DEBATE: What do you think about 12 year olds playing PR?

[Apotheosis]

Yeah their voice is annoying, but if they're well-mannered it's not a problem.

Guys, don't hate 12 or 13 year olds for having "an annoying voice". It's not something they can help, it's human anatomy - people do sound that way at that age. Sure, the voices are annoying, but whenever I feel like commenting on that, I just remember that I sounded about the same at that age, and all of us did. So what if there was no VOIP back then, and there is for today's 12 year olds.

Judge every player based on how they play, not how old they are or what they sound like.

I think age is irrelevant, its about maturity and attitude. I've played with 13 year olds that are awesome and then 30 year olds that hog sniper kits and have melt downs. Maturity is the key

Hmm... let me see...

Oh... Here it is (look at the bottom, left corner):



According to the law, 12 years old kids shouldn't play this game at all.

I was like 12 when I began to play and I'm 14 right now.. I really have no problem with kids playing, but having a 12 year old as the commander is a pain in the ass. The kid didn't know anything about what he was supposed to do, but he tried his best I guess.

And about talking about mature topics: Most kids around 12 these days are pretty mature when it comes to that. I don't know if it's where I come from, but by 12 we were talking about some pretty screwed up stuff. But if they have a problem with what we're talking about in a squad, I just kick em. You guys have to give the younger players in the community a chance, because a lot of times there are younger players that are really disciplined. When I first started playing, I just joined the squad, asked the SL what we were doing, where we would spawn, and what kits we needed, then I shut up until something worth warning/telling the SL came up. I think the reason we get these really immature asshat children playing terribly is because we restrict violence so much that they become isolated from what real world combat really is. So now they think of war as a bunch of guys with L33T scopes and L33T sniper rifles. The ones that really care about the principles of the game will stick on. The ones that are immature and sniper-hogs will drop out once they discover an amazing thing called 'Deviation' and all these rules the makers of the mod have made.

And screw ESRB and PEGI >_<

Im 14 my self and "NO-ONE" has a problem with that. I squad lead all the time. And i get no complains like. your to little. So as long as they follow orders and dont Ear rape me im okay

Age of a player doesn't matter to me. Idiots and great players in every age group.

@rudd: hey age restrictions arnt that great on games, i personally think they're pointless anyways since parents buy games without looking at them

as well women who play violent games tend to be very serious about them, since they're allready out of the norm, they tend to niche with us freaks here at the end of the spectrum

on another note, i've played with some very smart and well mannered 12 year olds. as for language, it doesnt really matter they already know the words

[Scot]

Whilst I agree that 12 year olds cannot help their high voice, they can help, by not talking constantly. Other than that, follow orders, don't be a n00b, and I'm fine with it. Although, you will have to listen to my rants about 'back in my day...'

[Cpt.Kawakowitsch]

I dont really mind, but one has to admit that the voices sound funny.
