Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
I recently noticed that they had released version 2.8.2 and re-downloaded the game. Anyone else do the same or is this game dead to TG?

I imagine it's long dead, although I found it to be really fun.

I just downloaded it and had not played in 3yrs. Good killing but no teamwork.

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
That was my hangup on this game. Teamwork for the most part is not required. The maps are small and played enough that the best positions are known. Being part of a clan or team was less about cooperation and more about being taught the fine points of each map. It's just a race to those defined areas. I just don't think the game in dynamic enough to compete with other titles out. You have larger scale and more realistic in ArmA and you get more teamwork in BF2: Project Reality.

I just DL'd 2.8.2, I have never played before. Maybe people don't take it serious due to the fact that its free. I never knew it was a MMOG until I saw it in TS2.

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
it was a great game until they added vehicles, we could fill our TG server every friday night. Plenty of teamwork and fun. I was burned out of it by the time they added the vehicles so its okay i dont play anymore. That patch made things weird and unstable. I really dont see us getting back into it, although it was a great game.
that sounds like a good idea trooper.

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
I'm in the middle of installing the new patch, haven't played in about a year, joined on in 2004 though.
So I don't know yet, it is fun, but lacks team work, although not required.
It is just for recruitment, so heck, as long as it is interesting enough for people to join up lol.I see, I come, I conquer.

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
Not sure... how stable is the game now? After that one big update where they added the AI missions, my game would crash so often, others aswell, just became unplayable. Damn shame too because I really enjoyed AA before that

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
Well for me, after a week testing it out, everything except my sound works fantastic. I think I blew out my headphones, and when things speak its like separated.
But everything for me runs quicker and smotherI see, I come, I conquer.

Check out insurgency fellas, I think you'll find it a nice alternative to what you once played in AA!

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
i played the beta and wasnt a big fan of it, it had a really rough feel to me. like when they first released AA with the vehicles and AI. 2.8.2 is a lot smoother and a lot better in my opinion. im in a laid back realism clan and we compete in TWL, i dont see any other point in playing the game until 3.0 comes out sometime in mid to late 2008.

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
I am considering redownloading it just to give it a try, I have not played AA for 2 or 3 years myself and want to see what the deal is with the "vehicles". Probably need a crapload of training for the "vehicles" now?

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
nope just 1 school to drive then 1 school to use the mounted weapons then you can also do javelin training. but the vehicles are only on Co-Op maps

Re: Newest Patch Enough to Revive Interest?
What always killed this game for me was it was always good after a patch, then the hackers soon hacked it and ran around on servers like locusts.
Funny thing is, you'd think the military would not want their game to be hacked, for obvious reasons.. Hope out milsystems aren't protected by punkbuster =P.
