Kevin Castley WINS The PERFECT Game of DEFCON from USA Perspective 

30k? More like 130k, loved the video and good luck my man.

Thanks!

WHAT IS THE GAME

@@ajeltheflightsimmer DEFCON! 🤠☢️

@@SuperPGaming Oh lol I didn't see that one.

🤠

Ah shit you made the joke a day before I did

well in this game, everyone loses. its all about who loses the less

​@@atom1236in a more realistic scenario, yes. Yet this is a game

@@atom1236 Did you watch the video?

It is scary how close this kind of thing is getting to reality for the US, given stealth capabilities on our missiles and EKVs on ground based and ship based missile defense. Not to even mention defenses like THAAD and patriot. It is not at all outside the realm of possibility that the USA could pull this off with most countries that have nukes given the comparatively tiny arsenals most have today.

@@MrLittlelawyer Not true, complete opposite actually as Russia and China have hypersonic missiles with NK just testing their own successful version. So until the US can catch up in the hypersonic game, the only countries getting stealth nuked is the west

@@MrLittlelawyer not to mention as recent events have shown even our closet rivals are leagues away from even coming close to matching us. and with the growing importance of multi-dimensional avenues such as the critical importance of economics and geography, allies, and political factors and how they intersect and affect and are affected my military concerns. it's getting to the point there is realistically no legit force on this planet who could ever hope to even survive a fight against the US. nevermind win. Except for the US itself ironically...

The USA in a future war will either completely fall under its own weight and collapse into states like the HRE’s or be more united then ever and become the absolute world hegemon

The first one to fly Nukes into the country without being detected and striking the nuclear launch sites first seems to win. Perception and timing always wins in a game of dueling pistols. In this case, you shot off the trigger finger and then unloaded the rest into the guys chest.

Ender’s Game lol

😂

"The Enemy's Gate Is Down". Ender knew how to really "Game Over"

​@@vic3royimagine on the news "the former soviet republics have been vanquished by nuclear fire" and this guy is like what

Yep it was one of the first gaming videos I ever filmed lol

Oh man I love this game. I started playing around when it came out. I wish I streamed back then

I had it when it came out in a box with disk . I still loved it enough to buy it almost as soon as I got a steam account

😎

The only winning move is to get gud

100%! 🤠

Thanks! I’ve also done this from the Russian perspective and won with zero casualties. That’s available on this channel. Subscribe for more content! I’ll be doing DEFCON streams again soon on my Twitch Superpower Broadcasting! 🤠

The full power of gaming chair & socks.

​@@copter2000 Oh hell no . . The damn knee socks? Bro isn't some high school anime girl

“They tried to touch the boats, no one touches the boats”

For real 🙏

Strategic Air Command.

and therein lies the cold war

Bro re-invented operation chrome dome

So you did what would likely happen if Operation Unthinkable had occurred? The US just swarming the enemy with Nukes?

Unthinkable would have been a slog through Eastern Europe with roughly one bomb a week as the allies plus Germany attempted to deplete the lend-lease equipment the Soviets had just been given, and then deplete their manpower advantage (doable with American artillery doctrine) while formenting revolution in the various Russian slave states. Meanwhile the marines land in kamchatka and start heading west.

😂🤣😅

He just casually wins a conflict where everyone usually die. I mean you still have radioactive particles probably all over the earth now and potential nuclear winter but win is a win.

😎🤠☢️

This game and Space Engine give me a feeling I can’t quite pin down

This game is kinda depressing too.

Making this salient is definitely one of the reasons this game was made.

Ikr! This was one of the first gaming videos I ever recorded.

I think it adds to the experience, honestly. Makes each individual order feel like it has weight behind it.

Honestly I think it homes on how this type of war would play out: Behind a keyboard in a silent room full of onlookers watching pixels on a screen as estimated numbers go up

@@scyfrix i feel the same, the clicking along the music and beeps of the game adds to the atmosphere

Do you folks think I should make more DEFCON content?

USA USA USA USA RAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

as it should. The music choice by the devs and the casualty numbers tell us how they felt about it.

I think that was the whole point of this game

This game is boring af 💀

@@olafjansowidz begone, child Edit: just for the record he edited his comment to look less retarded.

MAD is a thing of the past. This is first strike for the win.

