Fun facts about Nuclear explosions from 1945-98: America has launched 1032 nukes Russia has launched 715 France has launched 210 China has launched 45 Britain has launched the same amount. I thinks its India thats launched 4 And I think that Pakistan has launched 2 France has launched more nukes than China, UK, India and Pakistan. Most of America's launches were in their own country. Some of Russia's have touched Eastern Europe and Finland. Some of Frances test have been in Africa whilst most were in the south pacific ocean. Britains were in Australia and in America as well. As an act of open agression USA is the only one to have launched nukes at another country. There has been a grand total of 2053 nukes launched since 1945 to 1998. These are offical statistics. I have not included any rumors such as korea or other Pakistani nukes or the north africa's nukes either.
DEFCON is a military code starting from 5 and decreasing as the situation at hand reaches closer and closer to nuclear war. The closest we've ever been in the U.S. was DEFCON 2, as in the Cuban Missile Crisis I think.
5 is 'nominal peace' iirc. Defcon 4 is heightened alert, 3 is when the Defcon level is on active warfare, Defcon 2 is on Nuclear Preparedness, Defcon 1 is fullscale thermonuclear warfare.
"I'm playing a peaceful nation...oh wait, I'm America." Oy! We're peaceful ...unless you've got oil, so we have to take it ...or if you don't have oil, so there's no reason to be your friend ...or if you control some movement of oil, so we can call you a threat ...or if you've seen oil once, so we have to get the information out of you. Other than that, though, we're a pretty chill bunch.
@@Drazoron Are you alive? anyways its a reference to war games when the computer in charge of Americas Nukes try's to attack Russia because of a perceived threat, to teach the computer they challenge it to a game of tic tac toe and after showing it that there cant always be a winner they make it play against itself and every move it makes is countered to stop itself from winning so nobody wins. It then applies this knowledge to nuclear war and realizes that no matter what strategy it uses it can decisively beat Russia or any other country in a nuclear war its just both sides countering each other and nobody truly wins. After it realizes this it stops trying to fire the nukes and if I remember correct it says to the characters "How About A Nice Game Of Chess?"
I love that movie! It had young Matthew Broderick in it. And Joshua, the government supercomputer: "Wouldn't you like to play a nice game of chess?" It was like a quasi-modern version of Dr. Strangelove, which is also a fantastic thermonuclear war movie.
4:38 I dont really hope this happens but I just imagined me sitting in class while seeing missiles firing going to europe then We hear like a cartoony kind of whistle and you just see a massive missile crash through the roof onto the teacher and all of us in class are here like "uhh what just happened?" and then theres like a sword stuck in the missile and someone touches it and it just goes from saying (DISARMED) to beeping twice then saying (ARMED) and then just a flash of It detonating in the city, and sips just sitting in the capitol with the most retarted face and pressing a button that says (NUKE THE EU) and just spamming the button and getting frustrated... if you imagine really hard, its quite funny.

What a terrible chain of hatred! Rythian is fantastic! He's clever and funny, and he absolutely idolizes Sips. Sips is amazing, the real guy, the best guy! The whole Yogscast is a fantastic group of people, so stop fighting over who is better, Sips or Rythian!
People think highly of Sips because he is a new-age artist! He's the real guy, the best guy! (Not to mention, we all have dark, sadistic streaks, or else we wouldn't want to watch this video, or want more videos like it.)
@purplesnos I think they're just taking about playing it period, I don't think they ever recorded it, I've seen pretty much every video on their channels and I've never came across this game.
I used to play this game all the time when it first came out. Had some great times. One thing I noticed was everyone in the video was using 6 ships in each group when its much more useful to use only 3.
Firstly, I approve of his US joke. It was amusing. Secondly, his commentary was equally amusing. Thirdly, I agree with your view on the US, as idealistic as it may be.
well than maybe he hates sips home country ps. thank you for not being a jerk about it like most people on RUclips it shows that there still is good people here
He's the real guy, the best guy, and yes, I enjoyed his Dishonored series, although, I completely concurred with his decision to go for nonlethal takedowns in the Corvo plotline.
no, all countries that have enough money, have nukes. they may not want to use it on an offensive but they will use it on defensive. Britain came up with something called M.A.D forgot what it meant but its basically using a nuke, to destroy an incoming nuke. it would be used when all other countermeasures fail and yes casualties are certain, but it does reduce the overall damage. it is THE final resort with these sort of things.
It's so much more sad and grim just seeing 10 million lives extinguished in a flash than actually seeing it happen. Playing it to win is futile but you play to make sure you're the one who loses the least.
My defcon has a bug with the text, it says dialog and has underscores for example the title should say (DEFCON) bit mine says (DIALOG_LOBBY_DECON) in eveverything! it make the game unplayable :( what do I do?

