I am TRYING to DL as I type this, 203 MB. But it keeps kicking me off their server. Anyone able to DL it yet? Maybe we can host the file here at WOF for those interested WOF members? Downloading this thing has been tough, 28k/s max at Nvidia. Anyone know of a faster more reliable DL site?
I would like to get some AA action in sometime this weekend.

I was finally able to get it from Fileplanet. Haven't played it yet, going to celebrate 4th of July with family.
I think it would be great if you could put it on the WOF site for the other WOF members that have not DLit yet.
Maybe post the link by email as opposed to public viewing? If you post the URL publicly, then the WOF server will be JAMMED. Just a thought.
Thanks Gator.

it's on it's way. It will take a while since my DSL upload speed is a trickle. I'll give the url out by ICQ to anyone who's interested.

I tried it out this morning, it's way cool. The marksmanship range is pretty tough - you actually have to aim
I think the realism will tend to "abate" the CS kiddies...

I played through a little bit of AA training last night. Very very cool. I like how when you are on the Rifle Qual course, and you look through the sights, your guy is actually taking deep breaths in between shots. The rear sight moves with the breathing, thus making you readjust your sight to hit the target.
I made Sharpshooter and missed expert by ONE SHOT! I was like DAMN DAMN DAMN. I will try for expert at a later time, I just want to get through all the training courses for now.
I will play around with AA a little more today. Hope to catch you all online for some AA action sometime.
