DEFCON 6-CPU Player Simulation [HD]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- DEFCON is an awesome PC, Mac, and Linux (yes, Linux!) game made by Introversion Software.
In this game, I pit 6 CPU-controlled players against each other to see who will lose the least.
You can buy DEFCON directly from the developers or on Steam.

This is the kind of game that needs to be played in a dark room with a loud surround sound system.
Or in the Rift ;)
Call Of Deadly TTGL is better than KLK.
I gotta admit, you're right, the ending of TTGL was fucking badass, I mean, they were throwing fucking galaxies around lol But I just like the look of Ryuko on my thumbnail ^_^
Call Of Deadly I will agree with you on that one. I preferred Ryuko over Yoko for some reason.
I mean, Yoko was good, but had a lot less screen time then I thought she would have :/
In my opinion, this game is rather optimistic: it supposes every country has a fully functional and efective missile defense system. Things would be worse...
Luis Lara (I am aware your comment is three years old)
no. That's the unrealistic side to this game.
having a six player game. for example Africa having nukes?
I think it's just the game compensating for extra players.
but in theory. if every continent had nukes...mm...oh dear. things would be interesting.
Comrade Dolman, South Africa is confirmed to have nukes.
Yes, it took a while to detect that, but yeah...scads of ABMs.
It would be worse: no defence sistems, 15000 nukes in the world while this game has over 90 nukes per player and a predesigned nuking plan while this game improvise.
dontquestionmyactions South Africa, with the government it has? Oh lord....
Australia just sitting this one out.
Australia is background area for nuclear war in north hemisphere! Brazil is NATO 's background area and it's ready to supply ocidental efforts of war. Australia is background area for China! We will be slaves and will be hungry to support life in north hemisphere after the nuclear war! I would be not so happy if I were you!
Oceania*
Tie me kangaroo down, mate
Ya Mum Sorry, man. We are all at globalist's hands. You must be ready to fight alone or with too litttle help.
You must have a great navy tô avoid landding of chinese trops.
Are you okay?
Are you brainwashed?

I love how the soundtrack captures the cold calculated stillness of witnessing humanity obliterate itself on screen within some sort of creepy ungrounded command center.
Agreed. The fact that the units themselves have no audio of any sort makes it seem like they're only reports you're getting in real time.
@@bboi1489I mean you can hear the sound of engines sometimes, and the distant rumble of bombs, or if they landed on your soul, the wind.
At 4:35 you can see the exact moment it goes from a large nuclear exchange to a full blown apocalypse. Everyone's fate was sealed after that.
+rot0001 except the southeast asia and australlia (plus microindonesia,fiji and new zealand)
Haha something like this dude. The entire planet is fucked. Doesn't matter where you live. Everyone is going to die.
Jackson B. McKee also nuclear winter
Damn you player 4
It slowly went from limited nuclear war to a large exchange only to go full blown nuclear armageddon in a snap of the fingers. Fucking terrifying If you ask me. If a full scale nuclear war were to ever occur it wouldn't be caused by some disagreement. But by something very fundamentally wrong with us as a civilization.
The part where all the ground silos launched and seeing the launch icons flash across the screen gave me chills
"This is no longer war. This is the end."
@@TrueFlameslinger "it was never a war, it was massacre."
@@gabbyn.3049 *Its not a massacre*
*its the thing my people fear*
*TOTAL ARMAGEDDON*
An interesting game you have here.
The only winning move...
Is not to play.
the fact that there is no more music or intense sounds after the game ended, just like the complete silence that would be after a nuclear war, is the scariest thing in this game in my opinion.
If you hear until the end you can hear a woman crying and someone screaming, that and the dead silence creeps me out the worst
Yeah. There is no victory screen or anything. Just pure silence. You as the player are probably in some kind of bunker far away from the bombs. It just gives a sense of dread.

"YOU MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP! GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!"
Imagine seeing this unfold in the war room. Or being in the ISS and seeing constant flashes from continents
"You can't fight in here! This is the War Room"!
I guess both sintuations are the defcon game...
And then the life support shuts off when the EMPs fry the electronics
Just the astronauts: well then
Do we want to go back when we see no more flashes?
Astronauts: maybe
Well h-bombs can actually throw up atmosphere into space. Idk what the volume is but maybe it would just induce too much drag and take down the station with an unlucky hit.
After Europe was covered in a green mist and i still saw small white circles appearing i was like "Please, Stop! Its already dead!"
This was a machine acting too much like a human. AI is more dangerous than nukes. We will see it.
cities still have high pop after one nuke, you have to nuke them like 3 times to kill the most amount of ppl