When they said "Defcon 2 is coming up" I thought they were talking about a second game.

What happens if it disarms itself and still lands in the roof of a primary school?
Freaking genius...

whats that supposed to mean?
It means Ben is a jealous person, and you are courageous. Simplicity.
Thank you, and when ONCE have I mentioned "look up my channel"?
MasterMitch Gaming ^ just here you did.
"I'm a peaceful nation... well I I'm the United States" haha ouch, my patriotism!
They need to play more of this
Notice at the end it says 'sips plays skyrim' and it shows a clip of defcon part 2
lol
So nostalgic watching in 2015

Rythian: "im a peacful Nation! WELL, actually, I am america..."
Too true
Wait, this game has missile defenses?????
+Mwahaha105 lol
KarstenOkk What? It's only missing long range defenses.
Mwahaha105 Missile defense is like a core structure of this game.
I'll be getting it for my gaming channel.
silos don't just shoot nukes, they shoot down nukes!
I just noticed the awesome titles
I love that movie! It had young Matthew Broderick in it. And Joshua, the government supercomputer: "Wouldn't you like to play a nice game of chess?" It was like a quasi-modern version of Dr. Strangelove, which is also a fantastic thermonuclear war movie.
I'm offended. Finland isn't on the map.
thats because finland is a nice country and nobody would nuke them. im not from finland, my country would get nuked :D
StupidGamer Don't tell the space cops.
The Holy MOTHER Basically Paradox games.
StupidGamer do you remember finland having nuclear weaponry or carriers? or missile silos?
Oskari Mutanen Yeah, i have a couple in my sauna. *cough*
Love that episode of sips playing skyrim at the end

Collin Hanlin sword in a missle....have you been watching piemation
6:12 "I'm a peaceful nation! ... Well the United States..." God damn Rythian your hilarious.
Whats wrong in having Bucharest on the map?
I love how Sips laughs as he he says "13.2 million dead!" It fits the real guy, the best guy, to be slightly sadistic.
Fuck I feel old watching this video again
Lucas smith you feel old for a thing that happened 3 years ago?
i think the beautiful thing with the yogscast is that, there is a youtuber for everyone, for me it will allways be sips :D
its an old game but now I want it
Joaquim Ayrton Gancia you can get the demo on steam which is pretty much the same as the full game
James Hansen yeah but no multi and diff gamemodes?
It's meant to seeing as it is NUCLEAR war
You guys are awesome!
And should totally do at least a few more of these.
10:26 sounded soo wrong....
"I didn't mean to it... just came out" :3
Elliott Roberts Salty.
im liking the group stuff that sips has been putting out. keep it coming
The placement is atrocious I have to cover my eyes in defcon 5 and 4
As soon as Sjin says that he's had a bit of practice 3 minutes ago, Sips suggests that there should be a alliance between them.
fuck this is old
This is such a grim and depressing game and the juxtaposition of 5 dudes laughing and the ending music is so jarring, but incredibly entertaining!

