Does anyone play this game? I would but I get some error when I try to install it. Something about not being about to find the Favorites or something. Is it a cool game?

I love that game! I got it yesterday and haven't been able to
stop playing scince! I did Basic, Medical, and Airborne training
and am working on Special Operations training. I played a few
online missions, but I always get killed right off the bat. Is
there any way to respawn or something? All I do is exit the
server and disconnect. My screen name is valoo345 (along with AIM
and e-mail and stuff...)

Yeah. It's worth ordering. It takes 3 hours to
download... I'd pay $50 for it. The graphics are great and
it is very realistic.

OH GOOD LORD.
I am SICK of these topics. YES PEOPLE PLAY IT. Try searching.
I believe someone made a {TF} clan once but it didn't work out.

Well, maybe you shoulda been more clear..
Search for that phrase on the AA forums. It's almost %100 foolproof, plus you're almost guaranteed to find a previous example.
And whoever complained about the shots not killing people.. they reworked the damage levels. Now headshots are instant kill, but arms and torso hits are just damage up to a point. Then they become kills as well.
That's why I like the game, they do major updates fairly often, so AA 2.1 is a totally different game than 1.0.
By the way, they're putting the UT2K4 engine in sometime soon. Hooray!

I had 3 accounts.
1-Deleted ay honor 27
2-Freinds account that I raised and then went on a Teamate killiing spree from honor 25 down to 18
3-Gave honor 18 aco**edited** back to freind, he took it to 20 and I started new account that is at honor 47
Freinds account is at 58 I think and mine has been losing honor points by itself but is not fixed and at honor 47 with 4700 to go.
The Auth server has been raped over and over making it impossible to play, because each 5 minutes it seems the server shuts down, I disconnect, then can't log in, let alone play.
I am tired of this game, but it is still installed.
I play Deathball mod, Carball mod and the game UT2k4 itself.
My name in all 3 is Mobius

I had that problem too. If you want to play it, you need to go to an Army recruiter and ask him for the game. He will give it to you for free.

Although RPK's were take down a noch they still are deadly indoors, I don't know about you but I cant carry 10+ lbs in a tiny room with extreme recoil at every shot.
In this game RPK's are ultimate rusher's weapon, upclose they are unmatched, in real life Paki's dont run around firing this weapon on the go, they are deployed for heavy fire support. In this game their unreaslstic.
Another abusive thing, scopes. In real life only about 5% of the Special Forces place scope on their weapon, because of tunnel vision and zoom at close distances. There should be no target sights, only iron sights and such, so when you get to fighting at close distances scope users get owned.
RPG's give off backblast's right? They kill freindlies and yet your unharmed with a wall behind your back. When the back blast is stopped right behind you it pushes you forward, hurting you badly, and possibly burining you. Granades should explode at all distances, some should be duds, but I hate RPG exploding in my face and the luancher remains unharmed at 7 feet distance.
