How far in the future? If it's in the near future, wars will be fought pretty much just the way they are now.

As far as you can see it.

In the future, we'd have no more wars. Instead, we'll all play massively multiplayer war games to release our war-like agressions. But it will be all in good fun.

The only thing is that the winners get to go on dates with the women of the losing country.

Why don't they just hook up a giant Battlefield xxxx (put in the year of the war) server and fight the war virtually, then no one will be harmed IRL.

I'd hate that to be the case considering the number of cheaters out there.

War will always be tactically the same. No country will ever accomondate their enemies to fight the same war they want them too. Not unless they want their butts handed to them. You can't computer hack a 3rd world nation.

War in a sense is a contest of determination, wits, and heart of all means nessisary. Not technology.

Some would say that the 'Cold War' was World War III and that we are currently in the middle of WWIV against Islamic Terrorists.
Dumb people, considering there was no actual war There have always been times of tension - that's all the CW was, regardless of what may have happened.
Why don't they just hook up a giant Battlefield xxxx (put in the year of the war) server and fight the war virtually, then no one will be harmed IRL.
And why would a strong nation agree to that? All it does is place a weak little one on even odds with a stronger.

It'll be fought between robots. There will be designated warzones. It'll be more like a sport/game. There will be a field/court and the 2 sides will battle on it. There will be all kinds of rules and regulations. It'll be like dodgeball.

Of course this woudn't happen.

Large, mechanized robots (a la Gundam Wing)

more seriously, though, I think we'll put satelites into orbit around the earth containing large rail guns that will blast the sh!t out of any country we fell like attacking.

"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, scince for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despiceable an ignoreable war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."

Never underestimate the ability of man to find new ways of killing.

Either way the wars would be faught (with robots) people will always die.

by the time it becomes possible touse robots every country will have nukes, basicly making an attack n any country suicide. in the future there will not be war on earth. maybe smal conflicts in space.
