The NATO Missile Defense System - ICBM MP Memes So we did some ICBM and it's pretty fun! Music: ICBM OST - The Action Twitch: / bokoen Patreon: / bokoen1 My Discord: / discord Twitter: / bokoen1 #Memes #History #ICBM
There's going to be a sequel of ICBM out eventually, the developer of the game and the only real active modder of the game are collaborating to add in a lot more conventional warfare assets and make the game a lot more RTS like.
I would like that. The best games are when there's a natural escalation, probing each others' air defences and naval forces until someone reaches a breaking point. I also would like a different scoring method, score being based on surviving military assets and population instead of kills, that way you're incentivized to gain dominance through softer means but if you''re losing you have ample reason to go nuclearl to level the playing field.
Alright so since I have history of posting stuff before something happens... I suggest everyone figures out where the nearest bunker is :^) Also note that this was our first game of like 4. We had no idea what we were doing in this one, but the next few games we got a lot better. So next one will have a lot more nuking
I'm still so hyped that you guys finally played this! In the future, I highly recommend playing with the "DEFCON sounds/music" mod... Really sets the atmosphere well.
@@thecommunistdoggo1008 Defcon has a very 1980s Cold War computer graphic aesthetic, really feels like you’re sitting in a SAC bunker ordering the end of humanity, it’s just a lot more grim and dark, but also is a lot less gamey then ICBM, so its not as good for a group of 8 friends.
@@thecommunistdoggo1008 Fair enough, but lots of things are fictional but can still have an effect or leave you with a certain feeling, just because somethings fake or fictional doesn't really mean anything.
City center just a hellscape but just a few hours away is like a perfectly fine Vilnius, I had a similar idea for the Fallout Series is if the world as a whole is okay, its just America that got dunked on
@@Ronald98 I am 80% sure that China is an assumption, a good assumption but still an assumption because I don't think there is a single character that has left North America and come back in the series
@@alect525 in Fallout 3, in a DLC, you go to space and see that China is just 1 giant radiation filled crater. Europe meanwhile was going to hell even before the nukes dropped. Again from Fallout 3 we hear that Britain is in even worse condition than the US East Coast.
Swimmy really overestimated his offensive ability, so much that he believed that he would cripple "NATO's" Aerial defences and wouldn't need to focus on his defensive abilities (Great video nonetheless)
Nothing like the Hoi bois playing a T O P I C A L game where they blow each other up. Cuz what is a friend if you cannot obliterate them with nukes, huh?
If you guys like this game, there's cool indie game out there called Defcon which basically a more stripped down version of this game. Main difference is, matches last 20-30 minutes at the most. I recommend it. It's strangely atmospheric.
I will give some advice as someone who has played perhaps a bit too much ICBM: Ships aren't worthwhile without investing into their upgrades, while planes are one of the strongest units when upgraded, especially if you have non-nuclear stealth bombers set up to constantly harass and destroy SAM and RADAR sites. Portable nuclear launchers are good if you move them around after firing them, so they can't be easily countered, but if you don't plan on moving them, just build a silo, as it's tankier and can launch larger warheads. Speaking of warheads, the larger ones are always better, and you want to nuke cities with a high point count with the largest bomb you have. Personally, I enjoy making Moscow a glowing green crater, and my personal achievement was dropping 400 megatons on that city alone to finally reduce it to 0. Don't be like me, though, keep targetting high point cities, and you'll harm the production and research of the other nation. Satellites are also good. If no one counters them, 3-4 satellites can give you virtually total vision of the map. If you do get countered, it's usually best to try to not do that again, especially if 2-3 are shot down, as that is no longer economically viable. The good thing is that they're relatively cheap, and you can start out with them researched, although you'll struggle to get much else. The production slider is also good to know about. I personally spend the first hour of the game at 65% research, as it gives a bit of an edge while still ensuring enough production to at least have a bit of defense, but a friend of mine likes to do the inverse, having a lower research base, but having much more invested into defense to try and keep me from doing cheeky shit.
@@Danilinart is this what they're telling you piyavka on your state TV? is that why Kiev is still completely intact and you're out of missiles? subhuman
@@MrIluvbutts my God bro how r u different from some z-patriots if you are brainwashed the same way calling smb subhuman? Get some help and stop eating propaganda shit
@@MrIluvbutts btw ukrainian officials were saying that RF out of missiles since march of 2022, just for you to remember when you will be eating another portion of propaganda shit
Unironically tho patriot ain’t that good the whole system costs crazy lot that’s there is so little of them in Europe , 1 missile for it costs around 1-2mil$ and for reference 1 russian kinzhal costs around 1-2 mil$ and not so long ago in Kiev to shoot down 5-6 kinzhals patriot shot 24 missiles