Europe?
I remember doing the tutorial, I remember the final level and I won against China. It said I won and at first I was glad I won and completed the tutorial. Then I noticed something. The silence. I realized not only had I wiped out the entirety of Asia I had also wiped out myself and the entire world. The more cities you flatten and kill its entire population the more points grow on the board. I was horrified, this is the most terrifying game I have ever played.
After Us, Silence
-motto of the Russian Nuclear Program
You can never win, you just get better every time
@@Bixen_Bingsthere is a way to win. Very hard, certainly impossible when there are other players out to kill, but basically a first strike and somehow managing to take out all or most of their nukes while keeping silos for defense to limit civilian loss of life
@@GamerGod-fp1tj is that winning?
@@Avrelianvs yep. If you avoid your population being lost while simultaneously destroying the opponents capability to strike your cities, thats a victory. Maybe not an ingame victory, but a realistic one

That womans breathing is creepy
hi
It's a reminder of the suffering your putting millions of survivors trough by nuking the crap out of the cities they live in.
@@warpey5632 why
@@skurd721
The whole game is a commentary on the reality of nuclear war and mutually assured destruction. The UI setup puts you very uncannily in the shoes of someone set apart from the conflict in a secure bunker, the casualties no more than statistics rapidly climbing into the hundreds of millions. The background noises, coughs, creepy breathing, eerie reminders of the individual human cost those numbers ticking up really represent.
I think it's a fairly brilliant artistic choice.
@@ryanalving3785 Okay. I'm just mourning the chain warpey absolutely obliterated. And yes, I am nine.

This game is fucking disturbing.
I spent the video trying to work out what that noise was until at the end there. That's pretty sobering, to say the least.
Filatus Wienerberg It sounds like a scene STRAIGHT FROM HELL itself! :-(
That seems to be the point. It's a little surreal; in the default score system, you gain 2 points for every million people you kill and lose one for every million of your people who die (gives those scores a little perspective). So you'll catch yourself cheering when you hit, say, New York, because 5 million might die right away so that's 10 points. Then you realise you just got happy over killing millions of people. Weird
JoHn DoE That DEFCON really IS a mighty SICKO game, isn't it?! :-o
Gaylord Cohen Yeah, it is...
oh, some of my nukes just hit London; yay!
I played the game on Genocide mode, and as soon as the world hit Defcon 1, ALL OF NORTH AMERICA AND CHINA WENT FUCKING BALLISTIC. THEY TEAMED UP AND WIPED OUT EUROPE AND RUSSIA. It was the most amazing thing I've seen in this game. And then when they ran out of nukes, I destroyed the Eastern Seaboard of America and then most of China. I was playing as Africa by the way.
This will probably not age well...
That was not the purpose of this game
@@beaub152who tf cares, we should be allowed to have fun even in our darkest hours
@@beyondthegrave124 fair enough
This is the most haunting game I think has ever been made. Crappy "horrors" have nothing on this. The sound that goes off each time a new Defcon level is reached really gets under your skin.

so, are we gonna ignore that Latin America won the Nuclear War? Seems legit
It's just a game
@@mobius_1163 and yet everyone gets so emotional about it

South Africa developed and tested a nuclear bomb over the Indian Ocean in 1984. They are the only country to have gained and then given up the capability. The Nationlist Apartheid government got rid of the system just before power was handed over to the ANC in 1994 when Nelson Mandela came to power.

This game ... ifs fucking unreal. You feel great when those bombs hit those enemy silos. You feel fantastic when a cadre of submarines narrowly avoid a carrier and battle ship group to position -just right- off Madagascar for a primo strike. You raise your fist up in the air as the missiles land and you see that carpet of bloom. And then you hear the cries in the background of distraught mothers.
You realize the simple 2D graphics removed you from the personal horror you unleashed. Great game.