​​@@SuperPGamingwinning a nuclear war is the coldest thing you can do, literally. Nice videos friend

Most people would still die in the ensuing nuclear winter

​@@mevolander8478Or radiation poisoning

This right here is some Assured Destruction

Yeah Santa needs to work on his flyin skills. Dude was flying right through the plumes

Hey, at least he has less kids to deliver to now

​@@SuperPGamingyou cut off Santa's job by a whole 8 hours by committing a zero hour on russia

Counterforce is more difficult now than it was 40 years ago though. Russia, China, and North Korea deploy road-mobile ICBMs that can move around. North Korea is the most mobile and doesn’t have any fixed silos. If the US were to ever strike North Korea, it would carry a very high risk of not getting all the launchers they hide in the mountains and forests and they have an 18k kilometre range these days so they can reach everywhere

​@@SuperPGamingyou say that as if they didnt issue wooden Armour for their soldiers, the nirth coreans have half a nuke, the chinese have maybe 3 if the ignitions work and the russians better hope that they dont blow up in the silos

@@tunderstorm2769The greatest mistake is underestimating the enemy. What I say, is that there's alot more money invested into countermeasures than people say. I lived next to a 'totally not active wink wink' base awhile back. I'm confident it's an installation for nuclear defenses because it's right on the Canadian border.

@@sensha5470 bro we have a rouge agency that is basically controlling every facet of our daily life, if they thought the russians were gonna be a problem, the russians wpuldnt exist anymore

@@tunderstorm2769China definitely has more than 3 nukes. Russia’s may be in disrepair, but you can’t discount any nuclear threat. I get the feeling the PLA is a joke, but that doesn’t mean their nuclear forces can’t be effective.

Time to give gifts to all the good boys and girls in Mos... New York!

You know it! By Dawn’s Early Light energy !!

I mean, early Cold War we were developing air-to-air nuclear missiles

​@@Fluff_gobocatWhy did we do that? It sounds like a waste of resources to use a nuke against a plane.

@@bonanlin4972As far as I know the nuclear air-to-air missiles were intended to be fired into the midst of the predicted massive soviet bomber formations, so that only one interceptor could be used to knock down the entire formation

@@bonanlin4972it’s a different type of nuke. Not a city erasing nuke but more of a fuck everything in this general area one. Like someone pointed out, they were to be used against Soviet plane walls because Russians don’t know any other tactics than throw everything at them all at once. You send one small yield nuclear warhead in the center or around the formation, it either destroys the planes or EMP’s them, basically destroying them.

😎

Santa isn’t scared of a couple hundred high yield airbursts. He has Rudolph and the gang 🎅

Where?

Over Russia

I’ll check it out! Thanks!

I really hope you are not.

Sure, why not, we’re screwed either way

@@oberonpanopticonclearly not with him in charge

@@matthewjones39 he destroyed half the world. I’m not an expert, but I suspect that doing something like that would have consequences

​@@oberonpanopticonThe consequence is the removal of a threat

Let’s go! 👾

It’s a very well made game despite its nominal simplicity

no guilt if they land only on soviet territory

@@AdrianRO1918 based based based

@@awesomedude222silence yourself, your input was not needed.

😎🤠😂

Yeah there’s a great film from the 1970s called First Strike where the Soviets win a scenario like this. Could still happen today since America doesn’t seriously invest in ABM tech

@@SuperPGamingprobably more than the warsaw pact though, considering that they will likely join forces

Western countries need to start spending on our defence before we have to when it might be too late

@@SuperPGamingis almost a trillion dollars a year not enough??? It’s not how much money you have, it’s how you use it. Instead of creating a bunch of massively over budget radical new designs that are almost designed to fail, iterate on what you know works to create improved versions of tried and tested designs. Basically, be less like America and more like china.

⁠@@LeavingGoose046 The F-117 is decades old and is still (practically) undetectable. Now many of the US’s allies have extremely capable 5th gen stealth multirole fighters. The F-22, even though it’s only owned by the US, can still easily take down as many planes as the missiles it can carry. Only China (maybe) has 5th gen aircraft. NK has planes from the 50s. And on that “reiterating on old designs”, we do it because they’re _good,_ the only reason the MCX SPEAR is replacing the M4 is because of worries over russian body armor, which is something russian soldiers have to buy themselves. The F-15 was made to be incredibly capable, and it’s a gun truck of a multirole fighter. And that is all to say: yeah I think the west’s military power is doing pretty good. Doesn’t mean though that we’re invulnerable, of course, but we can absolutely, please excuse my language, “fuck shit up real bad” if we have to.

🤠

If america mr housed the nukes and won the great war they wouldnt be able to do much of anything except hold themselves together for a few decades after their victory due to the civillian chaos itd bring and the refugee crisis itd cause. Armies fleets and air wings would come home en masse to fight a war in their own country against the afterath. The US would survive but become something new

Freedom is spread through nuclear warheads.

