you can play this game even when authorization is down.

but you will get no honors for playing it and all players will have 15 honors. do not care about, this is only for the moment. you will have your honors back when auth will get up again

first look for all servers flaged with something like no auth needed, or Login or.. in its server names.

then go and find the Folder where your aa25assist is installed:
QUESTION: Where the hell can i find the ArmyOps.exe?

 ANSWER MAC-OSX: /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/25Assist/
 ANSWER LINUX: /home/USERNAME/25Assist/
 ANSWER WINDOWS XP: C:\Documents and settings\USERNAME\Application Data\25Assist\
 ANSWER WINDOWS VISTA/7: C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\25Assist\

it is a hidden folder, so go to your windows explorer and change the settings so that you can see hidden folder also.

then go to the 25Assist  \System folder and start (double klick) the ArmyOps.exe

if done, you will see the main menu of America's Army 2. here you have to open the console - but you will have no Botton to select so. just press ~ or ! or the key located to open the console.

you will see the console prompt like  >
now start the game with the address of the related server, like:

> open 178.196.49.30:5716

you can join for sure now:

178.196.49.30:1716 - SF Extraction
178.196.49.30:8816 - Pipeline
178.196.49.30:7716 - Urban Assault
178.196.49.30:5716 - Hospital
178.196.49.30:4716 - Bridge Crossing SE

i hope that auth system will go up soon again. until then and for the ones which can not stay without aa2, maybe this is a way to play still the game.

Merlin performed magic again. 3 servers out of one hat 

Let's see who's addicted enough to do this.

it is on again. enjoy with honors
