Is there any way to still play AA2?

That's a good question for which I do not have an answer. I haven't been able to play for several weeks now and just thought it was me. Perhaps not. Let me see what I can find out.
Here is the scoop direct from the developers:
DISCONTINUE AUTHENTICATION SUPPORT FOR AMERICA'S ARMY 2 Posted: 1 DEC 11, by Phoenix
Over the past nine years more than 12 million registered players have fired billions of rounds as they played in millions of matches. These stats clearly show how hugely successful America's Army 2 has been. Our goal for the future is to make the current America's Army game and future releases even more successful than those in the past, and we're determined to see that happen.
For that reason, as we move forward we are concentrating all our resources on future releases of the game. Unfortunately this means that as of December 18, 2011, we will no longer be supporting the authentication system or statistics tracking for America's Army 2. The game will still be available to play in free-play mode, without Honor points being accrued. AA2 will still be the same game, with the same action and same fun. Matches can still be held and competitions won and lost. Just without the point system.
We hope our long time AA2 fans understand that this decision is in the best interest of the development of America's Army and its players as a whole. We hope they continue to enjoy the 2 series as long as they like. If you need help with AA2 please refer to the AA2 Online Game Manual or the Forum Archive, or email us at AACM@americasarmy.com.
I don't know what "free-play" mode means, have reached out to the email address shown to find out and will post when they respond.
UPDATE - found out what "free-play" means. You can go directly to an IP address for a server with the OPEN command but you can't authenticate anymore... I guess our server is now dead?

I was hoping that AA2 would have survived through my four years of school so that I would be able to start playing again! I did end up buying a nice desktop that handles AA3 well so i guess I can play that instead...

Well, that day I knew would come came today... I removed AA2 from my PC. It is too hard to play anymore without the assistance of centralized authorization. And I don't have a PC that is beefy enough to play AA3 so it looks like my America's Army playing days are over... It's been a good run...
