Ending the World with Friends - ICBM

[@thevoidlookspretty7079]

DEFCON: this is a tragedy that is to be avoided. ICBM: but it’s a tragedy that you’re going to win. It’s like Shadow of the Colossus v. Monster Hunter.

The speed of those nukes probably reached the speed of light, might as well throw a rock at the speed of light.

[@h1tsc4n40]

This game has realistic nuke speeds. Nukes travel at speeds upwards and exceeding 6 kilometers per second. This means if time is sped up, they will graphically be absurdly fast. In DEFCON they travel slightly faster than an airplane.

9:25 It's pretty ironic that they've just had a nuclear war with hundreds of millions in casualties and they decide to just ban aircraft.
