The American Army has closed their publicly-staffed
America's Army 3 development studio one day after the free-to-play action-recruitment-sim was launched on
Steam. According to Shacknews, development will
continue in an office somewhere in Redstone, Alabama, presumably under complete military control (rumours persisted throughout
AA3's development of internal discourse, with several high-profile, long-term staffers departing under mysterious circumstances):
"This consolidation will allow us to gain
efficiencies between our public and government applications," the
representative explained. " We appreciate all the hard work that every
member of the America's Army team has contributed to the project, and
we look forward to delivering future America's Army game releases in
the months ahead."
As for the game itself, the launch has been
less than fantastic.
