America's Army

Post by Spinning Hat »

The Marksmanship Pack is available for Ammeri's Army folks! Sniper school is open, it has an ingame Browser, and all kinds of cool stuff. No more Gamespy! WooHoo! Bug, I hope to see you on some servers now, eh? Also, the MOUT online Training Req. has been eliminated. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

OK- So I downloaded and installed this update. and I got a chance to re-qualify on the M16-A2 Rifle, and I scored expert! W00t For me. So I go into the Sniper school, and OMFG! It is the hardest shooting that I've ever attempted in a Game. I only hit 5 of 20 targets in the Familiarization part of the training, and you only get 1 shot in your test. 1 shot- 1 kill. Pass or fail. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :o --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif ALT=":o"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> It's hard, but incredibly fun. I'm going to keep at it till I'm qualified on the M24. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

Well, I did it. I managed to qualify on both the M24 and M82 Sniper rifles! Now only if I can find some fun maps with good sniper perches.... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :evil --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/devil.gif ALT=":evil"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

The Insurgence camp has a couple. Though people usually get right up on the hills as the assault team.

Well Excuse me, mr. Army man.... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> It was tough with the targeting on the M24. The 800M shots are tough, especially when you know you're aiming for the head, and you hit the torso because of the range. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>

I keep trying to get the damn rifle on a Game server, but all the choices are "Not Available". I AM Qualified, and I have transmitted my results in, so I am able to use the Sniper rifles, but have been unable to thus far. <p><div align="center"><embed width="250" height="200" src="http://www.theta_mercenaries.homestead.com/files/sphat.swf"></div><p align=center><font color=#ff0000>Why Do I Always Die?!?!?!?!</font></p></p><i></i>
