If you play Americas Army, report in here. I'd like to play with some PSU folks.

Name: PV2-Grandis[75thR]
Honor: 23

Unit: A Co. 1/75th Ranger Regiment
Squad: Tango Squad Training Force (A/1/T/1-75th)

Fav Weapon: SOPMOD M4 Carbine, ACOG x4 Zoom Sight, M203A1 Grenade Launcher, M4QD Suppressor.

I'm having a blast. 75th Ranger Regiment also has 4 squads that compete heavily in various divisons of TWL's AA ladders. 4-6 hours of gaming daily for me on AA. It's great.

I sucked hardcore too. I started out, and dropped to 8 honor from ROE. Then i kept playing, and it's arguably the funnest game i've ever played.

Gooch9037 - honor 30.

Squeeks - is it a good outfit? I'm looking to join one but so far haven't found any that I really liked. I usually play an hour or two a night. The game is not easy - but it is phenomenal.

My Mod setup is exactly the same as yours.

I have AA too but never got into it much, i don't know how to get my honor up and I can barely ever get into a server because you have to login and all the AA servers are craptacular.

Glaynor. It is a highly realistic outfit, not like any other outfit. We probably have more rules then the real army, but check us out.

Unit: Ahriman corps. Been asked to join MEDUSA, 812th ro and 75th ranger declined all invites because I'm a one clan man! :brow:
Squad: The Only one there is *cries* I'm the ambassador of AC in AA

Does AA have bots? I always suck at realistic FPS games like Counterstrike, so I would wana play offline first.

Dharkbayne
2004-01-07, 12:26 PM
No. And this game is a helluva lot more realistic than CS.

Squick
2004-01-07, 12:36 PM
Just one more question... How much downtime is there. As in, if you are like me and get killed within two seconds of the start of a round; do I have to wait for ten minutes like in CS? Or is there a delay, then you can respawn?

Squeeky
2004-01-07, 12:41 PM
Rounds can run anywhere from 2-10 minutes. Depends on the map and the players, i once played a 60 minute match (match is 7 rounds) because each time it took atleast 8-9 minutes.

No unit, looking, but wouldn't be able to play reliably.
8 honor :(
Favorate Weapon: SAW, RPK, RPGs when the situation calls for it, or M16.
Favorate Map: Bridge (Not SE, that version sucks ass), CSAR, Weapons Cache when the situation calls for it.

Has anyone tried Sandstorm? Is it any good? :confused:

I run it on "Ultralow" graphic settings and i get around 15-30 FPS. It takes a good rig to run smoothly, still one hell of a fun game.

I run it on ultra high and get about the same fps... But sometimes I have frame rate problems cause of the lag :ugh:.

I'm looking for an outfit too, I'm pretty damn good at recon and nighttime assaults. Once I complete Adv Markmanship I'll be uber leet.

Squick
2004-01-08, 01:58 PM
I downloaded it and ran through most of the training, the medic one was hella boring, expecially when I went to the bathroom during the control bleeding and answered two of the questions wrong then failed :)

Also the stealth op one is driving me insane... Crawling around a city-sized area on your belly sucks.

I am guessing I need to finish that to do the advanced marksman training, right? The last spec ops and the two advanced marksman trainings are the last ones I have not done.

You must hit 38/40 targets on your basic qualifying test to qualify for adv marksman school. Goodluck with that :lol:

Oh dear god...

Were you able to do this? It seems that even in zoomed mode while standing it seems almost random whether it hits or not.

What does passing adv marksman give you? I have not played online yet, so I don't know what the training gives you.

Bleh! I deleted this game. Its more waiting than playing. Plus its not friendly to new players. All the servers now are pretty much for Special Ops. People who haven't reached that level yet are gonna have a hard time finding a server to play on.

Squick
2004-01-08, 05:27 PM
Wow, I spoke way too soon... Only took me three more tries to get the 36... I also didn't realize breathing in artifically detracts from your accuracy, thats where the randomness was coming from :)

M82 50 cal rifle is now officially my favorite weapon ;)

Special forces training is a pain in the ass, have to listen to 8 guys tell what they do in 2 languages, then take a boring class on weapons recognition that took about 45 minutes, I alt-tabbed it because I thought I could get everything right anyway. you can tell this is authentic when it asks:

Is the main rotor of a UH-60 Black Hawk co-axil or quad bladed?


scored a 60. w00t!

I was scared shitless that I would fail that stupid test and have to listen to eight guys read a laundry list of things they do! But I somehow passed with a 73!

More waiting than playing? Don't die so quick.

Alot of games aren't noobie friendly, don't giveup on a game because of a learning curve.

You don't have to be SF Qualified to play on SF Maps. You can grab an IF slot and play with an AK74. That's what i did until i was high enough honor to play with an SF weapon.

If you have a hard time finding a server to play on, take your filter off SF Pipeline :rofl:.

I have a question... I was gona try online last night, so I clicked Deployment, then refresh, and it just sat there at "Connecting to Andromeda..." I messed with my firewall to make sure that was not causing the problem, and it is not.

Any clue what causes that?
