In this game two commands. Alpha Team and Bravo Team. But it does not matter what team you choose, your enemies will always be Russian, and you'll always American.

All of the things you can get away with in other FPS will absolutely not fly in this game. It has a very smart and loyal playerbase. No futuristic guns or jetpacks here. Also, the squeakers know what the hell they're doing. This game will teach you that communication is key in order to win. You'll be lost but if you ask, someone will teach you the basics. Great community.

Welcome to the Army guys! This game is used as a recruitment tool for the U.S Army, I was a little skeptical to try this game since it is a “recruitment tool” and being a Navy veteran myself I know how “Gung Ho” those tools are. Between every match there is a short video explaining different parts of the Army and what they do, that’s where the recruitment ends! Once you start playing there isn’t any advertisements or annoying facts. The game itself is incredibly entertaining, you are split up into different teams (Alpha, and Bravo), There are certain mission types like defuse the C4, ambush VIP, extract classified documents, and several more. This game is focused in TEAMWORK, if you land in a great team where everyone talks and plans their routes it can be incredibly fun, but if you are in a team where people just rush out without coordinating you will have a frustrating time, this is not a game you can “SOLO”. Now where this game truly stands out for me is the community, for the most part the people you will meet are polite, helpful, and just fun to play with. Most servers have rules against racism, vulger language, and exploits, those rules are ENFORCED! It all adds up to a great community to play with and once you get into the rhythm the hours will fly on by. I found myself spending hours completing challenges just so I could get a cool looking skin for my M24. Only drawback for me was that I was hoping for a more diverse selection of weapons but IT IS A FREE GAME, so I cannot complain too much. 9/10

A very well made realistic first person shooter filled with real life weaponry, real life tactics, and exciting battles this game will surely teach you a thing or two about how the army works.

At first when i saw this game i tought ''Meh, nothing interesting, nothing new.'' Boy was i... wrong? You see, this game is nothing revolutionary, but i just can't not like it, i don't know why. The 3 main reasons i play this game are not what you would expect: 1 - The community. This community is amazing, no exageration. Everybody is nice, people actually talk quite often, i've met and seen about 5-6 cool guys in my 4 hours i played this game the first day i got it. 2 - The viewmodel and crosshair. If you played CS:GO before, you will love them. They just feel and look so good, you don't have your weapon shoved in your face, and the crosshair is nice and clean, excellent. 3 - The gameplay. It's actually pretty good, and fun too, you would expect a low killtime in this game, but that's not the case. You can revive teammates 2 times! And you can heal your 'bleeding' damage with bandages. The only complaints i have: -Not many people playing, i sometimes can't find a server close to me with players on it. -And the fact that i got my first kill after i died like 8 times. In other games i get my first kill first, then my first death, here it was VERY hard to get my first kill, as there is no tutorial shoved in your face when you start the game for the first time, you have to look for it to find it, so yeah, i didn't look for it. In conclusion, it's a game really worth trying out!
