I've been playing America's Army since 1.0 came out around 7yrs ago. It's definitely on par with full priced retail games, however it's definitely not geared towards the mainstream audience. It's one of the most realistic FPS games out there, it's not going to be easy for people used to arcadish shooters such as CoD4 to jump right into. There are no respawns in this game.......If you're somebody who likes to run off on own Rambo style, you're going to die within the first 2minutes of a round and may have to wait 8 minutes for the round to be finished before you can play again. I highly recommend everybody download it and check it out since it's free....I just know a lot of first time players here will come back screaming "OMFG This game blows!" because they can't manage to kill somebody their first few hours of playing. I've been playing 3.0 for a couple of days now and have been having a blast. The training missions are quiet a bit more challenging, but more fun as well due to the achievement system in place. The graphics are a lot better than the screenshots I've seen, not the best ever but of course this is just UE3 we're talking about. The gameplay is drastically improved over 2.x....I love the feeling of diving behind cover while under fire. Hmm.....think I'll go play some for a bit now :) SuperBeast
Good to see verteran players enjoying this game. I started an account on the 1.0 version, but was never really serious about it. Played on and off but never joined a clan or anything. In 2.3 I came back and had a blast with it for a few years. I was one of the rare ones that enjoyed the 2.7 version, but I still feel that it wasnt needed and the community started to dip after that release. I havent played the 3.0 beta yet but Ive watched videos and have it predloaded on steam already. I honestly cannot wait for this game, looks awesome!!!
