actually they forgot to mention that microsoft have been using this for years. the ink blot results, no matter how different the images tend to be, always end up being "password".
obviously you are new to gaming since "strafe jumping" is actually called "bunny hopping". also you cannot fire while jumping. you can fire while strafing back and forth. i assume that you started today, you probably havent played many of the maps and maybe still in the MILES (laser tag) maps like MOUT and Tunnels. Those maps are intro maps you will see how the game can excel when you are on a large outdoor map like Radio Tower or a FPS killer map like Bridge.
When AA was first released, I thought of it as Counter Strike 2 with all the cheats removed which is one of the reasons I stopped playing CS. But I discovered that AA was team orientated. If you can find your nitch on a squad, you can really dominate.
Some things that you missed that I think should be noted: - you can shoot through doors now and bullets can ricochett and kill you - TK (that is "team killing) is a huge no-no - You will need to learn the Rules of Engagement (ROE) which have a negative effect on gaining honor. - You get bonus honor for being squad and fire team leaders. - You need to know your CEM (Combat Effectiveness Meter), the higher it is, the more accurate your shot is. - To forgive ppl, when you are TKed accidently. Apologize when you TK someone. - There's many different qualifications such as Airborne School, Sniper School, Mtn Range division, etc... by passing those schools, new maps open to you. - The higher your honor the better your chances are of getting the weapon you requested. - Game weapons (depending on map and team size): M16, Saw, m16 w/ 203 grenade launcher, regular sniper rifle,.50 caliber sniper rifle, m4 with laser sight,grenades, flash bangs, smoke nades plus the enemies counter weapons.
Coming in AA 1.9, two new classes: Medic and Special Forces. I am looking forward to becoming a medic (although its not like a true medic, but a combat medic with a gun -- read americasarmy.com). Rumors are that you need to have a 35+ honor to be a medic and 50+ for Special Forces.
I've logged 70+ hours into this game, playing for a few days then stopping for a week or so (depending on work and life duties). So I feel qualifed to review the game.
overall for a free game, its pretty damn good. the FPS are quite good if you have a good video card. a gf3 is okay. i dont think my 600mhz iBook with its ATI 16mb video card could handle it, but maybe it will be okay as a dedicated server.
a quote from the post... " Ok I was gettin like 23 fps on bridge SE, and i new i could do better. I have a radeon 9200 128mb. So a Dev told me that i could tweak the Cache size in the armyops.ini file and it would help alot. The default is 32. If you haev a 128 mb card set it to 128 mbs, 64 card =64 cache. I went from 23 fps to 60! "
i have an ati 9000 128 pro...i made the changes and it didnt seem to do much. i had my friend make changes to and he has a gf4 ti 4200 128 and he didnt notice any changes.
You can track you all sorts of stats with the game. I love using it to track how many points I need to gain honor and seeing my frag rate. I didnt discover this online tool for almost a few months. If you are curious, you can see mine...My AA stats. Another cool feature is the signature file which is like a banner ad of your stats.
I can wait til I turn my 600mhz iBook into a server!
I dont use my PS2 besides playing games however I'd find it more useful with the added DVD formats and of course mp3 or whatever music format you prefer.
HOWEVER, I wouldn't think this added feature would make me go out and get a new PS2 or convince anyone else to go out and buy a PS2 who hasn't had one already.
You read the orginal story on Google News, then you see the story is posted on Slashdot w/ adiscussion. A few minutes later on Google News, you see the same story with a link to Slashdot...its like meta news reporting.

Earlier this year, I chose Verizon and here's what lead me to convert from Sprint.
1. SprintPCS at the time didn't have coverage where my parents live so I would ROAM. ROAMing is one thing that you don't want. ROAMing is premimum and it would cost me like $.25 just to talk for a minute. (check coverage area)
2. I wanted WAP and SMS. ATT has SMS but not WAP. SprintPCS was already eliminted because they didn't have coverage. (check phone func.)
3. I wanted free long distance. ATT and Verizon non-peak minutes start at 9pm so I have to wait til then to make a majority of my calls. SprintPCS allowed me to make calls at non-peak calls at 8pm. (check rates)
4. Lastly, I wanted a cool phone at the time the Motorola v60 was a kick ass phone. It was smaller than my other phone and supported SMS and WAP. (check phone)
I never considered the other providers like Nextel.

i think they got caught when they tried to sell the PS2s with a quantity of 17000.
i figure i have 3000 minutes (nights and weekends) and three way calling....
sadly, i have to wear my cell phone ear piece under my headphones (which cover my entire ear) but it works...
also DO NOT LET ANYONE see you in this setup. its quite embarassing.

If you want real collision damage, I suggest Auto Crossing for the real thing.
I think the point is not to recreate Counter Strike in real life but recreate a popular map.

Why restrict yourself? Isn't the saying "the world is your oystyer?"
Every where and anywhere is your computer room, including outside! shun the fact that a geek would want to go outside.
