After a long time of not playing the game, I finally decided to update it and so far it hasn't come up with a problem.

If we are both on steam at the same time, give me a shout and I will help you.

You aren't actually meant (or need) to do the training missions right now, just go straight to multiplayer.

Ok a couple days ago there was a mass patch (3.0.6) and it fixed soooo much.
1.24 gigs, they also added some stuff for admins and such.

D/L NOW! (from steam or the aa3 website).

Tell me about it... I didn't play any Steam game for a day and a half just because it was updating at 40 kb/s. And seeing how I have no idea how to portforward, it felt like an eternity. But truthfully, it was worth the wait

It's clear from the start, just turn your dam screen brightness up, or look at the dam HUD!:p

It defiently was not clear from the start and still isn't. The only way to really tell is to play for a while. Generally enemies don't have helmets and they have a funny backpack with an antenna on it. Otherwise you'd never know that it's not supposed to be like an SF guy or something.

But if you just look at the HUD it's obvious, plus they have a darker uniform than your team.

I wish games would just show a red dot on top of their head :)

But that makes it too easy. Remember AA3 was created by the American Army to try and produce as close to real life combat simulator to try and recruit people, and in real life people don't have dot's above their head.

If that's the reason they made it then they should get me a FREE Alienware so I can see how "real the combat is". LOL I'm just kidding but it would be cool if they did give out Alienwares. :cool:

Y ea ok... how is giving away Alienware computers going to be good for recruitment? It would send them into even more debt.

Alright patch 3.0.7. was released today. It is awesome, basically all lag is gone and I have not ran into one bug!
This game is pure win now, you now have to do all the BCT, but I love it!
Everyone should get it, it's free!

IMHO Americas army 2 was the best in the series. i was a diehard fan of AA 2 and it was extremely streamline, realistic, while still being smooth and fun. This AA3 is VERY buggy but has potential. I still wish they kept AA2 and expanded on it not redo the engine.

Are there any subliminal messages during the game?

I miss this game. I kicked so much ass on the xbox version....Rise of a Soldier I think. It was very different though.

I might jump back into this once I fix my laptop but as I remember the learning curve was worse than the Quake games...I could never stay alive on the bridge level :(
