New America's Army Release

by Maarten Goldstein, Aug 01, 2002 2:52pm PDT

A new version of the America's Army Operations game has been released, adding a sniper school level to the game among other things. You can grab the 22mb Marksmanship upgrade if you already have the game installed. If you don't have the Recon version of America's Army, you can download the new version from FileShack as well.

Has anyone tried to really mess around in this game? I'm sure they have made sure to keep the knuckleheads out, but I'm wondering what happens if you do.

Thank god they eased up on getting to the actual test portion in both the rifle and the sniper tests.

The sniper test is only one shot per gun to qualify with no timer but you have to hit.

Aiming high on the long range targets helps.

Sadly I don't see this keeping the rail gun campers away from the guns, the tests are too easy.

Hmm, the rifle range overall seems to be a bit easier, but I still managed to miss the same target the 3 times it popped up, and it wasn't even the furthest one back. Ahh well. The sniper school was fun, easy, and short as hell.. *sigh*
