Hey AA-Fans!
What i've seen in-game on 2.5 version the U.S Army soldiers is using the old camo, like the woodland and desert camo. Like you all guys know: the U.S army is using right now a new kind of camo called DIGITAL CAMO. Do you guys to vote on the poll? Maybe we can change the camo then in-game.
Hooah!
*EDIT* -Spanky
Quick and dirty, here's what the difference is in real life. Someone else feel free to find in-game images.
Digital:

There is already a topic on this. You made it....
-
yeah but without poll.. so right now there is a poll included. :)
-
I voted digital, even though it's more work. I'll make a news post on this so people can come here and vote.
-

I told him to make a poll.
BTW Junk, put images or screenshots in the first post with example of original camo, and digi camo. It's easier for people to look at a picture than to think :D
-
The last few versions of AA2 had digital camo if I'm not mistaken. Looked pretty dope, I would be all for it if the devs felt up to it.
-
I am really against changing anything core to the game in terms of skins. If I wanted to play with digital camo I would go to 2.8.5.
no you would'nt, its fucking dead.

I don't know how to add picture's to my post. btw spanky edited my post and added some picture's about the digital camo and the woodland camo.
-
Truth to be told, i like the "old" woodland/forest camo more than the digi one. On a second thought, there are many more camos available in this version than the woodland camo anyway (e.g. arctic).
P.s. i just noticed you wrote Woodland/desert in the poll description, lol.

In-game pics would be better than those. If I have to choose from those pics - old school it is.

Thank you for the better pics. I'll stick to the old look, but I don't have any problems if you guys want to change them.
-
I would go with the new. See, I'm all for "What if the DEVS instead of going all-new-gameplay in 3.x version just made a few adjustments in 2.x version with a new/old engine?". To make it fresh. To change the game (to make it better) instead of the gameplay.
I'm all for the new.

I'm all for the new.
America's Army in its 2.00 version was released in November 2003, and last patched in April 2009. Considering that is a quite wide live support timelapse for a game, the game actually reached a certain maturity around 2.5 or maybe 2.6.
AA3 probably was in development at least since a couple years before, and by 2009 AA2 reached many limits due to its age. Also, AA2 has some technical limits that are bounded to the software age, and while the engine was probably a powerful tool back in 2003, as of today it's simply outdated in many ways (one of the most obvious ones is the higher load on cpu, due to a low use of the graphic processor power).
Lucky enough, what matters is not just how the game performs but how it actually feels when being played. So, i can't blame the Army for stopping developing AA2 (i would just blame them for stopping supporting it). Blaming over AA3 poor gameplay...well it's going to be 3 years old in July, something has changed, just not as deep as expected. Oh, they made the game actually playable, kudos for that [/sarcasm]
P.s. try take a look at AA3 poor characters animations, then look at the decent, AA2 ones. I can't find one animation that looks natural in AA3. The whole character body seems to be connected in a wierd way...
-
Skrewy, we have already established that it's possible a while ago, that's why there is a poll.
-
I'm too hxc to read posts, and in the ones I did read u where all like screenshots from AA3 and AA3 this and I was like, aa2 that aa2 this and spanky wasnt online and I know he missed me, and then I was like aa2 digimon camo this
:D lolz.

DIGI camo have also more colors what i've seen. The Dutch Army is gonna use in a few years a new digital camo color, here a link: http://www.tangodown.nl/forum/thread-2218.html

dont try to look the game better..delete useless maps like mountain pass SE, bridge SE, taiga, arctic, blizzard, village etc etc .. some of those maps have servers that nobody will play it anyday..if u delete them, they will have to pick maps that people play, making every1 addicted to AA again.
aa25assist was an awesome idea, GJ and now please, if u can control the game, then make what the dev's didnt...listen to community and improve gameplay and competition..
keep the good work, every1 will comeback for sure

If you really think those maps should be removed, start your own poll and get people to come here and vote. If it's popular, we will do it.
Personally I think it's a fucking stupid idea but let's see what the community thinks.
-
Wow, amazing idea to delete all "useless" maps and decide what ppl "want" to play. That probably keeps the community and AA alive.

