SQUAD is definitely the new realistic type shooter. Think Americas Army 2 + Arma 3.
Check it out and if you are looking for a unit, check out http://taw.net

Squad is actually most similar to the Project Reality mod for Battlefield 2. It's made by the same people.

Premises look really good...enhancing teamwork over individuals, no chance of whoring for kdr score (its point based), good voip, a medic class that gets actually used...hmmm I might like this game.

It is definitely a very good game. I am hoping that many of the AA2 veterans will get the game and join us in game.
And if you are interested in a clan for SQUAD, check out http://taw.net .Email me at [email protected] with any questions or concerns.

Why not? Performance issues?
The funny thing is that since Squad came out, AAPG has even less players......I am hoping the AA devs will see that, finally wake up and redo AA the way it was before AAPG. Heck even AA3 would be better than AAPG......

Augustine, have you played aapg since the beginning in 2013? It was a quite different game, many things were done in a much more proper way despite the game lacking part of the content it has now. And I think many would happily agree to have less content but more polished rather than a few more maps or a few more features that aren't fully tested throughout (map wise it was the case of Intercept, which had plenty of spots where you can nearly get stuck into, or feature wise with the way securing now works...you can basically drag an incapacitated player, just by spamming the key and moving back).

And since you mentioned AA3, Airfield was another bad example of "more content no matter what" especially after they introduced AI, which was terrible.

Yea, I was in the PG beta.
Problem with Proving Grounds to me is simple. Instead of staying with the AA2 gameplay (even AA3 gameplay), the devs are trying to emulate CoD, GRP and other BF......I am also not talking about content, but about gameplay.....

Its true. And for that matter, it still is an interesting game but not necessarily a game that follows AA2 tradition. But do you remember the map rotation in the early days? The lack of any propaganda video and army trivia stuff?

The game isn't anything like CoD of BF...  Yeah it's a bit faster than AA2 but CoD or BF like? I don't see it.

Yea me neither. The 1st game where i felt the movement was the same than in AA2 when i put the controls to the same order than in AA2.

Anyways, ive been playing ARMA 3 and i like it also quite much. Still not sure what to do with this Squad. i was waiting it so much but still after the 1st opinions of my friends it wasnt that super good that we all expected.

Can i test it somewhere like a  demo version?

I had seen some Good opinions on steam about squad, payed for it 37 euro's but after playing the frist match I was a little disappointed about this game.

Someone played Insurgency?  I have also read some Good opinions about this game how is that game?

It was born as an half life 2 mod, I think the mod is still around if you wanna give it a try, in a rough way you could say it feels in between Counter Strike and America's Army. Its not an heavy game, resource wise.
