No Online Mods?
Posted by Rocky on Sunday, April 20 2003
A new patch to be issued by the developers of Battlefield 1942 might strike fear into the heart of Ghost Recon fans as it may have implications for Ghost Recon 2. In an attempt to rid the B1942 communtiy of cheats - the developers have coded a patch that will not allow any client side mods to run during online games.

"With the release of patch 1.4, we are disabling all client-side mods. Unfortunately, this means that the client side mods that aren't used for cheating will also be affected" DICE and EA

Discuss this move in our forums here.

Splinter Cell 2
Posted by Rocky on Saturday, April 19 2003
I know more than a few Ghost Recon fans like to relax with some stealthy  Splinter Cell action. Well, hang tight because we can confirm the sequel is being worked on, and it will be called Splinter Cell : Shadow Strike. There are no other details at this point, but we will keep digging for more information, and post it at agr-s.com.

Check out this article for an interesting read on the use of computer games in military training.

"As the military embraces electronic games as a training tool, a growing number of soldiers are fighting in a virtual Iraq war even as they remain stateside. For many soldiers, the increasingly realistic simulations often seem like the closest thing to being in combat."

=SeALZ= have produced a remarkable Training Manual that will be of interest to all Ghost Recon fans keen on improving their skills. It covers a huge range of topics. The only thing I have seen of similar detail was from those serious gamers over at TacticalGamer.com, indeed there was TacticalGamer involvement in the production of this new =SeALZ= Manual.

Fans of SOTO Macs Sniper Report will recognise another section of the Manual. Congratulations to Skinz, Crowman and Nomad of  =SeALZ= Europe on their achievement with this in-depth document.