That sounds sick

A Grand Order of Manifest Destiny to reclaim the Earth and restore the human order? I think I can get behind that.

@@Justin-ui5ti For some reason, I can hear Senator Armstrong saying that. “It’s America’s destiny to rule the world Jack. And we will rule the world after we reclaim the wasteland.”

Or like in the Metro series

Yup yup 👍

Saint Nickolay has entered the area! Destroy it before its too late!

🤠

What’s a little fallout, supply chain collapse and possibly nuclear winter ever done to anybody?

Yes. Twice. Checkout my video playing as the Russians against the US and winning without a single casualty. It’s also on my channel. 😎🤠☺️

Well, he won a highly simplified game about nuclear war depending on your definition of winning!

Well the point is for me to win and get total domination. Point: achieved 🤠😎☢️

@@SuperPGaming Quoting ozymandias would’ve sufficed but that works too. Winning a game that you’re not supposed to be able to “win” is impressive, don’t get me wrong, but I certainly hope that the irony isn’t lost on ya.

Pardon me, but icbm is next door

Some hard phonk music or the doom soundtrack lol

The subtitle for the game is "everybody dies", the angle is more about atmoic armageddon and less bubblegum RTS

99 Luftballons would fit the bill.

Seems more like Atom Bomb Baby for this play

It’s a lot of fun! I’ll be doing more DEFCON content now as a result of the increased demand for it. Let’s make this the meme game of 2024!

Correct. That’s why I’m against sending NATO troops to Ukraine. But DEFCON is just a game. A game I dominate.

🤠

😼🤠😎

Thanks! I might do more videos and show people how to win without taking civilian casualties

😎

Well technically there is another video on my channel of me doing this but from the perspective of Russia… So technically two cases 😊

🤠

Ikr. The USSR is notorious for jumping to press the big red button. Why did they do nothing? They should of detected the silo launches.

The AI in DEFCON won't immediately launch all their missiles once DEFCON 1 hits. They will wait for a mass strike once a bit of time has passed after 1. Hence, why a first strike, if successful since silos have AA, if they aren't launching missiles, will most definitely cripple a player.

🤠

For real

We’re bringing it back! 😎☢️☢️☢️

my first time hearing about this game. maybe I should play it?

@@GeneralLDS yeah it’s pretty fun even just using bots and you can still play with people sometimes as well

100%! Do it! Let’s get a community of DEFCON gamers

Absolutely 👍

Yup! You should make DEFCON streams and videos. Let’s bring this game back! ☢️🤠

santa likes nukes bro

Can you shoot him down?

I think it is a reference to the "NORAD tracks Santa Claus"

🦅

Thanks. Obviously this is just a game, and both sides in this game have 316 nuclear warheads. In reality Russia has over 6500, and the USA has over 6000. So even if the attacker played all their cards right and attacked first, they would likely still suffer a counter-attack that gets through. I think Russia is more likely to fire first in the event of WW3 because they know the US has a technical advantage on conventional forces, and the Kremlin would want to get their nukes out the tubes before the US wipes out their ability to retaliate. This is why brinksmanship with Russia is so dangerous, and why the conflict in Ukraine is concerning due to its potential to escalate

😎

😎

☢️🎅🤠

Santa likes nukes bro 🎅 ☢️

Uh oh. Cuz it’s not the only DEFCON video on this channel 😬

Yup! It’s funny how some of the commenters think I’m advocating for the US to actually try this or something. Nope. I debated the issue of a no fly zone in Ukraine and argued it would risk this sort of thing happening. Even if the US wins, the fallout of that conflict would be catastrophic

Ikr 😅

It’s a great game! I recommend it. I bought it on CD 💿 back in the mid 2000s. My regret is I only started streaming and recording the gameplay in recent years. I should have started streaming in 2008.

🤔

Yep. I also did this from the other side too. But that video only got 6k views.

Never used hotkeys lol 😂

Poor Plutonium, never gets any love, always the ignored cousin

She sounds based. 😎

Only slightly concerning

may God preserve you during her time of the months

That is definitely not a red flag, you should marry her

🤠

Yeah, well Santa’s still gotta deliver gifts to the irradiated children on his nice list 🎅😊

🎅🫨🤯

the sleigh is because NORAD tracks Santa Claus. don't know what you mean about revealing silos

Russia deployed a tactical Santa… He’s not very effective!

@JosephSimoneAverageJoey2000 nevermind it's 2am and I should sleep. I confused the nuclear target icon with the launch notification alert. Damn I should really sleep. Love the little detail

Santa still has a job to do 🎅🎅🎅
