I doubt very much that any of the posters in this forum will tire anytime soon.

It's gonna take a major effort from some company in the future to topple this beast, as far as I can see there's nothing on the horizon that will even come close.

So, I will place my order for VBS 1 as soon as I recieve my paycheck, and then it's bye bye Americas Army.

You won't regret it! If your looking for the best combat game of... ever, you found it!

I haven't really been following the whole VBS1 deal but I've seen some pictures and you guys seem to really like it. My question is, if it's so popular and such a great game why aren't they marketing it and trying to make it more mainstream? I know [OFP: DR] will be out eventually but it seems to me they could make some money actually selling this to people before [OFP: DR] comes out. No? :huh:

It's not a "game", if you look at the developer's website. Yeah, we play it as such, but it's not intended for us, honestly. It's supposed to be a simulator, and it's in use by the Australian Defense Forces, USMC school of infantry, US Secret Service, Army National Guard, and scores of other departments, governments and private companies. That's why you don't see it cheaper. I heard from a good source that the USMC add-on is like $50 for the ADF, and the USMC themselves (the very target of the add-on) pays like $350 a copy! Hence, you won't be seeing this for $50 anytime soon... :D

How does it work if I would get over a used copy anyway?

You people mentioned there is a cd-key, so if one person uses the cd-key it is stored and can not be used by another person if the game is sold...or is it just like a normal cd-key....only need to have it upon installation?

The key is a 128-bit Encrypted USB "dongle" as it's referred to, must be present while the game is running
