Grab Windows 7, a flavor of Linux or a PowerPC Mac.

Obviously the tablet didn't come with Windows 8 so why MUST you use it? How the hell do you plan on playing AA without a keyboard and mouse?

Because windows 7 sucks on tablet, and windows 8 is so Perfect!
i playing with usb mouse & keyboard

And i think that in 6 months windows 8 coming out on notebook and pc. I think it is better to correct the assist and allow all users will have windows 8 to play with Americas Army.

I really want that AA Back!

I pretty sure windows 8 on a tablet runs on an ARM processor and AA is an X86 binary so will not work. In fact all windows apps ever made will not work on windows8 tablet or phone, Good luck microsoft competeing with the already well established Apple IOS and Google Android, They should just stick to making desktop PCs for office use IMO.

The Consumer preview edition (that i've installed on my tablet) of windows 8 is X86. i think i'll never buy an ARM edition because i bouight this tablet for use as Computer and i want install everything that i can install in the normal pc or notebook !

I will try to prepare a test build this week, that will dump some additional exception info. I will ask you then to run it, and provide the results.

Punkbuster has dropped support for AA2 which means no more PB updates, Could be a problem.

PunkBuster is kicking from server, cause of "unknown windows api function"
Johny, it is global pb problem, so it should be fixed soon.

Same thing happen when Windows 7 came out. We need to wait...

No it won't, the punkbuster in aa2 will not be included in any future updates. Look on evenbalance website, aa2 no longer exists.

Linux will be the only way to play aa2.

The best thing about linux is people wont be able to dll inject hacks. Linux does not have dll,s and hackers wont bother to learn hacking a new os for an old game.
