Hey yall! Well, I just downloaded AA3. Every time I try to log in it says it cant log in... I have been trying to see if its a firewall thing but I already turned my firewall off ,the only other thing I have that I think might stop me from getting on is User Account Control which I don't totally know what it is I just know that when I try to get on AA3 it says do you want to allow this program access to your computer, I say yes but I can't turn the whole program off right now for some reason. :/
I mean it might be something else but I have tried every single password/user name that I would use, I have clicked on forgot login/password and typed in my e-mail and it says data error. Also, when I type in my user name and password there is no text... plus I am not using steam I am just using the deploy client and I downloaded from the people that were on AmericasArmy.com to download from... Everyone else seems to be using this steam thing, should I just uninstall AA3 and use steam? Ahhhhh!!!! Can anyone help me!?!?! I am so lost!
Thanks! ~Brittany Rae~

okay. brae. calm down. breathheeee. okay. now that youve calmed. right now. the AA auth servers are down. so that would explain why you cant login. none of us can. how ever. if you look on the menu to log in. youll hit "play offline" i recommend that to familurize yourself with the maps if you have any questions you know how to contact me.

Have you registered your username with AA3 yet? (We had a thread about pre-registering a while ago, don't remember if you replied to that or not, and I'm too busy lazy to go look now ;D.) If you haven't registered your AA2 screenname for use in AA3 yet, you'll have to do that before you can log in to AA3 using that name. I'm still downloading AA3 -- I got that Steam pre-load last week, but that apparently only gave the first 50% or so ... when I went back in today, it started downloading again ... currently at 62% . I'm off to watch a DVD with Princess ... I'll be back later tonight for some .

Yeah I thought the pre-load really was a pre-load, but Steam was being ornery and chopped my download and then decide that it can't decrypt my files because everyone wanted to at the same time tonight Then I tried using deploy, and I got it downloaded, then it deleted the file because it was corrupted In other words, i wasted pretty much my entire evening trying to install this. I can only hope that when I wake up tomorrow, Deploy will have done its job and given me a working copy of the game...

AA3 is not good on my computer. I can log in and do all the stuff (training/multiplayer) but the graphics are HORRIBLE! And I mean its bad. Instead of improved HD gaming, it is all smoothed over and almost a bit foggy. Plus, many of the textures (on all maps) have purple and yellow pixily squares sticking out of them. O, ya, and none of the player skins load. I tried setting video settings to both lowest and highest and it did not help: ANY Ideas?

I'd like to help, but when I tried it, the mouse was so laggy that I couldn't play. I'll continue to play with some of my settings, but right now, it isn't looking good for me and AA3.

I was able to get it running, haven't really played with it much. Just wanted to add an update for the original post in this thread, as a follow-up to my previous post: if you did pre-register, check the email that you received from support@pr-sol.com at that time -- your new password for your AA3 account will be in that email (it will not be the same as your current AA2 account password, unless/until you change the password [which you should be able to do through SETTINGS > ACCOUNT, although I'm having trouble getting that to work, for some reason ]).

Well, I'm not too impressed thus far. I've completed the first two training missions (obstacle & rifle range) 2-4 times each, but the progress has not been recorded on my player stats. The only way I got to the rifle range was by clicking "continue" after successfully completing the obstacle course; if I completed the obstacle course and went to the main menu, the obstacle course was still showing as incomplete and the rifle range and other training missions as locked/unavailable . (I did pretty well on them my last times through, too ... bummer that it doesn't count .) Hope they get it fixed soon . UPDATE, 0134EDT -- apparently the training issue is being caused by an overload of the AUTH server. Guess I'll try again in the morning, when "normal" people have to go to work (I love my weirdo weekends ;D). Just hope I can manage to qualify for the "Physical Fitness Expert" badge on the obstacle course again like I did on my last try (1:03:39 !).

Not lookin' good for me and AA3 x( I was able to get some personal support form AA staff and they said that it is a video card problem. They recommended to make sure all drivers are updted, I am doing that now, and I'll let you know how it goes.

Yep, AUTH is still down (even after an 8-hour wait ) ... getting antsy to finish the training ... but can't even start the game (except in offline mode, which doesn't help).

Day one didn't look too good for the game. I'm kinda disappointed at the makers of AA3 if it has all these problems why release it and why not have enough servers to handle everything. I hope they fix it all to make the game better. AA3 wont last too long if it is this bad.

I hope they fix it all to make the game better. AA3 wont last too long if it is this bad. Just give it time. From what I've heard, the Devs didn't anticipate so many players the first day. And I bet AA 1.0 was even more buggy when it came out. Don't quote me on that though! Side note, I'm running the game just fine, and it's quite enjoyable. All I need now is a mouse smoothing option so I can aim properly!!

Does this mean that I have to run AA3 if I want to run on our servers or are we staying on 2.8.5?

Hey Everyone! I need help! Again... I am so lost with this new version... Two things: 1. I have still not been able to get on AA3 on my computer, last night my brother uninstalled AA3 with the deploy client and then installed it with Steam and still I cant get on... I did find my password and username that I saved in advanced but I cant get past the login it always kicks me off and says AA3 is not responding... *sigh* plus even with trying steam I still cannot see any of the letters that I type when I type in my username and password plus all the gray boxes that say login and such also have no text in them... 2. My brother just downloaded AA3 last night/this morning and he said it didnt work with steam so he unistalled AA3 with steam and installed AA3 with the deploy client and I actually logged in on my account on his computer but could not make it past the selection of my soldier it says "Retrieving personnel jacket for soldier Singer-=Of-God=-, communicating with AA authentication system" and then it crashes and stops responding... Now, my brother is using Windows 7 operating system so he thinks that might have something to do with his problems... I dont think it does but... what do I know? (nothing obviously... LOL) I could get on my brothers comp in offline mode in it worked just fine... whereas my computer kicked me off AA after a few minutes of offline mode... Can anyone help me!?!?! Thanks! ~Brittany Rae~

Sam: Jeff confirmed that at least for now, our servers will be running 2.8.5. So no, you do not need 3.0 at this time.
Brittany: First off, AUTH is down. That's why you cannot login. Second, I tried Steam, and AA kept crashing on me. Then I tried Deploy Client, and haven't crashed so far.
So, on your computer, you say it keeps crashing in offline mode. Are you using Steam, or deploy client? Also what's your system specs?
And last but not least, make sure your video card drivers are updated.
