    FAQ Americas Army (AA)

    Where to download Americas Army: Operations Recon

    Direct link: http://garnaaldemo.planetinternet.be/ArmyOps_Recon.exe

    What is the offical website of Americas Army

    http://www.americasarmy.com

    Shortly after the launch of AA they put a temporary low bandwith version on-line. This because the game was more popular than they originally expected and... to shorten the download times.

    Hey, I really like you, but I @#%@#$ GameSpy Arcade. What to do?

    1. First of all you can downlaod GamSpy 3D @ http://www.gamespy3d.com/download (direct link: http://gamespy3d.fileplanet.com/Game...r260000STD.exe )

    2. There is also an option to search on IP-numbers within GameSpy Arcade (right mousebutton on a server). Write down the IP number, and open this IP within AA. You can close GameSpy Arcade if you like.
    If you have the IP number, open AA and push on ~. Type in the IP number (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:7777) followed by <enter>. If the server is full you will be noticed by white letters in the middle of the screen. If the server is not full, you will almost immediately see the darkblue text LOADING on your screen.

    3. The is also a possibility to downlaod The All Seeing Eye (http://www.udpsoft.com/eye (direct link: http://www.udpsoft.com/eye/download/...eInstaller.exe (unregistered version))). Officially ASE does not support AA, therefore I wont post the steps to get it working. Still curious how to get it working? http://www.udpsoft.com/forum

    WTF! Every time I want to join a server I get a message that I'm not qualified! What is this?

    The AA team wanted to creae a realistic game, therefore you will have to train as a soldier. First you have to complete Basic Combat Training.

    Allrighty than, I completed Basic Combat Training and now I
    want to do Infantry Training. I have to go online, but.. I can't! Why not?


    Well, to be honest, I can't get online either. The now famous trainingslevel is calles: McKenna MOUT Site. What I understand is that the goal is to stick notes on the so called objective points A(lpha) B(ravo) and C(harlie). You do this to stand in front of the pole and press the USE key for a while. See image



    On the most crazy moments I see 'Watch Your Fire' and the whole thing starts over again. I think that you or one of your teammates is trying to stick a note before the area is secured.
    Some rumours say that if you want to pass this training session you and everyone in your team must have 0 ROE. You can see ROE as faultypoints for team-killing.
    In the official FAQ from AA says very little of this matter, the only thing they say is that the servers are heavily overloaded and therefore never the (winning) stats uploads.
    Other rumours say that you have to complete the training to acces the official AA server (to wipe out cheaters). You probably already heard ablout changing a textfile to pass the training sessions. Most likely this does not do the trick since the game is synchronised with the official AA servers. So people who say they passes the McKenna MOUT Site training ar a) very very very lucky or b) have a really really big thumb

    What to do if my question is not here?

    Well, try and look here first: http://www.americasarmy.com/ops/news/faqtext.php
    Or go to this forum: http://www.americasarmy.com/forum
    Meanwhile there is an IRC channel: irc.homelan.com #americasarmy

    Because of the great intrest in this game you can get some errors while loading the official AA site. Be patient and refersh once in a while, that should do the trick.

          Nice - I'll admit I haven't really gotten into AA, but I've seen it being played and it is nice.

              It's strangely addictive. I didn't want to play it at first, then I slowly got into it and now I play almost all the time. It has a good realistic feel to it and the graphics are great. Sometimes waiting for 2 minutes just to get a single good kill is sweeter than a dozen UT2K3 frags!

                Are there any servers active in Australia? I tried playing on the net, but couldn't find any local ones, and the US ones weren't much good
