Last time I played, they just released that map that had AI and your team had to take back that base in the desert.

Wow, I can't belive they brought this game back. I havn't played this since go knows when.

I read up on this a lot and watched all the preview videos. FOr a game being made in the Unreal Engine 3, it still looks like a piece of crap that the original was. You can't promote realistic gameplay so heavily and then skimp on the graphical side. It just doesn't mix. I understand the developers are doing this for free but come on, don't make the same mistakes as before.

Well, they have to make the game playable on lower end hardware.

That doesn't mean you must sacrifice the overall quality of the game to tailor it for mostly a single computer type. Of course, I can see where you're coming from. If somebody has the money to buy good computer hardware and games for it, they most likely won't be playing free to play games. This leaves the other category of gamers, the low-end. Still what attracted me to the game was the realistic form of gameplay but I just could not get past the really crappy graphics and punkbuster kicking me every 5 mins into a game.

A lot realism games of this type like ArmA don't that good graphics either, and they those aren't FTP. I just hope they get the weapon and player models accurate, instead of the crap models I'm use to seeing in some other commercial games.

They're actually very accurate. Fileplanet registered members (free or paying) can download an earlier version of the game to try out. The graphics are certainly better, implementing motion blur and depth of field, along with relatively good textures and animations. The only issue I see right now is the overall glitchiness and LAG the current version available runs on. No joke, I hit ironsights and it takes 1-3 seconds for them to come up. It isn't the game, because it's fine in single player/training. But once you jump online, prepare for a shitstorm of lag. I'd suggest waiting for the release on the 17th.

I never got past the training in the first AA so I never got to play online.

fuck that training shit I wanna kill people
