Do you tell people you know that you play this game?
« on: June 25, 2013, 05:42:12 pm »
Just out of interest, is this a game which you tell your friends about? Or is it one that you keep secret, none of my friends in real life know that I play this game. The amount of abuse (banter) I'd get is unreal.

I've thought about posting a thread covering this topic too but I guess you beat me to it.

Short answer is no for me.  :-\

In theory we could do huge player numbers far over 500 players per server...  As such we will surely keep our promise to deliver you the 500 players per server.

We will probably go (far) over it, but that's for later.

I don't. In all honesty, most people I know wouldn't really mind. I mean, everyone has their quirks (if you can call playing this game a quirk), but I haven't told any of my friends though.

Yea I did. But I opened the Conversation with "So... I was in this bayonet Charge towards some French Guys last night"

Or something along those lines.

 This is the one game I tell no one about. I have had to explain to some family members why I'm shouting "CHAAARGE!!" and "HOLD THE LINE YA FUCKERS!!" every 8-10pm, but even the good friends of mine who play video games all the time are unaware that I play this game. I probably haven't told anyone because I'm so damn dug into the community, that it seems like I have no life.

 I guess it's my little secret. ::)

If you have friends who are interested in gaming, I don't see why not?

I see, I guess it's just because of where I live. (London). ;)

But yeah, my mates are NEVER going to know that I play this game.

Pft, I've got it made. My friends are the same as me in terms of the kinds of video games which we like, so instead of having to hide it from them, I can lord it over them that I have it and they don't.  :D

You don't have friends. Unless you mean Mr. Mittens and the gang.

I don't go out and shout it to the world, but I also don't shy away from the truth. If my friend asked me what I was playing last night I would just tell him straight up. The hardest thing to explain is how I rack up so many hours on the damn thing!  ;D
