America's Army 3 WOW!

Well I am downloading it now...will see if I can get in.


Never played the game before I am curious what is it like? Is it like your typical Battlefield 2 set up?
 
I finally got connected to a game played it for a bit and it was fun. then I got vote kicked for saying "penis spotted!!"

yeah I liked the multiplayer quite a bit, I can only wonder how great it would have been if a real developer did it.
 
I just tried running it, and I got registered and got to the menu, but I'm afraid I might end up enlisting myself in the Army, lol.

rofl :P
 
Well it worked for me on the first try but i'm not impressed, multiplayer is boring... just like the first AA. I much prefer insurgency which is a free hl2 mod.
 
I have been playing (not online) and it is ssoooo fun. You can slide and do commando rolls and everything. You actually need to listen to what the guy is saying when your doing your combat medical test though....

Except I can't get into tier 2 training..."Coming soon" Anyone know what that is?

They plan on releasing more content in the future (laying of some of the lead devs is an interesting way of going about that goal).
 
It was released a couple days ago, i think they were planning on a tf2-esque thing where they release new weapons and such every now and then. (half guess, half thinking i read that somewhere)
 
as far as I know AA is like a commecrial program for the US army or so. Dont think they can get a better commercial than that at least.

yup, the american army made it in the hope that people will go

"my gosh, what a great game, i must join the army because of it!!"
 
isn't it true that players who had high scores in the original AA game (in multiplayer games) got a letter from the US militairy, asking them to sign up?

can't say I have heard of that, but if it is true that is ridiculous, i don't see how being good at a game would mean you are good at doing it in real life, I am about 90% sure it isn't anywhere near what it would be like really there. Yea you can make the weapons and training and dialogue and graphics realistic, but a game isn't like real war or actually going into battle :confused: . But then on the other hand, it is the american army, so you never know :P

Wouldn't be surprised. All through this game, there are posters and such asking you to join the army, challenging you actually. There are links to army websites and descriptions of NCO's and all that.

They tried, that's all that matters.

Great game still.
 
what i want to know is whose idea was the game in the first place.

I mean, who sat down one day and just went "we need more soldiers, any ideas?" and after a couple of minutes of silence someone lets out a sigh and goes "computer game?" . Whos responsibility would that be and why did they think it would work for recruitment, who has the mind that thinks gamers want to do exactly what they are doing in game in real life in every game they play?

I would like powers like on Bioshock, I would like to have a nanosuit like on Crysis and I would defiantly like to do what I have done on COD4 and AA3.
