something

You think every mexican is a rebel

You won't go near Mexico City

You want to join the millitry just to use the Future Force Warrior system

You try to go see where Bravo was killed at the U.S. Embassy

You wish that the events in the game would really happen

You want to order MULTICAM from Crye

You want to order a MRC

You go on eBay for a ZEUS MPAR (What they have none of those?)

You try to take googles, Nightvision goggles and Thermal Goggles and combine them into one

You start making mods for other games to make it EXACTLY LIKE GRAW

When you get shot in real life and hide you think you will recover from the wound without medical attention

You go to Mexico City so you know excactly where good sniping spots are

You try to look up the Agula Seven unit.

In Mexico City the sight of a chopper makes you run

That is all i got right now

"Hey man! What are you doing here?"