This is the first video I saw where they don't just cut it as soon as the game is over and you can actually hear the silence and see the aftermath
In my limited experience with the demo version, it is usually best to pay defensive and try to shoot down as many nukes targetting you as possibe, then go on the offensive once the enemy is spent. Ideally try to eliminate their silos with subs and bombers when they start launching, as payer with no silos is pretty much defenceless against your ICBMs
In my limited experience in game, I was luckily playing with other newbies. Manages to barely take any loss to myself, tricking them into war with eachother, while making them ally with me, and then swooping in with the classic “oh my bombers are just passing over your airspace don’t worry” and then launching the nuke trick. Depending on what score mode is being used, either I attack their silos and other military buildings to destroy as many of their nukes as possible, or in genocide mode, I try to destroy as many of their cities in the exact same moment as possible. Have to make sure I leave the alliance a nanosecond before the nukes hit though, or I also lose points for collateral
About forty years before this match:
"There was a nuclear war. A few years from now, all this, this whole place, everything, it’s gone. Just gone. There were survivors. Here, there. Nobody even knew who started it. It was the machines, Sarah. ... Defense network computers. New… powerful… hooked into everything, trusted to run it all. They say it got smart, a new order of intelligence. Then it saw all people as a threat, not just the ones on the other side. Decided our fate in a microsecond: extermination."
The scary thing about DEFCON is that it’s not machines running everything, the player pushes the buttons
It's scary because the possibility of something like this happening is very real.
And your goddamn right
Not really. Despite nukes being a weapon of war, they have brought unprecedented peace
@GamerGod-fp1tj "Eventually the stockpiles got so big, and the weapons became so unimaginably *monstrous* that neither side could actually envision using them." -Dr. Primrose, SCP-6001
Nah,this ain't no 1945.
I would really like it if this never happens in real life.
johnathan sena it may, we are currently in DEFCON 3
+Pleiades Co. we are not In a fucking defcon
wrong, "defcon" doesn't mean war, defcon 5 for example means total tranquility.
the defcon system does exist and is in place the closest we ever came was defcon 2. all millitary forces we're ready to be mobilized, missiles ready to launch on detection and all our bombers we're armed and in the air
Well after the recent heated confrontation with China and USA with Taiwan s independence I can't guarantee anymore if we would keep the peace let's just pray to God for peace and safety
288.1 million deaths in total. A real nuclear war would have deaths in the billions. However terrifying this game is, this is still a stubbornly optimistic best case scenario. So sleep well tonight.
That's just the figure for the people who died in the first 24 hours.
The radiation will finish off most of the rest of the species.
To be fair, there are only 600 million people too: 100 million per person. So 48% of the worlds population was destroyed in about an hour or two.
China shot down almost all nukes, india did too so makes sense
@@meteorknight999 still 1 billion in europe. Death rate too low
Nukes wouldn't be able to kill everyone, even in a continent as dense as Europe has too many hills, small towns, and potential survivors to completely obliterate a population. In fact, it's not the bombing itself that makes nuclear war so horrible. It's the billions of people left alive afterwards that have to face a world where the modern economy, major urban centers, and government power has been destroyed within minutes.
"Victory timer started" What victory? Setting back or utterly annihilating your fellow man, for what gain? Power, prestige, oil or other resources? I view this game as a warning. Nobody wins in nuclear war
But someone loses the least
The last nation standing is the winner. If there is still a nation.
we've known that for decades. Yet we can't disarm unless the other side also disarms. And we can't come off the hair trigger because then we can't respond in time if the other side launches.
Personally I want all players to sit down and agree to get rid of all warheads, once and for all.
@@neutrino78xno. As terrifying as nukes are, they kept the peace and still are. There’s a reason why WW3 didn’t happen soon after WW2. Despite the nuke being a weapon of mass murder, it has ironically brought an unprecedented period of peace for man-kind
@@GamerGod-fp1tj
"no. As terrifying as nukes are, they kept the peace and still are. "
As a Trident submarine veteran, I don't disagree.
But it's not morally right for the world to live under that sword of Damocles.
If I could get all five powers to the table and agree to disarm simultaneously, I would. And of course that's common sense and official policy, and that's why we keep having arms summits, and we've reduced the stockpiles by a huge amount.
Hopefully someday we can negotiate it down to zero.
I feel bad for Europe
jack lind what Europe?
You mean the many holes in the ground?
The Silver Wolf that’s the one
@@thesilverwolf4627 you mean that glowing sea over there?
note that the UK and France have their own independent warheads (although they are allies of the USA and we work together).

That the interface is so cold makes it more poignant, this is how cold and lifeless it is to render the world cold and lifeless. Each detonation is megadeaths.

@@Commodore22345 I dunno, actually. No other extinction event has caused parts of the Earth to become radiated hellscapes. Maybe some creatures would live, but evolution would be set back eons.
@@Commodore22345 Yeah, that's true. It would be a setback, but the Earth would recover, unlike humans.
Even after all the missiles have flown, they’re still fighting. War really never changes, does it?
Yep. Truth be told, even if nukes fell in real life, the fight would continue far past them. Infact, Russia has back up nukes in their submarines with rations to survive a year before launching nukes. This could mean a second wave, or holding the west hostage after the initial nuclear war. But either way it’s thankfully improbable for a nuclear war to start; despite nukes being a mass murder device, it’s brought unprecedented peace
I like to think it is the few pilots in the air flying high in the atmosphere, they took off, watched the silos launch, missiles rising, all they could see when looking through their cockpit was a sea of them passing over, sealing their homes, their family's fate. Later on, flashes, the earth turning to a last bright light before darkness ensues. These pilots, they lost everything. Remnants of an old world. Their only wish now is for revenge on the enemy, on the people who they think pushed the button first, even though they were ordered to launch too in the first place. Fighting until the end for nothing is waiting for them. No salvation. Only them and the deafening silence ordered by faceless men, never to be remembered.
This game makes me sad.