I love the way it goes from a dramatic '13.2 million dead... that's right sjin, that's right' to sip's cheerful outro music
I love this ! please carry on the series !
The outro music makes it infinitely more awesome
Love the juxtapostion of nuclear war and happy chiptune outro
Exactly. The only people that fight about it are people who are trying to entice division in a great community. Each of the Yogscast members is great.
MORE PLEASE!
YESS! I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED SIPS TO PLAY THIS!!!!!
DEFCON is a beautiful, glowing, gentle game about throwing candy at your friends with love. Don't believe the hype.
lol that happy chip tune music at the end.
What a terrible chain of hatred! Rythian is fantastic! He's clever and funny, and he absolutely idolizes Sips. Sips is amazing, the real guy, the best guy! The whole Yogscast is a fantastic group of people, so stop fighting over who is better, Sips or Rythian!
i just get so happy by hearing sips's outro ^_^
love the happy sips music at the end :P
People think highly of Sips because he is a new-age artist! He's the real guy, the best guy! (Not to mention, we all have dark, sadistic streaks, or else we wouldn't want to watch this video, or want more videos like it.)
I don't know what you're talking about, I was laughing pretty much throughout the entire video.
Rythian seemed to have lost his mind when he trusted Duncan there, he had no guarantee that he wasn't about to be bombed to dust.
This game is still fun and it's funny how it has a mode designed to be played while your supposed to be working
I love how there's nukes going off and millions are dying. The sips' nice music plays...

''You said it Bruce''
''Ya fancy a game of volleyball mate ''
@purplesnos I think they're just taking about playing it period, I don't think they ever recorded it, I've seen pretty much every video on their channels and I've never came across this game.

The outro music really fits perfectly
Seeing how quickly these games go, I was surprised to see a break?
You really dancehall when they spread their silos out and group fleets in sixes.
This is great, more of this please, Sips! I think multiplayer Darwinia could be a lot of fun too.
That 'Sips plays Skyrim' end slate is fucking top tier.
i knew he wasnt part of the yogscast just sayin' that he is my fav youtuber he didnt ask who was you favorite yogscast youtuber
This game must be the ultimate stress reliever
This is what the world would end up like if the yogscast controlled it during the cold war. This is actually what it is like in another dimension!
Firstly, I approve of his US joke. It was amusing. Secondly, his commentary was equally amusing. Thirdly, I agree with your view on the US, as idealistic as it may be.
at 4:50, " What would happen if it disarmed itself, but still crashed." "It would probably hurt and disrupt english class"
this music is huantingly beautiful
I love how uncomfortably chipper the music at the end is after the horror of nuclear war
18:15
I didn't realize Skyrim had introduced nuclear warfare. Did that come out in a DLC, or what?
well than maybe he hates sips home country
ps. thank you for not being a jerk about it like most people on RUclips it shows that there still is good people here
A depressing war... Followed by the greatest outro tune ever!!!!! :D
the moment the video ends and gose from the defcon music to his outtro
fantastic, you get a serious game like this and then end it with that outro music
"After us, silence."

Awesome game! Hope to see more of this :)
I love how it says "Sips Plays Skyrim" but its Defcon lol
i love how after all that fighting the exit music. XD
the music in the background is like something you hear as he worlds burns
I just stared laughing when I saw "Sips Plays Skyrim" at the end of the video.
holycrap havent played defcon since school, this will be awesome.
i like how it says sips plays skyrim and it shows the defcon game
no, all countries that have enough money, have nukes. they may not want to use it on an offensive but they will use it on defensive.

I live in SoCal and Sips might just be right, if nukes go off this'll be.one of the first places to go
So, psychologists studied players and new players and it changes peoples views on war , they all hated it after playing this. I love this game.
Didn't you hear Sips? it's called "Defcon, everyone dies" the title totally sells it.
It's so much more sad and grim just seeing 10 million lives extinguished in a flash than actually seeing it happen. Playing it to win is futile but you play to make sure you're the one who loses the least.
sips-"like seconds before a nuke hits london, duncan laughs ...
lol the ending "Sips plays Skyrim" but Defcon in backround.
Thank you, my friend. You clearly have your wits about you.
My defcon has a bug with the text, it says dialog and has underscores for example the title should say (DEFCON) bit mine says (DIALOG_LOBBY_DECON) in eveverything! it make the game unplayable :( what do I do?
Yeah, but if i might add, most of the important/major cities are in the western part.
Not to mention it said "Sips Plays Skyrim" to a background clip of nukes falling like rain.
I am loving this boon of strategy game content :D.
