First Impression's (from a former soldier)

Well America's Army is the closest thing you can get to the real thing with out actually enlisting.
The graphics are sweet and fluid, it uses the new Unreal Warfare engine (Chruser dont believe it tho) and it has all the little details that make the game sweet. For example the M16a2 has jammed a few times when I was playing and to fix the jam you hit 'f' and your guy does the same exact steps to unjam it that they taught us in real life. All the models are exactly how they should look, the sounds too.
The downfall... you have to go threw an offline bootcamp, then upload your result to there servers, after you have qualified offline you do an online training excerise on the MOUT McKenna map...... the servers for that were sooooo damn swamped it took me til 4 am in the morning to finanlly get on a game and qualify.
They said they are adding new servers, but today i havnt been able to connect to a McKenna server yet.
After you have passed McKenna tho you can go onto the real missions, which are quite fun and not as packed as McKenna, but still it took awhile to get on a few of the more popular maps.

Overall this is a great game that actually feels almost like the real thing, and I think that the army should just let us play this game all day long in real bootcamp instead of doing push ups and marching lol.

Give the servers another week to settle down and we will have a great new gaming comnunity.

I beleive that the engine is called "Unreal 2", otherwise, CliffyB messed up really bad when he got interviewed.
