America's Army 2.0 Available for Linux and OS X

Time Doctor writes "Linux and Mac gamers will be happy to hear that America's Army 2.0 is out of private beta, and available via mirrors at 3DGamers and HappyPuppy, among others. See this news post on the AA site for the gameplay changes." We covered the release of the Windows version of AA 2.0 a couple of weeks back, as this free FPS recruiting tool continues toward its goal of "providing civilians with an inside perspective and a virtual role in today's premiere land force, the U.S. Army."

  1. DevKit by Samus · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Is there any kind of devkit or plans for a devkit? One of the things that adds life to a game are the user created levels. I know I wouldn't be playing Ravenshield these days if all I had access to were the stock maps. This extends to other games as well. If this thing is to have a decent life expectancy then there needs to be some kind of dev kit for user mods.

    The army's been starting to switch some things to Linux

    I don't want combat troops that know Linux - their muscles are probably too atrophied to carry an M16.
