been watching this one for a while... but I must say... STUPID DEPLOY CLIENT!

SAW was my favourite tool for the job, especially on Interdiction, great bot blasting fun.
My old clan used to run the Boarder map which was always fun, especially with SF forceclass. Trouble was many of the good maps are lacking players... the usual map suspects being boarder, pipeline, bridge crossing and SF hospital attracted lots of players, but get awfully dull after a while. Also you don't stand a chance when people are using Teamspeak and you're not

One day after release, AA3 was so badly screwed up that the US Army has closed the development studio, fired most of the staff and taken full development to Redstone Arsenal in Huntsville, Alabama.

There is a rumor that the person in charge of the Authentication Servers has been sent to Guantanamo.

Absolutely HORRID!

Seriously I cant even rate it because of hard easily it crashes. And if if it diddn't apparently it is hard as nails to get into multiplayer.

Highbury · 06-19-09, 01:18 AM

Oh it ran fine and never crashed on my PC, it was just net code issues. Lack of Auth server causing this:

Most amusing to fail at 100%

Getting rid of almost the whole dev team and closing the studio on Day 1 seems a bit harsh, but I guess with most games it is about $ which can be made up for the company, AA is all about PR and image, guess the people who paid for the PR didn't like the image.

kiwi_2005 · 06-22-09, 02:15 PM

Yeah i agree. I kept ctd, some maps wouldn't even log me in I see on AA website they have taken note and getting a patch out I read this the day after the DL was available don't know if the patch is out and working cause ive gone back to AAO 2 going to leave AAO3 till its properly fixed!

@ Jumpy don't use the deploy client its total crap for me too DL was running at 22kbps, on AA website you can choose another dL option it directed me to a server where DL speeds were spot on.

Zachstar · 06-22-09, 02:30 PM

Still absolutely horrid. I still cant run training so nogo for me.

06-22-09, 03:06 PM

My processor is too crappy to play it.

kiwi_2005 · 06-26-09, 09:10 PM

Hah! I just found out that this guy who plays in certain map in AAO2 i always play on and is really good i mean REALLY good I knew he wasn't using some aimbot or anything like that i would watch how he plays and I could see no reason to accuse him of cheating he was just a good player - until now that is. This guy who plays as a chick, female name but is acutally a dude you know what i mean heaps of players do it cuase theirs certain players in shooters who will go all weak at the knees if they know your a woman player and tell them their whole life story

. He got to befriend this pro shooter where he told him cause hes the admin of the server what he does is turn on RADAR!!!

hence he can see all enemy players.

Beware next time if you join an aussie server - Bridge Crossing map if you play on this map your know who im talking about.

jumpy · 06-27-09, 11:17 AM

Finally got this DL.
It's a bit clunky, ain't it?

Can't link to my old AA2 account, despite doing it on install. Retrained on weapons etc, it seems to have remembered my old medic training/mout(?) etc

Why is my SAW missing its bipod?! I like the m203 sights, much better, but I can see the coming frag fest with those

Not played online yet; gonna be different, that's for sure.

opinion - Comme ci, comme ça.

ajrimmer42 · 06-27-09, 02:16 PM

just downloaded it and, um, yeah it's buggy as *******. Shame cos it seems like it could be better than the last. Fingers crossed they patch it up soon...

Zachstar · 06-27-09, 09:28 PM

Another patch and what do you know it actually makes one image closer before it crashes!

What a POS! I can hardly believe they screwed up THIS bad.

kiwi_2005 · 06-28-09, 06:32 PM

yeah i haven't even bothered with AAO3 now, its a complete mess crikey they could of at least put it out in a playable form.

stabiz · 06-28-09, 09:02 PM

I think this is strange. This is not a publisher that needs money NOW, and thus release some crappy 0.1 version to keep the wolfs from the door, its the freekin US Army! This is basically supposed to be a way to advertise life in the most high tech army in the world, and they cant get a game right. No wonder they fired the dev team, its a PR Hiroshima. But what about beta testers?

Strange indeed.
