Terrorist?

i was playing last nite and i realized that the terrorists arent called terrorists anymore, they're called Mercenaries. any particular reason why they did this or was it just in the one map i was in?

The terrorist sent a very harsh letter to Sony & Zipper that they were very offended by the use of their organization in the game & were threatening to sue if it continued, hence the name Mercenaries...

I think it's more politically correct... Maybe parents didn't like their kids calling other kids dirty camping terrorists? ;)

Same thing with the lack of blood.

Yes, no blood + no terrorists = a kinder, gentler socom experience

Still a killer game though.
