Americas Army home page claims they went over 3 MILLION players  at end of FEB.  As an Avid player I don't doubt it.  Puts things in perspective I think.

Pretty good first person shooter put out by the US Army as a recruiting tool.

Very detailed and realistic. You have to go through offline training before you can go online. Have to score perfect marksmanship to go sniper.

Or youused to, I have not played in some time. The guys that wiggle themselves to not get shot, blew the game for me, it just ruins the spirit of the game to do lamer first person shooter crap like that.


Check it out its a free download, just do a search for Americas Army.

I heard cheaters had ruined it with hacks, anyone know if they fixed it?

Shooting a guy 10 times, then having him turn and pop me once, with my head exploding as the result, ruined it for me. Think if they changed to a system similar to AH it would be much better.

relativly realistic as long as you dont get within 100ft of the other guy...i find there are less cheaters on non official servers (cheaters cheat so they have higher honour levels and therefore bragging rights...i think the honour level thing is a waste for 2 reasons
1. having some ultimate goal in any game brings out the "at all costs" (also bull****) part of us
2. when youve been playing since sept. 2002 and only have 18 honour your half decent...no one expects you to be...therefore you have an advantage)

of those 3 million people less than 2 million actually finished basic training...

I finished basic and medic training, and got halfway through Airborne before my mobo died on me. Interesting game though, I didn't have a fast enough system to play online however.

Where is the dowload link?
It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
