China gebruikt Glorious Mission voor recrutering leger

Het Amerikaanse leger gebruikt al sinds jaar en dag de GRATIS!! First Person Shooter Americas Army om nieuwe rekruten binnen te halen. Maar ook China gebruikt nu deze techniek om vers kanonnenvoer te werven, dit doen ze met Glorious Mission. Ondanks de Engelse titel neem je het als soldaat in het Chinezen leger wel op tegen Amerika, klinkt goed he?? De beelden hier onder doen me denken aan een soort van Call of Duty, dus ram op play!!

According to a Chinese broadcast which was uploaded to Youtube last week the Chinese PLA of the Nanjing Military Region revealed Glorious Mission which looks and plays very much like a Call of Duty title. One big difference though is the enemy. Can you guess who the Chinese are going against in the title? Yep, the good old USA.

I'm not quite convinced that going to war with the US would resemble any sort of glorious mission. I mean, given the state of the world at the moment it's weird that the PLA would develop what is probably a government funded game with US forces as the rival. According to the Youtube description the title is meant both as a training tool and source of entertainment for PLA forces.

If reports are true Glorious Mission will feature 32-36 player online modes, and a single-player campaign. Some footage of the game can be seen in the newscast below, at least until a bunch of PLA hackers take it down.
