How old are you anyway? You must have some kind of advanced education to make a game like this!

Well I don't want to give away too much personal info lol. Even though I am a qualified professional developer I learned all my games stuff myself by spending bloody ages hammering away at C and C++.

If you want to learn games coding then look into Allegro http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro, Allegro is a game programming library. On the Allegro site it should tell you about what C compilers you can use, I recommend MS Visual C 6 Standard which is dirt cheap.

Because people nowadays thinks the U.S forces are the strongest of all military standards?

Im pretty sure you mentioned that in mission briefings and the main story, but I'll have to check since you probably proved me wrong the way you said that lol

Yeah take a look for US in the game, you won't find it.

America is pretty meaty at the moment but surely the sheer size of their armed forces has something do with it.

Anyway Meteor is "cleverly designed" to allow for anybody in any country to be able to relate to their player and allies. There are no country/political based sides.

I mean why do you think that nobody plays America's Army outside of the US (and I mean nobody)? If Meteor was England or US based it would not be as popular as it is.

Actually, i play it and atleast half of the ppl i meet are from Europe or Australia or some other place. Its a pretty realistic and kool game, so who cares what the title is?
