Gamers claim they are as proficient as Soldiers due to their gaming ability on Call of Duty. Comments?

"Here's an M4 and a magazine with dummy rounds. Load it."

Then the moment they either inevitably hit the forward assist with the bolt already forward none the less or worse, try to pull it (some games animations do that), I am going to laugh and take it away.

That is such a Bogus statement! I tell the younger guys I work with all the time, "Holding a Rifle and trying to hit a moving Target is far different than holding a Controler and trying to hit a moving Target! Plus.... Real Bullets coming at you feels completely different than an on screen characters fake bullets coming at your avatar!"

I like Call of Duty and all but you cannot just press "Jump" to restart in real life.

I do agree that playing some games can help with better hand eye coordination, but it won't make them better on the battlefield.

Putting that aside, Call of Duty is one of the most unrealistic first person shooters on the market, I doubt having a kill-streak in real life combat would award you an airstrike which would come at your aid within seconds of calling it. Or a tactical Nuke for that matter. If one wants to claim they know how to be just as tactical as a soldier, they should bring up a slightly more realistic game such as ArmA, and even then there is still much training you need to know.

I will say though, I fly planes as a hobby, and a flight simulator does indeed help me understand the basics of flight controls, instruments, and how a plane operates.

There is no 'Control+Alt +Delete' on any battlefield I know off.

It takes a special kind of stupid to believe that

See, I'd just fall over laughing.....

Game on.

Let me take them to a motorpool around most people's going home time around 1700 hours. We will open shipping containers and inventory everything! lol

I play GTA5 so therefore I would make a great criminal.
