I'm probably biased, but I don't like this idea. I feel like every normal citizen is going to want to be part of this, so there will be no average joes around. Besides, I don't think the devs will allow for things like PMCs or militias like this.

I think there will be plenty of people that don't want to be part of this. I for one want to be a lawyer, and there are quite a few others around here that just want to own businesses and never touch a gun. So there are plenty of average joes to protect/exploit :)

Just to point out, you are the Don of the Mariano crime family. Saying that PMCs and Militias should not be allowed is the same as saying that gangs/organized crime should also not be allowed. When you think about it, they are quite similar, just different activities, and one is more legal than the other.

Not that similar. PMCs are basically armies, and armies have been left out of the game for a reason.

Yet if you look at the structure and organization of both, as well as the methods, training, and weapons used by each, they are in fact similar. I understand about how some PMCs are basically armies, but most are not involved in any active combat situations. The ones that are in active combat situations are almost always under contract to a government(s). The majority of PMCs/Security Consultanting Firms actually only provide security/protection for high profile persons, people who live in less suitable areas, and site/assset protection for companies and private individuals. Also, most PMCs are not legally allowed heavy weaponry without strong governmental oversight, as according to The International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR)

They aren't nearly as similar as you make them out to be, but fair point either way. My concern is that so many people will be drawn to PMCs that there will be very few normal citizens about. The reason why this wouldn't be a concern with the mafia is that PMCs are (mostly) legal, meaning people who don't want to find themselves involved in crime won't have any reason not to participate.

Yeah, I understand that, but most of the PMCs so far are very professional and aren't accepting just anybody, and they appear to have rigorous training/codes of conduct and such. So in the end, I don't think you'll have to worry aout them too too much. I do completely agree on militias though, we don't want another Oregon Militia Standoff occuring. That is where PMCs come in very useful, as they wouldn't need to mess around with all of the governmental approval, they just need a paycheck.

Well as long as they don't just suck up all the average joes then I don't have a problem with them. If they get unrealistically big then that may pose a problem. Either way it's really down to whether or not the devs allow PMCs at all.

Yeah, although I don't see why not. But if they don't, it means more business for you.

It sure does.
I'm gonna guess that you're a PMC guy yourself?

I'm with Aegis, but I've been in a couple before in other games, and it gets quite annoying when people just see us as a bunch of MerryWeather-esque people who just go around blowing up everything.

Which I might add, depending on the game, it might be. *cough* GTA V *cough*
