Yes--fun in its way. But, really now, there are no other games but Civ.

I'm not sure if I have enough resources to meet the minimum requirements. Eventually I will try this.

Fun, but very hard to use a regular M-16 and hit anything.

I'd have to look up the review in my computer gaming world. But it is above a 1 ghz machine. I still have a P3 700  .

I still have a P2 400  It has a GeForce, 512meg RAM, a 40 gig HD and a 16x50 (IIRC) DVD drive. Would be fine if the processor wasn't so annoyingly slow 
When you get slowdown on Alpha Centauri, you know you're computer needs upgrading

527 in points?
Well points aren't really as important as honor. I'm at 11, so still fresh. Had to crawl up from 9 though, cause I fragged a few teammates.

here is the system requirements for America's Army: Special Forces v2.0
As reviewed in my issue of Computer gaming world that just came in today. This is actually an update of the original american's army, but I suspect the requirements are similar if not the same.
required: Pentium III 1.3 GHz, 256 MB RAM, 64MB 3D card, 1.62GB install, 56k modem
recommended: 512MB RAM, 128MB 3D card, broadband internet service.

I suppose the game's intent is to serve as a recruiting tool for the army. For me however its having the opposite effect. Considering each round lasts like 5 minutes usuallly, and I usually get my ass shot, it doesn't give me much confidence in joining the army.
I'll parachute out of a plane on some mission and get myself shot within 5 minutes. Thats what I expect from the army. hehe.

Do you crawl? Also, work with your team mates. What are they for, if not to act as human shields and decoys?

Yea i know, I'm not bad. Even so, most of the rounds don't last long. *most* people get shot within 5 minutes. Thats all i'm saying.

Most games only last about 5 minutes.
