Is this worth checking out and the free download?

I dont want to waste my time.

I love modern tactical war games so I figured i'd give it a shot.

Yes, it is quite good, and quite tactical. However, just remember that due to the nature of this game it is not exactly beginner friendly, and to truly enjoy (be good at) it, you must invest a fair amount of time.

Also, you will need a very good computer to make it have good graphics and to make it not laggy. But other than it's fun.

???

I don't think the graphics are necessarily the main focus of this game. It looks good enough, and it's a lot of fun, so that doesn't really matter at all. It also gives you a good look into the military, if that interests you. There's no real propaganda that is trying to convince you to join, but stuff is there if you want to look into it.

It's about as good as Halo, or Doom III...
I've got one of the older versions, cause my computer is such crap...

Peace out cub scouts.

Oh god, never compare AA to CS..... The only thing that's common between the two is that they're both technically FPS's, that's it. Two completely different worlds otherwise. And the fact that you did compare the two causes me not to put much stock in your opinion in your second sentence... If you're looking for a new CS game in AA you're going to find it "boring" for sure.

Anyway, AA is an excellent game IMO, been playing it for a few years now. You do need patience for it though - this isn't a run and gun game. Expect to check around corners, listen for footsteps, actually identify and aim at your target, and take it nice and slow if you want to survive for more than a couple of minutes into the round. This isn't to say that it's not an intense game at the same time, because it is... but you do need to learn the maps before you can accurately judge when to rush and when to take it slow.

i havnt really played it since 2.6, but man, was it a fun game then... and lol to the person who said you need a good computer to run it, at least for 2.6 you didnt (i ran it on intergrated graphics). the main reason i don't really play it any more is the server browser is probably the worst thing i've ever seen/used. also, this game is NOTHING like CS, much more realistic (though that's not necessarily a good thing, saying that im an avid CS player now)

definitely worth the free download though. you never know, you might love it.
