Published by Florence Espinoza on Mar 17, 2009

MURNAU, GERMANY, March 17, 2009 - TeamSpeak Systems GmbH, developer of cutting edge voice communication software and integrated solutions, announced today the integration of TeamSpeak 3 voice communication software within America's Army 3 (AA3). America's Army 3 is the only free action game that delivers an authentic and entertaining Army experience by reflecting the training, technology, actions and career advancement of a Soldier within a unique exciting game experience. The game will be released by the U.S. Army in 2009 and as with previous versions of America's Army, AA3 will be constantly updated to include new features and missions and to highlight cutting-edge technologies being incorporated in today's Army.

 

"Current America's Army players use TeamSpeak 2 with great success as it offers them the clear voice communication they need for effective teamwork," said Michael Bode, America's Army Executive Producer. "The quality of the TeamSpeak products simply can't be beaten. TeamSpeak 3 is becoming the default third-party VOIP solution on the PC platform. It offers us so many exciting features, and we plan to take advantage of them all, some in the initial release and others later with each AA3 expansion pack."

 

Using the state-of-the-art Unreal Engine 3, America's Army game developers brought the most popular trademark gameplay features from the previous versions to AA3. Highlights include authentic weapons and technologies, realistic training and exciting gameplay missions. AA3 provides players new insights into the Army and Soldiering while making the game easier to play, easier to install and easier to download.

 

"TeamSpeak 3 provides America's Army with a very high quality VOIP system that will make America's Army 3 an even better product," said Bill Perez, lead programmer for AA3. "The TeamSpeak 3 Software Development Kit made the integration of TeamSpeak 3's VOIP system into America's Army 3 very fast and easy. The excellent documentation, fast technical support, and easy to follow sample code all combined to make the process of integrating TeamSpeak 3 into America's Army 3 an efficient and cost-effective way to add quality VOIP."

 

AA3 highlights different aspects of the Army from Army Values and the Warrior Ethos to Army career opportunities and lifestyles both on and off duty. Through their in-game characters, AA3 players will be able to experience the ways Soldiers train, live, and advance in the Army. AA3 players will also experience different types of technologies and equipment used by the Army's high-tech Soldier. Players are bound by Rules of Engagement (ROE) and gain experience as they navigate challenges in team-based, multiplayer, force on force operations. In the game, as in the Army, accomplishing missions requires teamwork and adherence to the seven Army Core Values. In the game, a player's actions and demonstrated Army values will have consequences that are integral to success in gameplay and will affect a player's career progression.
