What is ArmA and AA? Which one is America's Army? What is the other one?

What is ArmA and AA? Which one is America's Army? What is the other one?

AA = America's Army

ArmA is a hardcore sim combat compared to any other FPS. America's Army 3 feels kind of bland compared to today's shooter, even back then. If you ask me, AA feels like a blatant advertisement to join the army (sponsored by the US Army).

The other one is MW3, Modern Warfare 3, Call of Duty 7 or 8...I'm not sure.

ArmA 2 is the latest one, it seems. Is it any good?

[Falco152]

It's ok.

It's a shame that it would remembered for most people as a game got popular cause of a zombie mod that barely in alpha state.

There's this new mod out for ArmA 2 called DayZ and it's supposed to be an amazing zombie survival mod using the vast expanses and player counts capable on the ArmA 2 engine. I haven't bought it cause buying ArmA 2 for $30 for a free mod that's still in alpha doesn't make too much sense to me. Still, some of you may give it a shot.

BF3 is really irritating me. I was on a caspian border map about 10 guys at one flag, 5 of them support, yet not one of them would drop ammo. I was all outta ammo too. running around screaming ammo ammo, drop some freaking ammo, even texted it and not a one...

I have the same problem. If I'm playing support I'll drop ammo for you.

Yeah, that's happened to me too a lot. Usually I go on a suicide run to try and pick up someone else's kit.

^ that happens when people play it CoD-style. i always drop ammo and medkit packs whenever our team is attacking/defending an objective, so that my teammates never run out of health/ammo or whenever i see the health or ammo icon on friendly players. in fact, i usually get a lot of points by doing these side jobs, rather than killing 50 enemies per game.