You know that sooner or later you’ll be watching a video of this kind on every screen around you.
Eh nah, unfortunately just a solid screen saying emergency broadcast, please wait for a soldier to arrive to your door to escort you to a fallout shelter (if your country still has those) or you’ll be advised to hide in your basement
The most chilling part is when it says “VICTORY TO PLAYER 3” but the big red “GAME OVER” lingers on the screen 😟
Meanwhile Australia is down there going "WTF, mate?"
But I'm le tired.
Living in Greenland must be fascinating in such event
Fatin Marwat maybe Australia. Just maybe
Sam Johnson No. Wind exists. It would blow the fallout straight into your face.
The entire earth would undergo a nuclear winter from so many bombs, so much debris would block out the sun . Fallout would cast the earth 10 times wrapping it in a radioactive blanket of death. Earth would be as desolate as mars. Or perhaps some smaller more resilient organisms would survive, but I don't know.
Greenland is a protectorate of Denmark, which is a member of NATO. At the very least I would expect Thule USAF Base to be hit.

Hello... Joshua...
johnmccnj Oh my god, someone finally got the reference!
This is one of the most terrifying and disturbing games I have ever seen.
Lightman: "Is this a game or is it real?"
Joshua: "WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?"
Its so creepy because sometimes you can hear the distant rumbling of bombs landing...
I remember the first time it asked me to launch a nuke at a city, and the population popped up. I froze and thought about it. Felt so real.
5:16
Imagine standing in front of a screen in front of a strategic command center somewhere.
Stunned silence fills the room. Hundreds of personnel in the bunker, all seeing what you see, but nobody says a word.
And then a single voice breaks the silence.
"It's over. It's fucking over."
You bow your head and close your eyes. You feel everyone's eyes lasting upon your back, awaiting your reaction.
"...for all of us" you whisper huskily, while a single tear, silver gleaming and burning for a billion souls, rolls out of your eye...
Defcon 3 is where things pick up. Defcon 1... nothing survives Defcon 1.
Except for 52% of the humans.

This simulation is depressing. Millions of people reduced to nothing but small icons to hit, and their deaths a statistic that determines the highest score.

DEFCON 2 - basically the same as 3, except everyone knows what comes next
damn.
Personally at the end I think instead of saying “Player x won” it should just say “Humanity loses”
The end of the world started when defcon 1 appeared
>africa
>nukes
lets be real here.
South Africa was speculated to have nuclear weapons
Gen. Tullius not speculated they did actually have nuclear weapons...
Not to mention that there's nothing worth wasting nukes on there
I always imagined it would be Russia/US/China/etc having their own weapons stationed there.
Wakanda is da powah!
This game should be remastered to become more atmospheric and highly detailed
The lack of detail I think is what gives it this type of atmosphere. Its already perfect.
well you might consider trying defcon inspired and less dramatic game called ICBM (its fun)
I think a remake with more features putting more emphasis on the original idea would be great!
In another universe this did happen... that’s a scary thought
And awfully depressing.
This universe is next.
*theoretically.
I also find it funny that the USA and Russia had so few launch points. There were 2 right up the street from my house that they filled in with concrete in the 70's. There's thousands.
Almost a decade late, but this is because the game wants to balance all sides
when I was in middle school, the first silo in a string of 10 minute mans was a short bike ride outside town...duck and cover...
my a$$..
I think I'd rather die in the initial exchange than live through the hellish aftermath of a nuclear winter.
This would be a drastic change towards the fishing economy
Cant believe you'd forget the effects on the mobile gaming market
The sad thing?
That woman coughing you can hear?- That's mother earth dying as the war wages on.
4:44 one of the most chilling moments in all of gaming
"Strange game. The only winning move is not to play."
When you stop the video but the warning sound still can be heard
That game over screen gets me. No flashy lights or excited sounds to say you win or loose. It feels like it’s asking you more than telling you that it’s over and you won. Just an Erie silence with the sounds of the final wreckage and ashes burning away in the distance. You may have won the game, but nobody truly won here.
Seeing all those suborbital lines breaks my heart. To think the end of the world could just fall out of the sky...
It’s interesting seeing the arcs of the strikes when there are particularly large launches, knowing that it is (in theory) the final days of humanity.
In this type of game, no one wins.
Everybody dies... I get it now.
literally my class with when there is no teacher 4:53
"Game Over"
Truer words were never written.
It's a strange game, the only winning move is not to play.
I know, War Games was an amazing movie. It was in world history Freshman year that it was introduced to me, to show how high tensions were during the cold war.
