America's Army game

I must admit, I am highly interested in this game, though other games and "ethical" considerations have somehow kept me from ever trying it. But I guess, I can simply skip the "torture civilian prisoners" missions, huh?

Gotta try it.

The real life version or the computer simulation? I've not tried either one.

I thought if I write "game" in the topic title that would not have been a question ...

I've been playing this game since it came out. Awesome Game. This is what actually took my attention away from D3. I dont Play it as much anymore as i did. But i hear they have a New Version or Patch out with new vehicles and stuff in it. The Game is a Very large file but well worth the time to Download. Plus its Free . Yes Free.
You can get it at www.americasarmy.com

Its a very good game and lots of fun. Im just getting back into it now that I got more time in the summer.

In the Torcher The Civilians missions, its not all what its cracked out to be, but its still good.

yah just give them a day or so. the 2.1 patch got leaked out on a website before they planned to released it, so they were forced to release it early, before all testing was finished with it.

I've been playing since version 1.2... awsome game!! It's the only ground pounder worth playing, and with each patch, they add new features to improve the realstic gameplay.

And I bet the Secret Service are very distressed about the obvious breach in security...

actually the SS Has nothing to do with it. USArmy created the game, and funds its operation.

the DEV's and testors were seriously pissed and have announced they are closing in on the numbnut who hosted the patch application. they have no idea how he got it, all testors and DEV's were on NDA restrictions

I got it the other day (5 hour download on ADSL)and was just now able to log in.

I'll be known as TheOleMan if I ever get through basic training.

For Ace's benefit:

Wikipedia wrote:A joke is a short story or short series of words spoken or communicated with the intent of being laughed at or found humorous by the listener or reader.

Laughter, the intended human reaction to jokes, is healthy, uses the stomach muscles, and releases endorphins, natural happiness-inducing chemicals, into the bloodstream. Daily laughter is recommended to every human being.

Of course, he may not qualify as hominidae in the first place...

I've been playing since 1.3. I have 3 accounts:

Fezzik
Efilnikufesin
B.S. Preston-Esquire

Lately, I've been playing as Fezzik.

I mostly play Hospital, typically on the Elite servers (not that I'm 1337, but I prefer playing against those who are). Some other maps I play on a regular basis: Sandstorm, Mountain Pass SE, and Pipeline.

I can't download it because I won't have flash installed on my game box (@#%ing commercials, that's why).

Does anyone have a direct download link?

Guantanamo != Abu Ghraib

it doesnt require flash AFAIK

Testiculese · Post by **Testiculese** » Thu Jun 10, 2004 3:48 pm

The site requires flash to navigate, so I cannot find the link to download.

i will get you one with premium privilages. give me some time till later this evening. i will PM or Email you with the details

AAO is a pretty cool game. I think the last patch has made some of the SF maps a little buggy though.

My AAO name is [RIP]CplusX2. That game chews up my Radeon 9700 and spits it out, heheh.

Kinda strange, my Radeon 9700, 2 GHz Barton 2800+, 1 GB PC2700 and Asus A7N8X-E has absolutely zero problems with it. Could it be your CPU or something else is bottlenecking you?

HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM.....

i cant get the PW for the premium account to download the game with uncapped speed.

a standard download place that is reliable is here:

you will need to make a username and all that other BS

the only aviation the army flies, is logistics and helo's and UAV's

Top Gun · Post by **Top Gun** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 2:58 pm

It would be pretty cool if the Army released a game allowing you to fly those unmanned Predator drones. Locate Al-Qaeda car, press button...BOOM, problem solved

. Flying one of those is a job I wouldn't mind having if I was to go into the military; it's finally a chance to put those gaming skills to use

.

AceCombat · Post by **AceCombat** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 4:07 pm

to be truely honest, all you really need to know how to do is navigate from a console that uses controls very very very similar to CH Flight Stick products. bubba knows which ones im talking about. that and know how to monitor system guages and warning lights.

OH!! BTW: Sage...you have mail

Sage · Post by **Sage** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 5:30 pm

Yeas! I have completed the SF training thanks to your help Ace! oh thank! oh god thank you thank you!!!

but i wanted to go back in that SF E & E with my M82 .50cal sniper and shoot all them guards (for revenge heheheh

) but when I shoot em it crashes... oh well, I can always shoot them nurses up! hrhrhrh

AceCombat · Post by **AceCombat** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 6:10 pm

yah for some reason it crashes when ya shoot the SF "opfor" guys, ive asked the DEV's if this can be fixed.

anyways.......hey D3 community......

www.forums.americasarmy.com

you might want to check the hysteria going on, i swear the Authentication Server Down issue is becoming worse than me posting absolute BS on this forum, in the last 2 days 80% of the topics being posted are focused on that one and only issue. its totaly rediculous.

right about now, 80% of the AA:O Community is probably comitting suicide or tossing computers into the trash because the only life force they have is attached to that game, and since it cant be played currently due to a server problem with authenticating player names and stats........well they have concluded that the entire world is collapsing around them, they forever doomed now.

ROTFLMAO!!!! GET A F**KING LIFE.......dumb f**ks

Nightmare USA · Post by **Nightmare USA** » Fri Jun 11, 2004 6:48 pm

Wolf on Air, that sounds like a nice system! Mine is not a bad one so I just donâ??t get it.

I have a Dual 1.53 Ghz AMD machine, Asus motherboard A7M266-D, 512 megs PC2100 Ram, ATI Radeon 9700.

I never get higher than 60 fps in descent and only around 18-32 in AA. I probably have a bottle neck somewhere, but I do not know where. Oh well.
