According to ex-AA3 developers, the contract studio responsible for the latest America's Army entry was shuttered due to a lack of funds, with future development allegedly moving to an unnamed Alabama-based developer. The newest game in the publicly funded series is experiencing some growing pains, as one can likely glean from the game's official support forums.

Hopefully the new Devs can fix the lag

My advise to you is.. Don't play cause you'll like the idea of AA3 and you'll spend pointless hours trying to have a decent online match only to get fps lag, hang time and disconnections and not saving training.

Its like this on how the game was dev'd
in these steps.

cool (First stage of dev)
NICE! (Second stage on dev)
OH BABY (First view)
WICKED!!!!!!! (beta)
*shoots self* (Final release basicly like the beta..)
 
Thanks for making the game!

you have until 10 AM to clean your desk off.
 
A game with such potential, yet so much failure. Whoever the new developers are, I hope they fix this game up and make it playable. I sill look forward to playing this game as it was meant to be played.
 
They needn't to fix the auth-servers before they fix the huge amount of bugs, and fps lag that has been reported with this game. Sure, fixing the auth-servers helps because people can play but who would want to play a game that has more holes than swiss cheese?
 
"Nice Job .... here take this"
"Oh is this a bonus check?"
"No, a severance check, security will escort you out."
 
I haven't been able to load the training area yet. Heck, i'm lucky if I can actual finish retrieving my personnel jacket.

I hope things get cleared up soon.
 
I wonder if when they mean "let go" they actually mean "death by firing squad" :P


Also, it looks like we are getting a hotfix over the weekend. I'm not sure I believe they got fired, since it says dev team and they aren't saying anything officially. Plus they're rolling out a patch so.

They really messed up AA3 BIG TIME. I was so angry on launch day xD Me and my friend we're there waiting forever for the stupid game to start. First the game wasn't released on time. 2nd, The steam servers were too busy to decrypt the freaking game. And 3rd, after you do the m16 marksmanship training it would freeze and make you do the first one again. The game sucks anyways, I'd rather play warrock or something xD (joke)
 
the graphics sucks the online part doesnt work it doesnt save the training as you go thru tbh this game is a big pile of Stinky trash that needs to be thrown out and started over :)
 
I somehow managed to get through almost all of the training. I got 1:05.13 on the PT test, 40/40 on the marksman qualification, did ok on the two tests after that and got through half of the MOUT and then it decided to reset my personnel jacket...now I cant even do the PT test...so so sad
