America's Army: Operations by U.S. Army - Recon playable demo

The 'Recon' version is the real deal. It's an eye-popping, jaw-dropping package
of gaming goodness that includes:

- 4 single player maps (including Basic Training, Obstacle Course, Rifle
Marksmanship, and more)
- 6 multiplayer maps (at least five different terrains, as well as MILES
missions), including a homeland defense operation, urban training, freeing
prisoners, and protecting against an act of ecological terrorism.
- tours with the 10th Mountain Division and 172d Infantry Brigade
- and much, much more!


-taken from the 3d gamers site. Any word from somebody who's got it if this is just the demo?

taken from their website:

At last, an answer to the burning question: when are you going to get your hands on America?s Army? In response to your overwhelming demand, our development team has been busy putting together something to satisfy your gaming needs this summer: a ?Recon? version of America?s Army: Operations!

Folks, this ain?t a beta. And it certainly isn?t a video trailer. The ?Recon? version is the real deal. It's an eye-popping, jaw-dropping package of gaming goodness that includes:

single player maps (including Basic Training, Rifle Marksmanship, and more)
multiplayer maps (at least five different terrains, as well as MILES missions)
tours with the 10th Mountain Division and 172d Infantry Brigade
and much, much more!
The ?Recon? version should keep you occupied until the complete America?s Army suite is available later this summer. But this is only the beginning, troops! In the upcoming weeks, you?ll get to try your hands at completing Sniper School ? or better yet, U.S. Army Airborne School! How about Ranger School?
Okay, soldiers. Prepare to copy! The ?Recon? version of AA:eek: will be made available for download on 4 July, at 0001 hours. So mark your calendars, clear your summer schedule, and get ready for an action-packed experience of your America?s Army!

uh.. i thought the whole thing is supposed to come out tomorrow?? oh well. at least they released something..

Dakata there are 2 games being made, this is just the first. The 2nd is more of an RPG.

I don't think this is a demo, should be the full deal. All the other sites just say AA: Operations download.

About 30 more min on this download. Gonna be the first real game to use the new build of the Unreal Engine :)

Hey, sounds cool. Let us know how it is in your opinion, so I can know if it's worth downloading on my 56K dialup. :)

It would probably be downloading at 350KB/s if it weren't for the AT&T cap.