I think that is a terrible idea. I feel that as the people who ultimately control the fate of the game you have some responsibility to keep its integrity and not give in to the noobs who play nothing but Urban, WC, and IC. These suggestions shouldn't even make it to a poll.
-
Taiga is a pretty badass map. I'm willing to bet the people who don't like the other maps only looked at the screenshot.
-
Why would you even bother about thinking of deleting or making unusable maps content that aside of its quality also makes for variety? Content that already resides on your hdd once you install AA 2.5...
Quite a big nono.
-
I think that is a terrible idea.
I do too but we should be fair and democratic with suggestions from users.
-
i dont mean to decide what people wants to play but i often used to see servers empty on AA2 on maps like recon, taiga and when there was players playing on it it was a pub 3v3 or 4v4.. i like bridge SE, i like arctic, very good cenarios and briefings but will u ever see a TWL-I final on Arctic ? or blizzard ? they probably wont even show up in regular season map list..people like the oldschool maps..
have you ever been msged on MSN scrim account saying: scrim 4v4 recon?
HAHAHAHA
-

Strange how u didn't mention Bridge, the most hated map by u all :D

Bridge is a given though.

im not the one who is going to decide, nowhere near..we are a community..it was an idea, a thought, not appreciated by any of u
-

Why would such a thing be appreciated? Getting rid of variety is not going to do anything. There are plenty of empty servers on popular maps. The maps aren't the problem.
-
Yes it really is a strange idea. I mean do you have problems with those maps? Do they scare people away? Perhaps they could be useless sometimes, but that's no reason for deleting them o.O
-
major skrewup, ur trying to flame me but i am not going in ur wave.. aa2 was all about creating drama but if it depends on me, that won't happen again so stop acting like a badass inet gangsta
-
btw when you guys will upload to the game new camo?
-
i'm up for updating the camo, if spanky knows how?
-
I would have to investigate ripping the 2.8 player skins and importing them into 2.5 and seeing how they line up. It could be as simple as that or we might have to create skins in photoshop from scratch which would be a bitch.
-
I look to the pictures i prefer digital camo, I'm curious how border will look in digital. however in AA3 the visibility to find the enemy is more difficult than to find one in woodland/desert camo style. If it is nothing that digital hope we can vote to turn it back.
greating Vanoke
-
If someone can give me the utx texture files or the dds files for the character skins I can try it.
-
Uploading the 2 T-Characters from 2.8 to dropbox dev folder now. It's 121MB o.O
-
I'll get to it at some point, school has been keeping me busy.
-
if we need a custom one hit me up
-
some news about the camo guys? how's it going?
-
Havent touched anything AA related because I have a lot of other stuff to do first.

Same here except I probably won't work on AA for a while. I've lost interest. Life is keeping me busy enough, I don't need to spend time making things for a game I don't even enjoy playing.
-
My vote goes for the new one 8)
-
I had a quick look at this yesterday because I had the time. It is possible to quickly and easily change the current forest (maps like Weapons Cache, River Basin, etc) and desert (maps like Border, Urban Assault, etc) camo. America's Army 2.8 only had forest digi camo. I can add forest and desert digi camo.
Digi camo for SF maps need a little bit more work because they don't use the same textures and character models.
If I work on anything I'll add pictures here.
-
good to hear, this'll be interesting

Not sure if I posted this already but it's highly relevant. Me, in AA, in a hawaiian shirt, in a mario map:

30 years old justin bieber ? :P
That would be too normal :-D.
It is 30 years old justin bieber, who travelled back in time, then raped young michael jackson (that's why he later developed issues), then travelled forward in time, then killed chuck norris, ripped his face skin off, and put on his own head... That's what we see in this picture, this is really sick and nasty beast :-DDDD

are tubes in the mario map usable lol?

wasnt this the beginning of the project with that voice lip movement and u had the guy singing the song?
lol yeah that was me

When Spanky made the map we both thought a 2d platform map would be fun to play. We never made it. We always come up with ideas for puzzle based maps but never make them :P

You guys flatter me too much.
-
why i cant vote?
-
Voting is closed. The majority voted yes, now we just need a dev that's not busy (lazy) to implement it.
-
or a member of the community to do the texture work and then ask a dev to test/impliment it?
We already have the textures though.
-
Partially complete. Left is woodland camo, middle & right are desert camo. Woodland and SF are not finished. The SF skins take more work.

Damn! Making me jealous with those skills :D Looks great.

Nice work!
