Free FPS

btw, americas army was just patched today to 2.6 - you might want to check it out again

Seconded, I haven't had time to play it yet but I hear 2 new maps are added to the already varied selection of maps.

I say give it a go, even if you'd have to start at honor 10.

I was away from America's Army for about a year then recently came back to it a bit. I had to do a fresh full install because I had version 2.2 or something like that and there was no patch for my version.

Thankfully, I was able to keep my account with all of it's previously-earned honor points still intact.

As to the question of this thread: free FPS's don't grow on trees, ya know.

Wolf: ET and America's Army are the best ones. I personally can't stand the fake German accents in ET so that's why I don't play it any more. It's a good game except for the incredibly obnoxious fake accents and lack of maps. Although it's nothing at all like America's Army. ET is like an arcade game.

I went back to AA and got my old account back.

I decided to try and get sharpshooter status and do the basic marksmanship training again so I could go and do the sniper training, but it wouldn't update the thing because of a connection problem, and now I can't do it again....

Have no idea what is causing your connection problems while trying to gain marksman status, that just doesn't make sense.

Once you do manage to get it, look out for a Dutch_guy on SF hospital , what is your ingame name ?

My return to AA hasn't been pleasant.

I have achieved expert status 5 times on the basic marksmanship course, but every time there has been an error saving. However, when I only achieve sharpshooter, it saves the results fine. I am beginning to feel that the game doesnt want me to become a sniper.

I am also having trouble with punkbuster. Everytime I join a punkbuster server, I am kicked almost immediately. It also tells me that I am being kicked for "an unidentified reason" which is totally retarded because it doesn't tell me what's wrong and I can't fix the problem.
I can suspect that I'm being kicked because I "violate" the rules. My graphics card is very poor, so weather effects (fog etc.) don't always show up in games.

So, at the moment, I'm just getting my game back in some non-punkbuster servers.

I did. It didn't help me much, but yeah I'm pretty sure the problem is with the graphics.

I'll try lowering all the settings, and see if that helps me out. Most are on low already, but I believe some are still on normal.
